John moved to Lubbock in 1961 and opened the first Pinkies Bar-B-Que in the county on E FM 835. He ran the Bar-B-Que until his retirement in 2008. If you ate any Bar-B-Que from Pinkies during that time period he cooked it, start to finish. John Wayne was also a fan of nicknames and if you had a nickname, you were someone special to him.
