They said a spark got in above the drop ceiling and spread before anyone realized what was happening and by that point it was too late and it is being said it was a total loss. I believe the fire department got called about 10:30 last night and finally got everything put out around 1:00 a.m..
One of my favorite places to eat BBQ.
Thankfully they still have the Jenks location
All is not lost. There is a BurnCo location in Jenks, just a few miles from the 18th & S. Boston that took the hit (temporary we hope) from the fire.
Worked for uncle Albert G’s quite a bit. Usually the smoker that catches fire overnight when nobody is home.
Do they smoke BBQ at the Jenks location? I always thought they made it all at the Sobo location and brought it over.
That's kind of what I thought. Overnight smoking seems like an accident waiting to happen but I guess that's the way it's done.
