It's 2021 and a new year. I'm looking back on where I've been to see where I can go from here.

In the Summer of 2009, during my time in the Air Force at Corry Station NAS in beautiful Pensacola, Florida - I started grilling out to pass the weekends (before I knew just how much of a passion I had for food). Word got around that 'Smitty' (that's me) was "grilling out again" and it quickly turned into a cult gathering where friends, coworkers and various members from all of our sister branches would come and sample the food and engage in the banter that we had all come so familiar with as we dealt with adjusting to military life.

I would spend most of my earnings on food/fuel to dish out the goods every weekend. It was quite a magical time.

I've tossed around the idea of Smitty's Grill as a new restaurant concept that has turned into a wishes and dreams page than anything productive or fruitful. I believe it's time to return to my roots and share in the simple joy of sharing good food with good friends.

The wheels are turning and details will soon follow. Stay tuned my friends, Smitty's Grill is BACK!

On one hand, I’m happy to see the city making improvements. On the other, I’m disappointed 😢 to see a dream of mine will have to be relocated now.

Smitty’s Grill (or some iteration) will be a reality one day, just now it will have to be in a different spot.

First come, first serve, I guess.

Work has started at Pocket Park!! Did you know that money raised at Five Star City Fest go into projects like these? We can’t wait to see the finished project!

Food trucks come in many shapes and sizes much like the food that is served in them.

The Smitty's Grill Food Truck is very much a real concept/real dream. It can/could be a reality in as little as a year. We're shooting for five years.

That doesn't mean that it can't/won't happen sooner, if you'd like to board this gravy train, consider donating below.

We are about building up our respective communities too: 10% of all Donated funds will benefit the communities in more ways than one through donations to various benevolent organizations within Senatobia.

Salut, My name is Jordan Smith. I am a chef. I have a dream of one day having my own restaurant. I'm raising money to make that dream a reality. I grew up in a small Southern town in North Mississippi called Senatobia - about 30 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee. From as far back as I can recal...
