The team behind Sammy’s in Adair Park is working on a new venture called Broad Street BBQ, slated to open in spring 2026. Located across from the planned El Tesoro, Broad Street will feature a full-service smokehouse with counter-service barbecue, a to-go window, and a craft cocktail bar.

We drive down a winding gravel road along high-fenced pasture, and a childlike sense of wonder creeps in.

Now, he’s letting them in on the Ban-Dou celebrations, too.

After six years in Old Fourth Ward, Erika Council’s Bomb Biscuit Co. is baking its way into Grant Park.

Recently, it has gained a cult following on TikTok, mainly from younger generations discovering it for the first time. Several Reddit threads offer enthusiastic skewerings of its intense flavor and lingering aftertaste; one poster called it the “worst soda in the world.”
