Just Heard Around Town: Big John of Big John's BBQ opening Restaurant in Punta Gorda

At the history park yesterday  we spoke to Big John (of Big John's Barbeque, which until now as been pretty much a catering business), and he is announcing that he and son Lloyd will be opening a BBQ restaurant offering dine-in or take out at 502 King Street (where the Casino used to be at E. Charlotte) in Punta Gorda.  

 John serves up great barbeque and as he says himself his restaurant which will serve beer and wine with ribs, chicken, pulled pork, brisket, country fixins and more has been "a long time coming."  John expects to open sometime in September... and to have hours 10 a.m. to late Wednesday through Sunday.  Stay tuned for more.
