Two years in planning, building and designing, the Cary Red Hot & Blue restaurant is located in the Waverly Shopping Center at the corner of Tryon and Kildaire Farm Roads and is slated to open in April 2015. Red Hot & Blue is a full-service, casual-themed barbecue restaurant and full service caterer.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina (PRWEB) March 31, 2015 - Red Hot & Blue Restaurants, Inc. President, Randy McCann, confirmed that the national barbecue restaurant chain is opening a new location this month in Cary, North Carolina.

Two years in planning, building and designing, the Cary Red Hot & Blue restaurant is located in the Waverly Shopping Center at the corner of Tryon and Kildaire Farm Roads and is slated to open in April 2015. Red Hot & Blue is a full-service, casual-themed barbecue restaurant and full service caterer. Red Hot & Blue smokes barbecue on premise fresh daily, the old-fashioned way–low and slow–over hickory logs so the enticing aroma envelopes your senses as you enter the restaurant. The menu features delicious hickory-smoked meats including: award-winning ribs, authentic Memphis-style barbecue, hickory-smoked chicken wings, smoked sausage, fresh beef burgers, Southern-fried seafood, salads and Southern homemade sides and desserts. The atmosphere is steeped in legendary and contemporary blues music and delivers a large dose of Southern hospitality in a fun and entertaining dining environment.

The location in Cary will mark the third Red Hot & Blue restaurant to open in North Carolina. There currently are two other Red Hot & Blue locations in the North State – in Raleigh at 6615 Falls of Neuse Road and Winston-Salem at 613 Deacon Boulevard. In addition, there are 10 restaurants in the Washington DC area, 6 restaurants in Texas and one in Missouri and New Jersey. Red Hot & Blue is currently seeking new franchise/owners to open locations throughout the United States. Franchise information is available at: http://www.redhotandblue.com/central/franchise.

Todd Chriscoe is the Operating Partner at the soon-to-be-opened Red Hot & Blue restaurant and is a North Carolina native who grew up with barbecue in his blood. Chriscoe’s father and family friends held regular pig-picking events. So even as a young man it has been second nature to Chriscoe to stoke a hickory fire, to cook the pork–low and slow–to seal in the delicious smoked flavor of authentic barbecue.

The process to bring fresh smoked BBQ to the residents in Cary was a labor of love. Chriscoe, Bill Holt and Stephen Bell discussed opening a second Red Hot & Blue franchise in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area for several years. Currently, Holt and Bell own/operate the Red Hot & Blue restaurant at 6615 Falls of Neuse Road in Raleigh, NC. When a property became available at the new Waverly Place Shopping Center in Cary, NC–the discussions immediately materialized into construction plans.

Robert Friedman, Publisher of Attorney At Law Magazine in the Raleigh-Durham Research Triangle community was excited when he heard that Red Hot & Blue was opening a new restaurant close to his home. Friedman said, "The North Raleigh Red Hot & Blue serves incredible BBQ. Now they're bringing people of Cary a treat (again)! Waverly Place in Cary–the once–and future home of Red Hot & Blue for great Memphis BBQ in NC."

“Since the day construction began, numerous dedicated Red Hot & Blue fans have stopped by the new location asking when the BBQ will start smoking on the pits and we are pleased to announce that everything is in place to serve the Cary community in April,” said Red Hot & Blue President, Randy McCann.
