About Restaurant

We’re a craft BBQ joint built around three things: undeniable hospitality, storytelling, and the perfect plate of BBQ done with pride. Our ambition is big—we want to become the NIKE of BBQ—not by chasing hype, but by earning loyalty one visit at a time.

From the moment you walk in, we focus on how you’re treated, how the experience feels, and how every detail comes together on the plate. We believe great BBQ is more than food; it’s a shared moment, a conversation, and a story you want to come back to.

You can expect a welcoming atmosphere, a team that takes pride in the experience, and BBQ that’s made to be remembered. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick bite or settling in with friends, we’re here to serve with consistency, warmth, and purpose—every single time.

We are looking for a hands-on Kitchen Team Member ready to grow into a kitchen leadership role. This position offers a clear path for someone eager to learn every station and eventually take ownership of running the kitchen.

Responsibilities Work the line during service, prepping ingredients and executing dishes with consistency and care. Maintain cleanliness standards, including dishwashing and general kitchen upkeep. As you grow into the role, take on leadership responsibilities such as writing staff schedules and placing supply and ingredient orders.

Requirements Willingness to work across all kitchen functions, from prep to line cook to cleaning duties. Strong work ethic and reliability. Ability to take initiative and grow into a leadership position over time. Comfortable working in a fast-paced kitchen environment.
