Black Betty BBQ

What a world we live in to one be day dealt some crap from the worst of humans to the next where the most beautiful of humans put their hand straight out to help. Of course they wouldn't take no as an answer so I cant thank you guys enough.
Rhan and Jorian Tangaere turned up out if no where with a couple brand new heaters to keep our customers warm and yes its bloody cold!
And then the legend Matt from Ohmen Electrical
With another.
Now before anyone says it, theres no insurance with these as the excess is 2.5k for theft, and these are probably $1500 worth, which i probably just wouldn't have replaced this quick thays for sure.
Anyhow, thank you guys for being awesome humans and cant wait to catchup over some bbq n beers sometime soon 🙏

Last night between 10.30 & 11.30 these loser crackers came n stole our outdoor heaters. Wrestling that heaters off the wall with his life and probably damaging the filament inside tearing them off their mounts what you thinking you silly fools what good are they ? I have tonnes of footage and when youre found ill happily take your dole bludging $5 a week in reparation. Share this far and wide,

Also is anyone missing a ryobi angle grinder? That'll be stolen too id say

What a way to welcome the coming warmer days with a nice crispy Alpha Domus Beatrix Sparkling Rose. 250ml beautiful cans and pairs beautifully with the new Truffle mac n cheese! The Olde Saloon Bar

Couple new changes to our restaurant menu which is now the one and only menu throughout the whole venue. Unfortunately the cornstar & Bam ba lamb have retired but now Smokey blue is sitting proud next to the spicy fried chicken sandwich. We also have changed up the sweetcorn mac n cheese to a creamy truffle mac with a crispy parmesan panko 🤤

Little fact about our double smash;

Back in 2019/2020 when I first started we were merely a gazebo and smoker on the street, the humble double smash was only $12 (wouldn't be in business still if it stayed that price🤣😶) and every part of that same burger (Infact all burgers) are exactly the same today.

Organic smashed ground beef (specific recipe)
Habanero mustard
Fresh brioche baked each morning
Ketchup never tomato sauce
McLure Pickles
Finely diced onion

The key to a great burger is simplicity, quality, ex*****on
