Ranch House BBQ's lease expired at our temporary location in downtown Olympia tonight! But wait - this is exciting because it means we are getting closer to re-opening our original location on Hwy 8!!!
That's right...despite the recent fire that destroyed the new roof and plumbing at the Ranch, we will still open as planned. With many thanks to Jeff Bowers, owner of Bowers Construction, and his awesome crew, Ranch House BBQ will be ready to open toward the end of December!!
While Ranch House BBQ moves out of their temporary digs, crews are working double time to get the building ready for us to move in! The new roof, siding and windows are complete. Next comes electrical, insulation and sheetrock. Before we know it the new paint and floors will be going in!
Keep an eye on the website for updates and help spread the word....Ranch House BBQ is still smokin' hot!!

Ranch House BBQ & Steakhouse is Re-Building!
WATCH US RE-BUILD!!
10/31/08, Olympia: Ranch House BBQ & Steakhouse got the green light three weeks ago to rebuild their restaurant after months of waiting for funding and permits. The December 2007 mudslide that swept through the five acres that Ranch House BBQ sat so peacefully on for the past 60 years, was devastating not only to the owner Amy Anderson, but also our local community.
With no proceeds from their insurance company or FEMA, Anderson was forced to take out a low interest government loan. Just weeks before the first loan installment is due, Anderson received her building permit from the County. “The Thurston County building department has been very helpful during these past tough months,” Anderson said. “But, like everything else it takes time. There is so much that had to be in place before the actual re-building could occur.”
Operating at their temporary location in downtown Olympia has helped keep the Ranch House BBQ customers satisfied…so much so that Ranch House BBQ was awarded “Best BBQ of the South Sound” for the third year in a row! Due to the complete loss of equipment during the disaster, Ranch House BBQ was forced to take the year off from competing on a national bbq circuit where previous wins have included Grand Championship titles from Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Idaho, Canada and the World BBQ Championship in Ireland!
Ranch House BBQ hopes to re-open their original location at the end of December 2008. In true extreme makeover fashion, contractors are working side-by-side in an effort to speed up the process and make that dream come true.
