It’s that time again. The Pro Football Hall of Fame Ribs Burnoff is this week, August 4-6. Come out and see your favorite Old Carolina team members in a different light: dancing and serving barbecue to the rhythm of Old School Funk!

And, if OC is your favorite barbecue, be sure to vote for People’s Choice. The judging is done by pollsters walking the fairgrounds. Seek them out and spread the word about Old Carolina. We are hoping to celebrate our seventh straight victory with everyone next week.

The Old Carolina crew will also be using the Burnoff to introduce Canton to a brand new restaurant concept. Bold Flavors. Fresh ingredients. And plenty of Baja attitude. All infused in a menu of Fish Tacos, Grilled Pizzas and Inspired Salads. Plans are to open the restaurant next spring. This week, you can find us next to the Old Carolina tent at the Stark County Fairgrounds. Come on out and give the concept a try. We want to know what you think.

We will be serving up award-winning barbecue all week at our three area restaurants. Greg B is holding down fort at our first restaurant location in Massillon at the Home Depot plaza while Greg M is leading the crew at our newest store in Fairlawn . Adam, Shelly and Jennifer are showing off the new outdoor seating in the Belden Village store. We hope to see all of you this week!
