Support Food + Beverage Workers Affected by the Texas Hill Country Floods

Our hearts are with everyone in the Texas Hill Country.

Southern Smoke provides financial relief during the recovery phase of disasters. We’ve committed $150,000 to support affected F+B workers and are prepared to do more. Sysco will match up to $15,000 in donations to amplify our impact.

The Hill Country Relief Fund application will open August 15. For urgent needs like medical or funeral expenses, F+B workers can apply now through our existing relief fund. Our Behind You program also offers no cost counseling to F+B workers.

Marjie’s Grill
WHERE WILL I BE COOKING:

After a decade & half of cooking in Ohio, California, Japan & New Orleans, Marcus Jacobs set out with his PIC, Caitlin Carney, to open Marjie’s Grill; a live fire centric restaurant near OPP serving BBQ, seafood & veggies from Louisiana & the Gulf South seasoned with bright Vietnamese, Thai & Laos flavors.

In May of 2021 the duo opened Seafood Sally’s: a casual modern Louisiana Seafood Restaurant in The Pigeon Town Neighborhood uptown. It’s been nothing but Love, Crabs & BBQ since then.
