Hickory Pit Stop BBQ will be closed on Memorial Day
as we pause from the smoke and the sizzle to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom. Their sacrifice is the reason we can gather with family, fire up the pit, and live in the country we love.

May we remember them with GRATITUDE, RESPECT, and PRIDE.
Wishing everyone a meaningful Memorial Day.

Due to the overwhelming amount of love & support from our customers, we are already close to selling out on most of your favorite meats!

With this in my mind, we have decided to close early tonight at 6pm! Why 6pm? Because our nextdoor neighbors the Evansville Otters are on 6 game win streak!!!

In all seriousness, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause! We will take this time & the holiday tomorrow, to restock on our mouth watering BBQ!

WE WILL RESUME REGULAR HOURS TUESDAY!

Ladies & Gentlemen,

HAPPY OPENING DAY! Today is a very special day for our next door neighbors, the Evansville Otters! They look to capture another championship this season as they did just 10 years ago!

GREAT NEWS!!! You can come in for our mouth watering BBQ & receive one ticket per customer as we have a limited supply. The wonderful thing about those tickets is a small portion goes back to our other lovely neighbors Dream Center Evansville, who does AMAZING work for our community!

BASEBALL IS BACK IN JACOBSVILLE!!!!
