This prestigious award, presented by local media outlet Positively Osceola, is a testament to the tireless dedication of owner Jay Brown and his team. Their commitment to producing the most tender, flavorful, perfectly smoked meats paired with a sauce perfected through years of passion has made Granny’s Southern Smokehouse stand out in a competitive culinary landscape.
The story of Granny’s Southern Smokehouse is more than just a business venture for Jay Brown; it’s a personal journey rooted in tradition. Jay was born and raised in St. Cloud. His love of Southern barbecue was instilled at a young age, inspired by the unforgettable flavors of his grandmother “Granny’s” cooking. These treasured memories fueled his lifelong dream of opening Granny’s Southern Smokehouse, first in the St. Cloud Manor, then in the heart of downtown St. Cloud at 818 Pennsylvania Avenue, next to St. Cloud City Hall.
After receiving the Osceola’s Best Barbecue award, Jay thanked the loyal customers and community. “I wanted to say a huge thank you to all of our customers and our community for voting for us again. I’m truly grateful to you. And hopefully we’ll see you again soon,” Jay shared with sincere appreciation.
Granny’s Southern Smokehouse is not just a place to enjoy exceptional barbecue; it is also a center for community involvement. The restaurant will soon host its “2nd Annual Car Show,” an event that brings the community together in the town parking lot right next to Granny’s.
