DAYNE'S CRAFT BBQ
100 S Front Street, Aledo, TX 76008
Dayne Weaver started his journey in Texas barbecue as a backyard smoker enthusiast. His father-in-law left a small kettle grill in his backyard in 2017, which he converted into a mini-smoker. He threw a brisket on and was immediately hooked. He began smoking meat every weekend; however, barbecuing is an expensive hobby. Dayne’s wife, Ashley, told him that if he was going to continue to cook regularly, he needed to find someone to buy it. That’s how “Dayne’s Underground Barbecue” was born.
Dayne posted on social media that he would be selling meats and sides from his front yard, and the response was overwhelming - he sold out in less than an hour. The couple decided to hold an underground barbecue sale on the last Sunday of every month. The crowd continued to grow and bring people from all over the state of Texas who wanted great barbecue - including a reporter and photographer from the Dallas Observer. Once an article was released singing their praises, Ashley knew that they had to register their business. Encouraged by his wife, he named the brand Dayne’s Craft Barbecue. The duo held pop-ups all over D/FW, which led them to become a staple at Lola's Trailer Park & Saloon (a former music venue in the heart of Fort Worth) for two years as they continued establishing their brand.
Now in 2024, they have officially opened their first and only brick-and-mortar restaurant in Aledo, TX.
