In the Smokehouse with Buddy Hancock
We're back at it with Buddy Hancock of Rocky Mount Smokehouse (or Buddy's BBQ as many would have it) and we had one hell of a conversation. It's been a while, as Buddy was one of our first 10 guests, but much as conspired since then. His restaurant has worked through a name change, more expansion, major events featuring celebrities, and more, but that's just part of it. We also dove into the importance of community, how sticking together can benefit us all, and a good time can be had right here in our corner of Appalachia.
