Tomah, WI (RestaurantNews.com) BP Smokehouse, the award-winning fast-casual Midwest BBQ brand with deep roots in the competitive BBQ circuit, is proud to announce the launch of its nationwide franchise opportunity.
BP Smokehouse’s franchise model offers a streamlined business opportunity for individuals looking to step into the world of barbeque. Franchisees will receive comprehensive training, marketing support, and access to BP Smokehouse’s established brand elements. The company has partnered with Franchise Marketing Systems of Atlanta to ensure a simple franchise process, equipping new owners with the tools and guidance to drive their location towards growth.
Founded by retired Wisconsin State Trooper Darren Price, BP Smokehouse has built a reputation for excellence, seamlessly merging time-honored BBQ traditions with a passion for delivering high-quality smoked meats, authentic flavors, and a customer-first approach.
In 2000, BP Smokehouse got its start with a small smoker and a trailer. Since then, the brand has grown into a beloved community gem, offering full-scale catering and a dine-in restaurant in Tomah, Wisconsin. Price, alongside his wife Myra Jo (Blackdeer) Price — an Army veteran and member of the Ho-Chunk Nation — has meticulously perfected proprietary rubs, sauces, and smoking techniques that have set BP Smokehouse apart. Sauces and rubs, including the 3rd place winner of the 33rd Annual American Royal World Series of Barbecue® Sauce Contest, are available for purchase both on the store’s website and in store.
With numerous accolades, including a State Championship win in 2003 and national competition appearances such as the Jack Daniels World and American Royal Invitationals, BP Smokehouse shares a well-recognized and established fast casual brand with entrepreneurs across the States.
The menu at BP Smokehouse showcases a variety of smoked meats, from tender ribs and beef brisket to pulled pork, pulled chicken, and brats, all complemented by a selection of flavorful sides. Whether through catering or dine-in experiences, BP Smokehouse gives its franchisees multiple ways to draw in customers and earn revenue.
In addition to its franchise expansion, BP Smokehouse also offers cooking classes led by founder Darren Price. These hands-on classes provide participants with expert BBQ techniques, from smoking meats to perfecting signature rubs and sauces. The next cooking class is scheduled for March 29th at the company’s corporate location at 201 Larkin St, Tomah, Wisconsin. The class will offer BBQ enthusiasts a chance to learn directly from an award-winning pitmaster.
