Yesterday was an exciting day for us at Sonny Bryan’s Smokehouse, despite the icy weather! Both our Original and West End locations had a few celebrity visitors stop by to sample our world famous BBQ.
Emeril Lagasse spent most of the day at our Original Location filming for a brand new show that will air on the Cooking Network fittingly called “The Originals.” We were honored to be among three restaurants selected for the Dallas show and loved having the crew with us for the day. Our Baron of Beef, Dave Rummel, wasted no time putting Emeril to work and he took a few breaks to interview our President and CEO Brent Harman and Sonny Bryan’s son, Bill Bryan. On top of that, his good friend and Sonny Bryan’s fan, Dean Fearing, came in to say ‘hi’ and grab a few ribs and onion rings. We’re excited to see the show when it airs and will be sure to keep you all updated so you can tune in, too.
Later in the day we had some Jersey Shore royalty visit our West End location! Adrianna Costa from EXTRA was on hand to chat with the one and only Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino while they were treated to our melt-in-your-mouth Texas BBQ.
We’ll keep you updated on other celeb sightings this Super Bowl weekend. What can we say, they just can’t get enough of our southern hospitality and home cooked food!
