Because I love showing off my passion for barbeque and I couldn't really find anything that I liked, I decided to start my own line of apparel geared toward the barbeque crowd. Son of a Butcher Barbeque is my chosen name for anything that I will do for the public, as it reflects my fathers profession and our joint love of good barbeque. My father passed away in 2015, so this is me paying homage to him through my love of barbeque. This is just the first step! Currently I have a storefront on Teespring, which allows me to design and customize all kinds of apparel and other items with my own barbeque spin.
Available in many styles and colors, men's and women's, and even a childrens shirt! Let me know what you think.

Your dad would be really proud. Those are quality designs and I love em.' Going on my Christmas list. I've got a client who has a very successful t shirt side gig and he is killing it listing his shirts on ebay. Just a thought.
Thank you hoovarmin! I will definitely check that out. I am always thinking of new designs, but I won't put anything out that I wouldn't wear myself. New outlets might help me get this in front of more eyes. I have an Instagram and Facebook page, and I've boosted some adds on that. We'll see what happens. I have no big expectations, as I was just trying to make some for myself, but I do see room in the marketplace for these. It's just a niche market, but it's a niche I care about.
JonnyB, Your Shirts Look Great, IMHOPâ—ï¸ You Might Want to Run Your Designs by Huskee and @Meatheadâ€¼ï¸ Endorsement by Amazing Ribs and the "Pit Club" Would Help Your Business Immensely ‼ï¸

I like the "if you smoke it they will come". It would be grate if you have different ones with different cookers on it. You know, to catch all of us and our toys. Like a barrel or a kettle.......
HawkerXP Funny you say that, I am doing exactly that! There will be multiple versions of some of the same design so that those with Webers, gassers, offsets, etc will have the option of matching the shirt to their smoker.
Danjohnston949 I will definitely hit up Huskee. I'm not in this to make a living, but I know that guys want to wear stuff like this the same way I do. I'm not sure how endorsing my little experiment will benefit Amazing Ribs, but I'm open to anything that would prove beneficial to us both. I just don't want to step on anyone's toes.
Thanks for all the ideas and positive reviews. I really appreciate the feedback. Check back for the new and updated designs for different smokers!

Started Low-N-Slow BBQ in 2012. Obviously, it's taken hold (in chronological order:
1.) A pair of Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5's
2.) #LilTex, a 22" Expensive Offset Smoker (looks like a Yoder Witicha)
3.) #WhoDat1, a HUGE Gravity Fed Insulated Cabinet Smoker (cooking chamber 3'x2'x6')
4.) A Full Size Commercial Dryer/converted to Vertical Smoker.
5.) Jambo Backyard stickburner (my FAVORITE Pit so far)
6.) GrillMeister, a huge 24"x48" Adjustable, Charcoal Grill from Pitmaker.com
7.) 22" Weber Kettle with Slow-N-Sear
8.) Vault insulated reverse-flow cabinet smoker from Pitmaker
9.) BarbecueFiretruck...under development
10.) 26 foot BBQ Vending Trailer equipped with HUGE Myron Mixon 72xc smoker is HERE, Oct 2016!
11.) Opened www.PaulsRibShackBarbecue.com Food Trailer officially in March 2017
12.) Austin Smoke Works 500 Gallon Propane Tank Offset Smoker, named "Lucille" as travel pit for PaulsRibShack, Oct 2018.
12.) Opening Brick & Mortar location at 4800 Nelson Rd, Spring 2019. Had a pair of 1,000 Gallon Austin Smoke Works pits, both in RibShackRed for our new place!
Fabulous Backlit Thermapens, several Maverick Remote Thermometers (don't use any remotes anymore), Thermoworks Smoke, Other Thermoworks toys, Vacuum sealer, lots and lots of equipment...
I'm loving using BBQ to make friends and build connections.
I have #theRibList where I keep a list of new and old friends and whenever I'm cooking, I make 1 to 20 extra and share the joy.
