Newest Addition to the Fleet


Rolling grills, Rolling Stones, vintage corvettes. Why does it seem like some of the best things are associated with wheels? Hey, I don't know but I'll tell you that anytime we expand our fleet of mobile barbecue pits my level of personal pride creeps up another notch. We got the newest addition in late last night and it is not the biggest rig we own but it looks to be one of the most powerful. A whole hog pit, a grill for the little cuts and a two burner stove all in one compact unit. I like the big 10,000 pound rigs we have too but I'll go back to my all things on wheels comment and say this little baby is more like a barbecue deuce coupe. I'm ready to crank 'er up!

Smoky and Sweet


Most often we're defined by all things smoky around Jim 'N Nick's but this week we're letting our sweet side shine. We're happy and proud to be one of a great group of Birmingham based restaurants donating proceeds from a certain sweet to the UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center to help with their work in finding a cure for cancer. Eat a slice of lemon pie at a Birmingham location of Jim 'N Nick's the week of November 9th and you'll be helping too.
