Alley BBQ will host its first annual Ballads & BBQ anniversary concert event at 7M Farms in Bell Buckle

On October 26, 2024, Alley BBQ will host its first annual Ballads & BBQ anniversary

concert event at 7M Farms in Bell Buckle, Tennessee. In October of 2023, then 19

year old Andrew McReynolds officially opened his Texas style barbecue storefront at 13 Webb Rd. E., in what had once been a 19th century alley way. Surrounded with support from his family of 7, Andrew, together with his father, Jeremy McReynolds, now continue the smoked meat traditions of their 8th & 9th generation Texas ancestors right here in middle Tennessee. They take great care to prepare authentic craft bbq using only salt, pepper, and locally sourced firewood to create melt in your mouth brisket, pork, chicken, sausage, ribs and even smoked pecan pie for every person who walks through their doors.

Ballads & BBQ invites you to an evening celebration under the stars featuring Alley

BBQ, Nash Family Creamery ice cream, and outstanding live music from the
