J.R.'s Family Bar-B-Q

Not much going on this weekend which is a nice change of pace and the calm before the storm so to speak. Next week is the kickoff of college football season and "business definitely will pick up" until bowl season.

Business at J.R.'S Family BBQ has been good and our in store sales of sauces and ketchup has grown tremendously. We still hope to meet with various grocery store reps in the next few weeks to be able to put our products on their shelves.

I also some day would like to place our products in the WWE Niagara Falls complex but that is still a work in progress but would give them the exclusive for Canada on J.R.'s Sauces and Beef Jerky. 

We do have some exciting things happening with our Beef Jerky distribution locally in Oklahoma and to be honest because we are such a small, home grown outfit, that's about all we can handle right now other than out growing website business.  

We will be launching some new specials here on the site in a few days after the success of our last promotion. We are still in the learning phase of running a website sales operation and with a staff of three, including yours truly who is on the road a portion of every week, we are learning more each week on how to best ship our products as all major shipping entities are seemingly changing their rules on a weekly basis. 

Nonetheless, your business is what keeps us alive here on this site and to those of you who shop and order with us we want to say thanks for the support.  Here's a few, BBQ'ed Random Thoughts....  more »

I hope that every one is having a great weekend. It's a beautiful day here in Norman, Oklahoma as I prepare to travel to Cleveland late Monday afternoon to be a part of the Tuesday night festivities in "The King's" 2nd favorite city. Without further ado..... more »

Our sale ends Friday night at midnight central time so don't be "burning any daylight" when it comes to making a decision to place your order. The 6 Pak Powerslam and the Beef Jerky package have been running rampant. We have learned a great deal on this sale and will implement some positive changes when we do our next major promotion. 

Lots of ground to cover so let's fire up the smoker and get busy....  more »

Thanks for dropping by and checking out our site. I will try and get caught up in the next few days over in the Q&A Section of the site. Our huge SALE here in the on line store ENDS FRIDAY. Shipping outside the USA is a nightmare but we will continue to look for viable alternatives but thus far we have not been successful. For those that live in the USA, these "deals" are terrific and I hope that you will take advantage of them before the promotion ends.  

It's good to be home here in Norman, Oklahoma. Football season is literally upon us and definitely in the air as I hope to watch a Sooner practice or two before I have to leave again next week. The Mrs and I will be front and center in Dallas for the season opener between OU and BYU which will be held in the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas on September 5. The next week it gets a little dicey as I have to fly on Sunday morning from OKC to Montreal for Breaking Point on September 13. That one might be a photo finish getting there but I have zero plans on missing the Oklahoma game the evening prior to the PPV. If I don't make it, perhaps Georges St. Pierre can sit in for me. (GSP is arguably the best MMA fighter in the world in my humble opinion.) Breaking Point, with all the submission bouts that will be featured, is an innovative and intriguing concept that has my interest. Broadcasting submission bouts takes on a different slant than a regular, catch as catch can, pro wrestling bout.   

Just so you will know, this afternoon I enjoyed a piping hot, baked potato at JR's Family BBQ loaded with smoked turkey and topped with chives and JR's Original BBQ Sauce with a side of home made green beans. Sorta makes me hungry....again....how about you? Let's roll with a few random thoughts.  more »

The big sale that we launched late Friday has kicked off well and I hope that you won't delay in placing your orders as these offers can't last long. I know that my wife and sister in law are busy shipping out orders today that they received over the weekend while I was on the road. We are a small, family operation and your business is and always will be appreciated and needed to keep our website up and running. Here's your opportuniity to help this site and our brand PLUS get some super deals on our great prouducts and get FREE SHIPPING and FREE bonus items while supplies last. 

I am presently in Phoenix where Tuesday nite we will tape Friday Night Smackdown and our Superstars bout. Here's  some thoughts on this past weekend in Los Angeles.     more »

Check out the site and our on line store for all the great deals that include some FREE stuff and FREE SHIPPING where possible especially in the USA and Canada. Shipping for most orders to the UK is only $15. We hope this sale lasts a week but it may be a photo finish on that one. Nonetheless, the deals are here NOW and we hope that you take advantage of them. When we are paying for shipping and handling plus throwing in some freebies, I think we have made some super packages for all. Thanks for your biz and now to some random thoughts. more »

We are working frantically to get all the info up on the site today (Friday) for our huge sale. We hope that we have a great weekend and we will ship all orders out next week via USPS. These will be limited time offers and when we are out of specific items then the applicable sales packages will obviously be discontinued. Here's a few Random Thoughts. more »

Here's some Random Thoughts from the Baron of BBQ!  more »

Just some quick observations of Monday Night Raw before I hit the sack as I will be flying, courtesy of Southwest Airlines, Tuesday morning to Kansas City for Smackdown and Superstars business. I might even sample some of KC's famous "Q." The last time I was in KC, my Sooners were winning their 3rd consecutive Big 12 Championship at Arrowhead Stadium but that's another story for another time. more »

It's almost too good to be true to be home on a Monday. I leave Tuesday morning for Kansas City, thanks Southwest Airlines,  where we will produce a WWE Superstars bout and the final, Friday Night Smackdown before this Sunday's Summerslam pay per view.

Remember that this Friday we will be rolling out some really amazing things here on the site that I know that you will enjoy. I'll be headed over to JR's BBQ today to see how many folks are enjoying our daily lunch special which is only $5.99 and is in full force every Monday - Friday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Here's some rare, Monday, "VINTAGE" random thoughts regarding some of the "pressing issues" of the day. more »
