Founded by University of Oklahoma running back and 1978 Heisman Trophy winner Billy Sims and co-founder and CEO Jeff Jackson, the popular Billy Sims BBQ brand has experienced phenomenal growth in recent years as barbecue enthusiasts embrace its special proprietary recipes and processes for preparing and smoking beef, pork, and more. The restaurant chain first began operation in 2004 and diners now enjoy over 50 locations across six states.

Billy Sims BBQ’s extensive menu includes nine meats including favorites such as ribs, beef brisket, pulled pork, chicken, turkey and even Bologna!

Jeff, who has spent the past 27 years working in the oil and gas industry and Kayla who is a licensed hair stylist plan to retire in Colorado Springs and begin their “encore” careers with Billy Sims BBQ.
