This is another inspiring example of following a dream and making it a reality. Bulldog’s sounds like the community place to gather for a variety of reasons. All the best to Justin and everyone at Bulldog’s and Joe- Stay safe, be cool, have fun, and keep up the good work!
I can totally relate to the struggles of finding a good wood supplier. Joe has been my dude for the past couple years now. He is always prompt on responding and his firewood is second to none in the Mahoning Valley. He has a customer for life in me. Good luck to you Bulldog bar and grill
Great to hear from you Jim!! I hope this hot summer didn't keep you away from your smoke! LOL. Everytime I drive down Niles Vienna Rd I think of you! LOL
If you only said he was cool, I wasn’t going to watch. You said super cool twice and I have to agree. Great courage and confidence in making such a leap!! Thanks Joe
There is a man who knows what he wants to be, doing what he wants to do. You enjoy him as a client & I can see that he values your part in his business. That's a win-win any way you look at it. Nice video Joe. Cheers.
2 Good men making it work. My parents did the same thing when they started a really small (2 car garage) working on Mazda's. 42 years later, we (including my sister and I) are worldwide, and even all of us have gotten to meet some Mazda Corp level guys. Keep going, never know who finds you, and never know what positive support is just around the corner.😉👍
“He’s talking about me.” Great line, Joe. We don’t want to confuse who’s the star of the show .What an inspirational business story. Oh, they’re your words, Joe.
Doing well, Joe. That bar atmosphere is big time. I also got a sense of how big HS Ohio football. A tv show from the bar. I coached high school in the Phila area for 2 decades and it doesn’t match the level of Ohio. Here in center city we have the Phillies and Eagles which my wife and I enjoy very much. Take care, Joe, and I hope your channel explodes. I think you’re on to something really interesting with those local color episodes. An excellent idea to promote the businesses you serve. Each has its own story and you seem to find it and tell it with interest.
Nice to see a couple go after the dream they want. Restaurant and bar look very nice, set up well. The locals tell you where the good spots are. The cherry looks clean and dry I’m sure great flavour from it. Small business supporting each other.
Joe just wanted to Thankyou for your videos. A few years ago I needed a financial bump to help pay college tuition for my child. Your video help me understand the process and business. The truck floor tarp worked like a boss.
I love these interviews and success stories. Even though Justin is still just getting started he has the right attitude with "I have no plan B" ! Thanks Joe for sharing and have a great day👍
Awesome job Joe. We definitely have to take care of our Bar B Que guys. And I'm glad you pointed out the 2 different types. Dry for smoke cooking and Not so dry for the gas guys. I can't stress that enough to people. Once again Awesome job by OWB. See ya at the show in October 👍 .
I’m watching this video; and am shocked to see that Justin looks like he could be my identical twin. If we didn’t live at opposite sides of the state I’d have some very real questions.
Nice to meet Justin, enthusiastic owner of Bulldog’s Bar & Grill. Hi Joe, Elaine from Canada here, I’d be one of those customers who smells the smoked meat and turns around on the highway, following my nose! May your supply of cherry wood be plentiful and consistent! Cheers. 👍
An Awesome Video Joe. Great people you do business with. It's much Cooler and much less Humid out so I am Cutting some Wood today. Stay Safe out there and can't wait to see your next Video. Ron From the Woodyard in Duanesburg NY.
# 97 Joey & Nick, 2 of the best defensive ends the Buckeyes had. Just wish Joey would of stayed for his senior year so his brother could of played with him. Want a pair!!!! Joe stay cool & keep on keeping on
Hi Joe - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. Interesting place, I would also have enjoyed seeing part of the journey there. If moisture is an issue in the smoking process I'm surprised Justin doesn't have his world class firewood protected from rain. I was hoping you'd mention the back story to the Lloyd jersey - that was my mothers maiden name.
In our part of the world there are two diametrically opposed entities. On the Ohio side of the line are The Cleveland Browns. On the Pennsylvania (PA) side of the line are the pittsburgh steelers. Browns and steelers are like cats and dogs, water and oil, Henry V and Charles d'Albret etc... Greg Lloyd played for the steelers which was his jersey hanging on the wall. It wouldn't have mattered who's jersey it would have been, the fact it was black and gold makes my stomach somewhat queasy. I am sure Justin retained some of his loyalties immigrating to Ohio from western PA where the steelers are adored. I am willing to overlook that as Justin seems to be one of the steelers' fans that have converted well!!!!
Big Rodders again. What I read from your explanation is that you are a sworn enemy of a possible relative of mine. Where does that leave poor old me? 😂😢
Great business story! ----- Bulldogs is halfway between OWB's & The Firewood Hut; you get much further south & I might as well become OWB (south division or PAWB division) ..... did I just open a can of worms :)
I'm curious on how much wood a place like that goes through in a month. We're building stock to hopefully approach a couple small local restaurants next year

Hi Joe. Great video featuring a customer and local establishment. Would you share with us how much of the firewood that you sell is produced in-house and how much do you purchase from your local suppliers? Looking forward to your response. Keep up the great work!
That would require accounting functions Jason! lol. What I can say is that I prob buy 30% of my firewood. I expect that # to go down each year but I still can't seem to get the logs in that I want

No plan “B” is a motto for any small business to live by. You have to be a different breed to be self employed. Excellent interview and great video.

The smell of wood-grilled meat alone is enough to make my mouth water enough to create a small swimming pool.
Thanks Joe for bringing me another great place to give it a try. That brisket sure looked tasty.
Thanks Keith. I was going to try fitting one in my pocket for the ride home!
That would have been a nice snack for the ride home along with a Dr. Pepper
Joe, I hope I get a chance to visit Justin's place next year when I come out to visit you for the International wood show!!

I'm curious on how much wood a place like that goes through in a month. We're building stock to hopefully approach a couple small local restaurants next year
