Hello everyone! We have some exciting news to share. It has been a long and difficult road, and our team has been working endlessly on repairs to get everything just right.

We couldn't hold back any longer—we are so excited to announce that we are nearing the finish line! While there are still a few small puzzle pieces left to click into place, it’s looking like we will be ready to reopen and serve our community delicious BBQ again by the beginning of May!

Thank you all for your incredible patience and support. We truly can’t wait to see everyone again soon.

We have to know: What is the very first thing you’re ordering when our doors finally swing back open? 👇 Let us know in the comments!

Stay tuned for an official date!

Some difficult news, but a lot of gratitude. ❤️

As many of you may have heard, What's The Rub experienced a fire last night. While we are absolutely heartbroken, we are, first and foremost, incredibly grateful that everyone is safe.

The Current Situation:
Because of the damage, we have to temporarily close our doors while we assess the situation and begin the rebuilding process. We are resilient, and we are going to do everything in our power to get back to serving this community as soon as possible.

Our Gratitude:
We want to extend a massive thank you to the first responders who arrived so quickly and to everyone who has already reached out. Your support truly means the world to us.

We’ll be sharing updates on our progress right here. Thank you for standing with us—we can’t wait to welcome you back soon!

Objects in the photo are LARGER than they appear! 😱 We’re going to need a bigger bun... or maybe just a bigger plate.

Breaded fresh, fried to golden perfection, and guaranteed to make your table look tiny.

Unable to choose between brisket, wings, or pulled pork? We face the same dilemma, which is why our B.Y.O. platters offers the solution.

What is deterring you from trying our smoked chicken wings? They are slow smoked with hickory and cherrywood and can be tossed in any of our signature sauces or simply savored in their natural smoky state.

At Whats The Rub, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality and our refusal to take shortcuts. Our briskets are hand-trimmed and smoked fresh daily, and we also prioritize the smallest details, including our custom-blended rubs, which are freshly prepared in-house and never sourced from mass-produced, store-bought seasoning blends. Stop on by and taste the diffrence for yourself.
