We've been called a barbecue empire. We'll take it 🙌

Boston.com just covered our 10th anniversary and the story of how our Pitmaster and Co-Founder Andy Husbands turned one Cambridge BBQ joint into six locations serving 500,000 guests a year. Spoiler: it involved a lot of smoke, a competitive BBQ obsession, and more than a few sleepless nights.

Andy Husbands spent the last decade turning The Smoke Shop from a Kendall Square startup into a six-location business.
