The ribbon was sliced on Monday, November 3rd celebrating one of Historic Downtown Manassas’s newest foodie hot spots, The Bone.

More from a press release about the opening:

The Bone Barbecue opened on July 4th, 2014, at its location, 9420 Battle Street. The restaurant offers high quality barbecue with meats that are smoked in-house, and sauces and sides made from scratch.

The Bone is the second barbecue joint for owners Mike, Chase, and Bobby Hoover. Their first, Bad to the Bone Smokehouse, in Gainesville, Virginia, has received much local acclaim for its barbecue– including a win of a lengthy, bracket-style competition called the “BBQ Brawl,” where they were selected as the winner over 32 other restaurants. The Bone is the fast, casual version of Bad to the Bone, with the same quality cuisine.

Chase Hoover says they “let the meat do the talking,” when it comes to their recipes, by using quality and simplicity in the preparation. Meats are pulled and sliced with little to no sauce. Guests can add flair by choosing one of their five sauces, two of which feature beer from Manassas brewery, Heritage Brewing Company. Local, craft beer is also available for purchase to drink while you dine or to take with you. The interior has an industrial rustic feel featuring many touches put together by the owners themselves. Outdoor seating is also available.

The team at The Bone is pleased to join the Historic Downtown business community stating, “It was a no-brainer for us in terms of a second location.” They were impressed by the development of downtown and “saw a great opportunity to be a part of the growing area.” The restaurant is open Monday through Saturday, 11am-9pm, and on Sundays from 11am- 3pm.
