4Rivers Smokehouse, the Orlando area's newest "premium" barbeque joint to woo diners with lip-smacking ribs in an upscale setting, will open November 11th in Winter Park.

Partnering with Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida, the official ribbon cutting and grand opening commences at 10:00 AM. Sales to the public will begin at 10:30 AM until 8 PM with proceeds from the day benefiting the largest provider of homeless services in Central Florida and the largest residential facility for children. 4Rivers Smokehouse is located at 2103 West Fairbanks Avenue, 407-474-8377 (407-4RIVERS) featuring premium Texas-style barbecue in a rustic, authentic smokehouse setting.

Additional parking will be made available for the November 11th festivities with parking officials ready to direct traffic for this important grand opening. 4Rivers Smokehouse is giving 50% of the day's proceeds to Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida to help provide food, shelter and supportive services to their homeless clients.

Local owner and resident, John Rivers has spent 20 years perfecting his recipes. He takes pride in using the highest quality products for his mouth-watering menu featuring his award-winning 4Rivers Smokehouse Sauce with items such as Angus brisket, St. Louis style ribs and southern pulled pork. The Texas Destroyer and the Messy Pig are just a few of 4Rivers Smokehouse Signature Stacker sandwiches and the menu's featured side items include 4Rivers BBQ beans, baked cheese grits and smoked jalapeños. Dedicated to helping others, 4Rivers Smokehouse is committed to the financial support of schools, charity organizations and the local community.

Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida is the largest provider of homeless services in Central Florida and the largest residential facility for children. Of the 600 people served on any given night, nearly 200 are children with an average age of six. This non-profit organization provides food, shelter and comprehensive case-managed services, with the goal of helping the homeless become self-sufficient. Over 70% of the Coalition's resources come from the community's generosity.

4Rivers looks like a winner to me. I'll be there to check it out for you and report back.
