Happy Tuesday Backyard Smoke'n family! I just want to say thank you for all the kind words and prayers you've all sent us ❤️Les is doing a bit better every day so he's been able get on FB a bit and read them. We felt all of it and it definitely helped get us through these last two weeks.

Also wanted to say things are too crazy for me to update and share, but if you are interested in updates I've made them public on both of our personal pages

Les Walker or Angie Soteco Walker

Thanks again for all the love ❤️‍🩹

HELLO 👋👋👋

So sorry we've been MIA lately! We've had a major life change again but this time it's good news!!! We closed on a house last Monday!

Little backstory, we sold our house of 22 years two years ago and we've been looking ever since. We finally found the right one!

BUT Les is reconfiguring and remodeling the inside 🏡🔨 and we need it livable by October 1st! Unfortunately, that is taking precedence in our lives right now especially on the weekends.

So once again THANK YOU so much for your patience! We hope to get those delicious smoked meats back out to you sooner rather than later!
🍗🔥💨❤️

Brisket for the win tonight, sold out in an hour and 10 minutes!!!

I have to say LOUDER for you all to understand how appreciative we are! As I've said before, it's scary for a food truck to be in a stand alone spot. Without a brewery, business or event. You show up and we are SO grateful ❤️

Today we sold out of brisket, mac, slaw and pulled pork (and we prepare heavy! Selling out is great, but feeding more people is better 😊)

Between lunch and dinner we went through 2 1/2 large pans of cheesy potatoes! That's well over 100 servings 🤪

We are so grateful that we were able purchase the lot in this great location. But words can't describe what it means that you guys come out just for us 🫶 THANK YOU

Until next time Backyard Smoke'n friends ❤️🍗💨🔥

Brisket is sold out!!

Prep day 🤪 So you know I have to post something random!

Tomorrow for lunch we're smoking up the one and only Conecuh Sausage 🤤🤤🤤 made in Evergreen, Alabama. For those I don't know Les was born and raised in Alabama, that's where he inherited his craft of southern style cooking.

If you've vacation down south you've probably had it a time or two BUT if you visited us at the Milan Harvest Festival, you may remember 🤩 My favorite way is to dip it in syrup 😋
