The pop-up stand, best known for barbecue nachos, was an Alabama football gameday staple for more than two decades.
Sep. 06, 2023, 6:44 a.m.Not the news Alabama fans will want to hear, but their favorite pop-up spot for delicious barbecue nachos and sandwiches will not return. Big Bad Wolves, which set up in the patio of The Houndstooth on the Strip in Tuscaloosa for Alabama home game weekends, has shut down permanently.
“In the end we hope we were a bright spot on the Strip, brought joy to some people and blessed some people through the years. It has been quite sad for us. We miss everyone terribly.” Sadly, we learned then that the pandemic and the price of meat sidelined the pop-up restaurant for a second straight season, according to co-owner McKinley, who said in 2021 they would attempt a comeback after taking two seasons off.
Without a brick-and-mortar location, the pop-up stand would only open for seven home-game weekends throughout the year. McKinley said the proceeds were often used to fund church activities including mission trips.
“When you’re only open seven times a year, it’s just a happy place to be. It’s not like being at work, not like drudgery. It’s seven weekends. It’s happy. I think we’ve built that atmosphere, and we try to be as nice and kind to everyone and make not only Alabama fans but everybody that comes to our tent from other schools and places in the country, we welcome them in and make them feel like they’re at home. We just want to be that really nice, welcoming spot to students, to alumni, to families.
