A dream in progress
I don’t want to just sell really good barbecue. I want people to remember the awesome time they had with the people they care about. I want them to come closer together and remember it’s about others. The taste of my barbecue will probably fade from memory, but the connection they made is what will last. That’s what I’m after.

05 / 06 · Rusty's Pitmasters BBQ
The great food is just a vehicle to getting you to enjoy time with your loved ones and friends.
My bbq tastes amazing (IMO 😜 ) but I want it clear that my passion and focus is that my bbq and what I am doing is for the purpose of bringing people together.

06 / 06 · Why
Above anything else I have a passion for bringing people together. In a world drowning in AI slop, disingenuous “connection“ over social media, I simply want to create a reason for people to be together. To experience something that is real and was created with talent FOR THEM.
Can you tell someone happy birthday in an email? Sure, but doesn’t it hit different if they write you a hand written note?
what I hope will always stay consistent is that what I provide is something more than just a meal or a bite to eat. It’s something I hope actually brings you together closer with those around you that you share it with.

Savor the smoke, share the moment
So when I officially start taking orders and you enjoy your time with your loved ones in your homes, know this is the dream you are helping build and why I am trying to build it. Savor the smoke, share the moment.

Thankfully in the age of AI, I made this rendering to try and capture that vision.
