Grillin’ BBQ in Clawson

After running a successful food truck business for two years, co-owners Caitlin Avis and Collier Willis have decided to open a brick and mortar location in Clawson, called The House of Barbecue. Avis says their food truck business really took off with their revive bowl, which she describes as a multi-layer BBQ bowl, customizable to any dietary need such as vegan, vegetarian, halal, keto and gluten free. Avis also attributes their success to the talented Chef Collier Willis. “We competed in about 10 food festival last year and each time, we were awarded first place,” she said. On the menu, guests will find signature barbecue entrees such as beef brisket, tomahawk steak and beef ribs. Popular sides include BBQ smoked mac and cheese and BBQ street corn.  The interior of the space is decorated in a country club vibe with white linen table cloths, but Avis stresses that they want to be family friendly as well. There are no alcoholic beverages served at this time, but Avis says they are working on getting their liquor license.  220 South Main Street, Clawson  thehouseofbarbecue.com
