DB's Story
More than Great Food
I was always involved with my father when he would rotisserie chicken from somewhere
around the age of 10-12 years old. It always peaked my curiosity of how we controlled the fire
to achieve the correct doneness of the protein, in that case it was chicken.
​
After spending around 18 years in Texas, BBQ and Grilling about every weekend I returned to
PA with the fire inside. DB's Smokin' BBQ is comprised of award-winning meals with flavors and techniques developed over decades.

DB's Smokin' BBQ is premium because of the time and care I put into this craft. I pair great sides and create my own sauces. I also customize my smoker and keep it clean.
I never baste meat with other meat, in other words, Pork will never drip on my brisket chicken,
ribs or any other meat for that matter.
​
I have trained my staff on cooking my meat with care, I almost always drop in and quality
control the products and Proteins.
​
A lifelong commitment to quality
