Well… guess who’s coming back outside. 👀🔥

Starting Monday, August 31st, the Straight Mountain Foods trailer is officially hitting the road again.

Yep. We’ve got Redemption rolling, catering still doing its thing, and apparently we decided life wasn’t chaotic enough… so we’re bringing the food trailer back too. 🤣

We’ll be announcing where we’re headed, what days we’ll be out, and what kind of foolishness is coming out of that window very soon.

Some of y’all have been asking when the trailer was coming back.

Monday. August 31st.

The wheels are turning again. 🔥

All I’m saying is the guys in the kitchen cooked by far the best steak I’ve ever eaten last night. This steak version is only at the restaurant til Saturday night then we cycle something else next week. It’s not my fault if you miss out on the best steak you’ve ever eaten 🤷‍♂️🤣😎🤤😏

Breaking News:

Butter has officially entered the transfer portal.

It has been replaced by lump crab and Cream sauce.

Our thoughts are with anyone still arguing over pats of butter while this is sitting on the menu.

Steak Oscar.
12oz hand-cut ribeye.
Lump crab.
Cream sauce.
Garlic Parmesan mashed potatoes.
Grilled asparagus.

Sometimes the scoreboard doesn’t need commentary. 📸🥩🦀

Everyone that’s been wondering here’s the best way to describe our new restaurant. We appreciate everyone that came during soft opening and we will officially be open tomorrow July 6th

Some of you have asked if Redemption is just R & R BBQ under a new name.

The answer is no.

When our food truck burned, R & R BBQ came to an end with it. That chapter of our story literally went up in flames. We could have rebuilt the same thing, but we chose to build something completely different.

Redemption was created to give us the freedom to cook beyond traditional barbecue.

You’ll still see our smoked meats throughout the menu because that’s part of who we are. But instead of being a restaurant dedicated to barbecue, we use those smoked meats as the foundation for creative sandwiches, comfort food, burgers, pastas, weekly specials, and dinner features that change regularly.

Think of it as Southern comfort food with a smoked meat twist.

Lunch is built around familiar favorites that feel like home. Dinner is where we turn up the creativity with what we like to call Culinary Chaos.

If you’re coming in expecting a traditional BBQ restaurant, you might be surprised.

If you’re coming in ready to try something different, welcome to Redemption.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us through this new chapter. We can’t wait to keep showing you what Redemption is all about.

The smoker didn’t retire… it just found a much bigger playground. 🔥

Soft opening is tonight. We will be fully open on July 6th 👀🤤😎😏

We heard billboards were expensive.
We found another way.
Redemption is opening July 6th. Come see what everyone’s talking about.

🚨 IT’S OFFICIAL. WE’RE APPROVED TO OPERATE. 🚨

The wait is almost over.

We’re planning to open the doors to Redemption on Monday, July 6th, and we couldn’t be more excited to finally welcome everyone into what we’ve been building.

With opening week right around the corner, we’re going to press pause on the Straight Mountain Foods trailer for a little while AFTER MONDAY JUNE 29th. We only get one chance to make a first impression, and we want to do it right. That means it’s going to be all hands on deck at the restaurant as we train our team, fine tune our systems, and make sure every plate that leaves the kitchen is something we’re proud to serve.

The trailer isn’t gone. It’s just taking a short break while we get Redemption off the ground.

To everyone who’s supported us through the food trailer, catering, and now this new chapter… thank you. You’ve helped turn a dream into a reality.

July 6th can’t get here fast enough.

🔥 A second chance is here.
🔥 Welcome to Redemption.

See y’all soon.
