Smoked low and slow over wood.

Boils Thursday and Friday.

Cowboy beans, cornbread.

Double-seared, stacked.
Bringing real smoke to your front door. Sliced brisket, smoked meats, sides and more, at your place or ours. Office lunches, weddings, game days, graduations. We fire it up, so you can sit back and enjoy.

Most sports bars are all the same. Oscar's isn't. Big screens, no bad seats, cold drinks, loud reactions, and food that doesn't come out of a freezer: wings, burgers, Detroit-style pizza, barbecue. Located under The Firepit.
Private rentals: full access to the venue, multiple TVs for games or presentations, room to mingle, and a staff that runs your event start to finish.
The Firepit isn't built on shortcuts, gimmicks, or propane-fueled excuses. Chef Darrell learned to grill young and carries forward the influence of Grandma Alice, a Mississippi grandmother who cooked with heart and heritage. Barbecue gives the smoke and skill; soul food gives the history and comfort.
Real barbecue should taste like it came from a pit, not a planogram. Real smoke, real seasoning, real effort, made by people who care about what hits the table. Independent, and proud of it.
Respect the smoke.
