To Dan Rogers the pursuit of the perfect beer is a never-ending quest. The man was born to brew. Hard to believe he got started brewing on a kitchen stove. Once he started, he couldn't stop. Now that he's brewing in the most cutting-edge facility in the country you'd think he might slow down. "Quality everything. The best tasting beer—that's what I want." Dan founded the first brewery in Las Vegas in 1992. Since then every batch has been a lesson. Every keg, every bottle, a learning experience. Try any Griffin Claw beer and you'll taste twenty years of compounded technique. Everything is balanced. No ingredient is too heavy, no shortcuts are made. The man knows how to brew. No wonder when the best brewers in the world have problems they call him. He's a problem solver, scientist, chef, sage, and scholar. And he makes some damn delicious beer. We're proud he calls Griffin Claw home.

All BBQ has the same three basic ingredients: smoke, meat and time. What makes it different is the amount, consideration and attention to each part of that recipe. That, and some really great bbq sauce, too. At Jim ‘N Nick’s, we pride ourselves on using the right ingredients, taking our time and honoring the traditions that brought us barbecue.
