Our Story

They say that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and in the Brooks family, that couldn’t be more true. For three generations we’ve been in the business of bringing people together with the best BBQ and the friendliest servers too. What started as a humble chicken farm in 1912 grew into a catering business in 1951, and finally, in 1961, the first ever Brooks’ House of BBQ opened its doors. A lot has changed since then, but some things never will, like our world-famous BBQ chicken slowly cooked over the largest indoor charcoal pit east of the Mississippi. Aside from the best meat for miles, you can expect a friendly “hello” when you walk in and an appreciative “thanks” when you’re all done. Trust us: When you visit our restaurant, the Brooks’ Roost banquet hall, or use our catering services, you’ll be leaving with a full stomach and a smile even bigger than our portions.
