About Sonny’s BBQ
Sonny’s BBQ is among the largest barbecue chains in the country, having almost 100 outlets in the Southeastern regions. The chain is known for pulled pork, sweet tea and classic Southern starters. Sonny’s was named “Best Barbecue Chain in America” by The Daily Meal.
The chain began in 1968 when Floyd “Sonny” Tillman and his wife Lucille opened a small barbecue spot in Gainesville, Florida, built on slow-smoked meats and community hospitality. The same mission is today carried forward by CEO Jamie Yarmuth and his group of local pitmasters who focus on hospitality, guest experience, and traditional pitmaster practices.
Community involvement is also quite strong within the company, as the company has provided over $1.2 million every year through programs like Q the Kindness and Random Acts of BBQ. Those programs help Sonny’s support local causes, honor everyday community heroes and reach tens of thousands across the Southeast.
Sonny’s also emphasizes digital ordering and franchise support, which the company says help drive growth and long-term sustainability.
