Famous Dave’s , founded by David Anderson, opened its first BBQ shack in Hayward, Wisconsin in 1994. The eatery served 5,000 people a week based in a town of 1,800.

Before rolling out with his savory BBQ product, Anderson perfected his craft over the course of two decades. He would visit the best barbecue places in the nation to learn from experienced pit masters.
