A few weeks ago, I was invited to attend the “Pitmaster Dinner Series” at Barn and Company Restaurant. The dinner series held the last Tuesday of every month features an all-inclusive meal for $40. This month’s theme was Summer Clam Bake, ya’ll know how I love seafood right?

As you can tell from the pics, it was a packed crowd and I know why! The food was absolutely delicious, you just can’t beat the $40 price tag, oh and did I forget to mention cocktails were included! Barn and Company is also known for their BBQ, the self-proclaimed smokehouse and BBQ shack has all you can eat Ribs every Thursday. I will definitely be back and I recommend that you stop by as well!
