She said they are also looking forward to bringing more job opportunities to Fort Scott. They currently have 60 part-time and full time employees.
The service they will be providing to their community is “A sit-down restaurant experience with high quality smoked meats,” she said.

There was much gratitude expressed in the comments for the opening of this restaurant.
Carissa welcomed and thanked all the family and friends for the support they give.
Fort Scott Chamber of Commerce Chairperson Bailey Lyons told the attendees “Thanks for bringing barbecue back to Fort Scott.”
“May this place bring you much return on your investment,” Fort Scott Mayor Matthew Wells said.
I understand if Brickstreets intends to only service “eat in” customers, but I wish they would make it clear regarding carryout orders. I have tried 3 days to call and order carry out since my family likes bar be Que but can’t regularly schedule times to go in together.
