It’s hard to believe that this week marks the second anniversary of opening Redemption BBQ & Market in Short Pump. We are very grateful for the support of longtime fans and new customers alike. It has been a joy and privilege to share our food with you.
Over the past two years we have worked hard at honing our craft in our little storefront on Lauderdale Drive, constantly striving to improve our Virginia-style barbecue and other menu items. We have also experimented with a variety of business hours, trying to strike the right balance between our product, our location, staffing needs, food costs, work/life balance, and a host of other variables.
After reviewing 2023, I came to the conclusion that focusing attention on our strongest business days is the most effective and sustainable way for us to offer the highest quality take-out and dine-in service at this time. So, beginning this week the restaurant and market will be open Thursday through Sunday from 11:30 AM to 7:00 PM. We will be closed for regular business on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. However, you can still schedule catering orders for any day of the week (there is a $500 minimum on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday).
Tomorrow I’ll announce some menu changes for the new year, but one change we’re happy to share in relation to the new schedule is that Chicago-style deep dish pizzas will now be available all weekend—Friday, Saturday, and Sunday!
