‘The Backyard Kitchen’ Opens in Manhattan

0
By KMAN Staff on April 24, 2013 Local News, Manhattan, Pottawatomie County, Riley County

As grilling season progresses, Manhattan is gaining a new store for outdoor cooking needs. The Backyard Kitchen opened last weekend on Fort Riley Boulevard next door to The Wiring Guy.

The business is owned by Aaron Nickell, who also owns The Wiring Guy, and he says its a business that has been on his mind for quite some time.

“Something I have many years experience with is on the cooking side, but we also have gone to several trade shows in the industry over the years,” Nickell says. “It’s not something I thought of yesterday, it is something that I feel we can do and do well.”

The Backyard Kitchen provides Premium Barbeque grills, smokers, and many associated accessories including over 100 quality sauces, rubs, and spices.

They are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 6pm and on Sundays from 1pm to 5pm. The Backyard Kitchen is on Facebook and on Twitter at @LetsGetGrillin.
