Pork Loin would like a word.

Brisket gets the glory. Ribs get the attention. Sausage knows how to make an entrance.

Meanwhile, pork loin is over here being tender, smoky, delicious, and somehow staying out of everybody’s business.

No drama. No fuss. Just good BBQ.

Maybe it’s time we checked in on Pork Loin 😉

Tuesday’s looking a whole lot better with this one.

Chopped brisket, crispy fried jalapeños, lime crema, and fresh lime wedges come together for a smoky, crunchy bite with just the right kick.

If you haven’t tried it yet, consider this your Tuesday reminder.

🎉🥧 WEEKLY PIE FEATURE: MARBLED CONFETTI CHEESECAKE 🥧🎉

This week’s pie is extra special because it comes from AND for a very special Lead Baker.

Julia’s birthday is just one week away, and because she’s amazing at what she does, she made her own birthday pie. And honestly, it couldn’t be more Julia.

Meet the Marbled Confetti Cheesecake.

An Oreo crust topped with marbled cheesecake, whipped topping, and plenty of rainbow sprinkles.

Help us wish Julia an early happy birthday and come celebrate with a slice!

🔥🥙 SATURDAY POP-UP FEATURE: BRISKET GYRO 🥙🔥

Our kitchen crew is bringing back an old favorite this Saturday, with a little Mediterranean twist on Whatcha Smokin’ Brisket.

Chopped brisket piled into a warm pita with crisp romaine, juicy tomato, pickled red onion, feta crumbles, and finished with cool tzatziki to bring the whole thing together.

BBQ meets gyro, and we’re pretty darn happy about it.

Available this Saturday while it lasts!

🎉👀 WEEKLY PIE PEEK: BIRTHDAY EDITION 👀🎉

This week’s Pie Peek is extra special because we’re celebrating Julia’s birthday!

And when you’re the best at what you do, you make your own birthday pie.

So what did our Lead Baker dream up for her own celebration?

Here’s your hint: Think classic birthday celebration. 🎂🎉 A little burst of birthday color, two flavors that have been sharing birthday tables forever, and Julia turned the whole party into a pie.

Any guesses what the birthday girl made?
