Buck's is coming back

By Kevin Jefferies

Commerce – Buck's is coming back. Two Commerce natives are bringing back a Commerce favorite that closed its doors in 2002. Buck's BarBQ was a Commerce favorite for years, and Carl "Buck" Johnson, the grandson of the first "Buck" Johnson and original owner of Buck's BarBQ, and Len Stuart have been planning to re-open the establishment for over a year, recently finding a location along Live Oak Street becoming available.

The target open date for Buck's is July 1st.
