We are blessed with the support of our customers and community that allows us to donate to important local causes.

Two Saturdays ago Union Baptist Church in Blackfork was recognized by The National Park Service as a dedicated site of The Underground Railroad Network to Freedom.

Union Baptist Church is the oldest Black church in Ohio.

Rowdys Smokehouse considers it an honor to be included in this event and dedication and we are proud as Southern Ohioans to have been an important part of The Underground Railroad.
