Stacy's Smokehouse to Open a Second Location in Scottsdale

Sounds as if Scottsdale residents will soon be getting a taste of their own drool-worthy 'cue from Stacy's Smokehouse, the tiny, no-frills purple building on Indian School Road and 16th Street.

Stacy's is also planning to bottle and sell their signature barbecue sauce, but that plan won't be put into action until after the Scottsdale location opens.

Here's hoping Stacy's brings their homemade German chocolate cake to the new Scottsdale location as well. I chased my rib tips down with a thick, sugary, coconut covered slice, and left a happy woman.
