Our Story

 

If you haven’t met Skinny Kenny yet you’ll know who he is the minute you walk in the door. Our logo isn’t just a cute caricature, it is a spot on likeness of the Big Guy himself. From the moment he was born at 11 lbs, Skinny has been developing his pallet for great tastes. As a growing boy in the thumb of Michigan Skinny’s mom would always make sure that when there was going to be a pie for desert, Kenny had a pie of his own so he didn’t have to share with his 4 siblings. These steps have shaped him into the Golden pallet you know today.

Over the last 30+ years of his life, Skinny Kenny has been driven by a passion for building relationships with people, and much like his good friends Elwood & Jake Blues in 2019 he received the call to spread BBQ to the Kalamazoo Area.

”Food For the Body & The Soul” stays at the heart of everything we do. There’s always room at our table for one more, and even on the busiest days we want to make time to take care of you. We put our heart into the food we’re making and we know you’ll be able to taste & see the difference.
