When you come in to eat at Five Star don't forget to check in on Facebook, Foursquare, or Yelp and get a FREE DRINK! Just show the cashier your check in!
Another way to get a free drink… pick up your very own 5 Star Tshirt. They’re just 15 bucks and every time you wear one in you get your thirst quenched free!
Check out JT and Mike showing their shirts off while grilling on site at a catering job. Somebody give those hard working men a drink!
Last weekend we catered a large corporate event… when we asked them how they chose us, here’s what they said.
“We bought BBQ from every place we could find in the valley and then set up a blind taste test for our employees to decide which food they liked the best. Your BBQ was by far the most popular- and so we chose you to cater our event.”
What a thrill it was to hear that. We’d like to thank you for your business and also for the giant compliment! You’re just one of the reasons that making delicious BBQ is what we love to do.
It’s always entertaining to observe men in line watching Mike or Josh cut the brisket fresh for their meal. We have actually seen them drool!
Last week, a lunch customer brought his friend in for the first time. They were watching Mike make their brisket sandwiches and the man said…
“Ohhhhhh- that’s sexy!”
Everyone laughed and then he asked…
“Could you cut it a little slower?”
Last Saturday we had an interesting challenger come in for the throwdown. Drew Manning is a personal trainer who is spending 5 months gaining weight on purpose. You can read about his journey AND his experience with the challenge HERE.
Drew’s family and friends showed up in force to watch him take on the challenge.
2 1/2 pounds of delicious brisket all ready to go!
And…. begin!
He has gained 55 pounds in 13 weeks (hope we got that right!) and the brisket is likely to add a few more pounds to that number!
Drew’s wife, Lynn, filming the video of the challenge.
It cracked us up when we cleared his table after the challenge and saw these bottles sitting there.
Drew did an amazing job at the challenge. He is our current record holder having consumed 3 lbs of Brisket, all of his sides and both pieces of bread!
Here’s the video he posted on youtube documenting the day. Thanks for coming down and taking a crack at the challenge Drew- We’ll be following your journey from fat to fit again!

This High Five was overheard in the restaurant on Monday. One of our regulars brought a friend in for lunch and was running him through the menu. He said “The only mistake you can make here is not coming here!”
