Tell us a little about
yourself…
I’ve been in the barbecue
business for nineteen years. When I moved to Tennessee, I joined the team at
Damon’s Grill in Pigeon Forge. I worked for that company for 16 years managing,
catering and building relationships in the community. After Damon’s, I came to
Dead End BBQ Knoxville to work in their catering department.
Now I am the Catering
Manager at Dead End Maryville, bringing our East Tennessee barbecue to Blount
County and spending as much time with my beautiful daughter Amiah as I can.
When you are at work, what is your “go-to”
meal?
Spicy BBQ Wings.
What is your favorite saying that has been

Share a memorable experience you’ve had during
your time at Dead End…
Last fall, I catered a
wedding in Friendsville at the family’s farm. It was going to be a casual get
together in the field with friends and family to celebrate the newlyweds. They
had asked for me to bring the smoker to give a little ambiance at the reception.
Little did I know they were providing their own kind of ambiance for the ceremony…
Right as the preacher said,” You may now kiss the bride!” two people from the
wedding party stood up, rifle in hand and fired shots in the air. Yee-hawww!
