That’s why this is such a passion project of mine.
At stake is a $5,000 prize purse and two “golden tickets” to Dallas this fall for the nationals, in partnership with the World Food Championships. The Bay Area teams competing are Ironhead Barbeque ; Los Mexi”Q”tioners ; Phil the Grill ; Old Greenwood BBQ ; and Pops BBQ .Anderson grew up eating barbecue with his father on the south side of Chicago and opened his first restaurant in Wisconsin in 1994. A Native American of Choctaw and Ojibwe heritage, he’s a former assistant secretary for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and is also noted for his philanthropy and work with at-risk youth.
There are 117 Famous Dave’s restaurants nationwide, mostly operated by franchisees. In Northern California, besides San Jose, there are locations in Alameda at Alameda Landing and at Hayward’s Southland Mall. Takeout options are available in Fairfield and Modesto.
