AKRON, Ohio — Juan Mitchell was a mere two months away from opening a BBQ restaurant that would honor his grandfather, when a fire ripped through the building.Back in February 2021, Akron firefighters responded to 1239 Diagonal Road where they were quickly met with a fast-spreading fire, which would ultimately destroy a handful of businesses, including the soon-to-be “Reggie Ray’s Smokehouse BBQ.”
— Mike Vielhaber February 26, 2021 Reggie Ray’s Smokehouse BBQ had been a dream of Mitchell’s for years, and after firefighters cleared the area, demolition crews leveled what was left of that dream. A year and a half after the fire, Mitchell is preparing to open the BBQ joint five miles away from the original property, located at an old church at 1079 South Arlington Street in Akron.
Mitchell said he’s still dealing with issues with his insurance company from the original property, and was forced to re-raise the money needed.
