Another Mexican restaurant has hit the food scene in Trussville. It’s La Cazuela Mexican Cuisine, located where Ken’s Barbecue used to reside.

Owned by Eddie and Araceli Garcia, this is their third venture in the restaurant biz. Others include Shelly’s Bakery in Pinson and La Cazeula in Springville.

So far, the Trussville community has welcome La Cazuela with open arms.

Why was Trussville chosen for the next location for Rodney Scott’s BBQ?

“It’s a great area that is growing and shows lots of enthusiasm and community involvement. We appreciate the city government and have had a great working relationship with Trussville for a while now.”

Nick Pihakis, business partner, Rodney Scott’s BBQ

According to Pihakis, the menu will be the same as the Avondale location.

“We have worked hard on our menu and will have all of our classic smoked meats and vegetable sides at the new location as well as some newer items that we are proud of like fresh salads and our wine, beer and cocktails.”

Wondering what the most popular items are at Rodney Scott’s BBQ?

“Our pulled pork is definitely the most popular, but ribs, smoked chicken and turkey and our chicken wings are definite favorites.”
