TUPELO, Miss. (AP) He may be looking to sell his place, but Jim Beane wants to make it perfectly clear that he hasn’t retired, and his restaurant, Bar-B-Q by Jim, is still up and running.
“I’m still cooking, I’m still talking to everybody I can,” he said with a smile.
Although he’s put his restaurant up for sale, Beane said he’s simply planning for the future.
“I’m 69, my wife Barbara is 66, and we want to slow down a little bit and enjoy the grandkids,” he said. “This isn’t something I’m doing right away I’m just trying to get the word out there.”
