Restaurant Description

Scotts BBQ is a new family restaurant that opened April 8,2006 at 637-A Northland Blvd. in Forest Park, Ohio in the North Point Plaza. Even though this restaurant is a new endeavor for the Scott Family, BBQ, good homemade food and delicious sauce has been in the Scott family for many generations.

Our great grandfather, Pa Pa Braden ran a BBQ pit and sold BBQ for many years. He passed his legacy onto his daughter, our grandmother, Gladys Lewis,who operated a BBQ pit as well. The legacy was further passed onto our mother, Janet Scott, who made the delicious BBQ sauce as a well-prepared delicious food for her family. About seven years ago, this legacy was passed onto Robert Scott, known as "BigBob", who began making this delicious BBQ sauce for his co-workers. The sauce went over so well that he got together with his youngest brother, Larry Scott, to have the sauce manufactured.

We marketed our BBQ sauce in several stores such as Krogers', Lo Bills', Biggs' and IGA food stores. In order to promote the sauce, Bob, Larry and some other family members and friends began doing demonstrations by handing out samples inside some of the stores. A George Foreman Grill was used with little smokies and chicken breasts dipped in the sauce for consumers to taste.

Robert decided to take it to the next level and let the consumers taste the sauce on real barbeque straight off the BBQ grill. He started with two barrel BBQ grills serving on the sidewalk of Woodlawn Krogers stores during the weekends. We began moving to the different Krogers stores every weekend to better promote the sauce. This became so popular with our consumers that it was necessary to increase from two grills to four grills. We then moved to the parking lots of Krogers. A mobile food unit was purchased to enable us to offer homemade side items such as macaroni & cheese, green beans, baked beans,7-up cake and peach cobbler. In 2006, Larry Scott Sr. sought out to find a permanent location and

This was our first visit to Scott's BBQ and we loved it! The food was excellent - all homemade and the desserts were delicious. My favorite was the sweet potato cobbler. They were very friendly and several family members stopped at our table to talk with us. We will definitely being back for another great meal.

The Bar B Que is awesome. I like some of the side dishes, and desserts. The only problem I have is the wait time on the food. I can come in and place an order and it will take half an hour for Bar B Que that should already be cooked. I could see if it happened once but it has happened more than i like to share. I have experienced calling my order in a day ahead of time with the time i will be there to pick up the food for a gathering and i still have to wait. so this causes me not to go there as much as i normally would. so other than the wait time, the food is good.
