The Foodie Dad
Now I know the BBQ is a sacred domain for any dad, but this is the one day he’s aloud to take a break from the grill. Why not treat Dad for an authentic Southern-style BBQ experience that’s sure to get his stamp of approval. A Southern gentleman cherishes local food and traditions passed down through generations so show him some Southern hospitality this Father’s Day and grab a catered Uncle Smoke Cookhouse Signature Sandwich Platter for the whole family to enjoy. They offer an assortment of classic BBQ sandwiches including Angus beef, fried chicken, pulled pork, pulled chicken, and smoked bacon.
The Dad that Needs Relaxin’
We know he’s not going to admit it, but sometimes Dad just needs a little push to get that sore back treated. “Walking it off” sometimes won’t cut it and while many people see massage as an indulgence, the physical and mental health benefits are exceptional. Since June is also Men’s Health Month, it’s the perfect time for dad’s who are skeptical to try out the sports massage – a no-nonsense massage that aims to stretch tight muscles, stimulate inactive muscles and improve soft tissue conditions. If you’re feeling super giving, throw in the men’s facial, targeted to erase razor irritation, provide deep pore cleansing and toning. Let’s face it, this is something he would never treat himself to, but we promise he will thank you after. Massages and facials start at $69.95. Check out their site for to find the your nearest location.
The Chef Dad
While your dad might have a pretty good grip on grilling, a gourmet barbeque class is his chance to take his game to the next level. Covering everything from brining, rubs and mop sauces, your father will learn how to perfect his steak, chicken, pork and even vegetables to while getting extra tips and tricks from an award-winning chef and pit master. Relish your time together as you ketchup over some delicious barbecue cooking. The class is $149 and you book it here.
