I
would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and
the history of the T-60 Grill and Coach's Low Country Boil® seasoning.
I am a retired football coach who, after my coaching career,
relocated with my family to
Fairplay
,
SC
on the shore of the beautiful
Lake
Hartwell
.
After
recognizing the need for an eating establishment, I opened the
T-60 Grill on Mother’s Day in 2003 with the support of my lovely
wife, Tina.
The name T-60 is derived from the channel marker on the lake that
denotes our location.
Originally,
our menu was very simple and included items such as steaks and
sandwiches. However, four months after the restaurant
opened, and with Tina’s encouragement, we introduced the Low
Country Boil – consisting of sausage, corn, potatoes, shrimp
and crab – which are all boiled in a pot containing the special
seasoning we developed.
The
response that Tina and I received to our Low Country Boil has
been beyond our imagination. The Low Country Boil has
proven to be so popular that we have had to expand the restaurant
five times. Now, anywhere from 600-800 customers come
to the T-60 Grill on summer weekends to dine with us.
After
receiving both requests and encouragement from customers and
other in the food service industry, I secured the services of
a company to custom blend the seasonings in Coach’s Low Country
Boil® seasoning to my specifications and to package
it for both restaurant/foodservice wholesale and retail sales.
Again, the response to the product has been beyond our imagination. Now,
both professional chefs and people at home can have the same unique
and flavorful culinary experience associated with using Coach’s
Low Country Boil® seasoning.
It is ideal for grilling, blackening, sauteing, baking, broiling
and boiling. It is also an ideal addition to various soups and
stews for a special complementary flavor note. Its use is
only limited by your imagination.
I
am very grateful and thankful to both God and my loyal customers
for making Tina’s and my dream a reality. I am especially
thankful to Tina for assisting me in making the T-60 Grill and
Coach’s Low Country Boil® seasoning the success that
both have been so far.
