So Heffys BBQ Co. turned 4 years old this weekend. We have had a blast the last 4 years building a little BBQ sauce business into a little bit bigger BBQ sauce business, thanks to loyal fans.
Fans like Erik W. (aka E-Dub)
Erik has been with us since the beginning, he is a Heffys Fan, he gives us his opinion whether we want it or not. We love him for it.
A few weeks ago he shot us a note about our outrageous shipping prices, he was like “I don’t have Heffys in my house because of how much it costs to ship it to me”.
We have learned a lot the last 4 years….one thing for sure is to listen close our fans.
We also know if would be more convenient for Erik and his fantastic wife Stacey to buy us at their local store which is why we invented the I LOVE HEFFYS program. But still we wondered if we could do better with our shipping prices. So we went to work, took a look at our current shipping policies & providers, and tightened down some screws where we could and after much sweat and plenty of empty beer cans we came up with the “E-Dub” shipping method.
So in honor of Erik and our 4th birthday, we are officially launching the “E-Dub” (our nickname for Erik W.) shipping policy. It’s super simple….$4.95 flat rate shipping on up to 12 items.
Buy 2 bottles = $4.95 Shipping
Buy 12 bottles = $4.95 Shipping
Any combination of 12 items is one flat rate to ship!
Pretty sweet huh?! We think so, but don’t thank us, thank Erik!
Wanna be as cool as him, drop us a line and talk to us.

Do you ever wonder why sometimes that drink you order doesn’t taste the same every time, or the cake you make comes out just a little different? You know why, because chances are the same person didn’t make it or they used a little more of this or that in the process. Maybe they have never even tasted the drink they are making for you!
At Heffys we do our level best to make sure that every batch of Heffys BBQ Co Sauce is perfect. So our CEO TASTES EVERY BATCH we make. That’s a lot of sauce but hey, we love it that much. Do you think KC Masterpiece’s CEO does that? Hmmm…we doubt it very much.
Ever heard the term, measure twice, cut once. Well we take that pretty seriously at Heffys. It’s called batching, we measure out every ingredient before we even think about firing up the kettles to cook up delicious BBQ sauce.
Check out the process a bit closer, if you lean in you can almost smell it
Yoder Meats will be opening up their 3rd location! Yes, right next door to The Seafood Shop. You probably know about their great old fashioned smoked meats, locally raised beef, pork and chicken which are all-natural and has no growth hormones added! We know them and their product speaks for itself. Their new location is scheduled to open April 28th.
Yeah, we hand label Heffys BBQ products for a purpose. Why? Because we love to ensure that each bottle is given the right amount of Love.
What’s more is we are passionate about helping people, and Res Care KC does exactly that. Rescare employs those with developmental disabilities, and they take great pride in each bottle of Heffys that they personally label.

Seth Godin is a Marketing Guy…an author, a speaker, a thinker.He is always trying to pursue one-on-one relationships and encourages others to do that as well, no matter what business you are in.
We try to do this at Heffys, what really makes business move is personal connections, some could argue that its the ONLY thing that makes business move forward long-term.
As Seth puts it:
“Now, more than ever, we need to shake things up.
Now, more than ever, we need a different way of thinking, a useful way to focus and the energy to turn the game around. I hope a new ebook I’ve organized will get you started on that path. It took months, but I think you’ll find it worth the effort. (Download here).
Here are more than seventy big thinkers, each sharing an idea for you to think about as we head into the new year. From bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert to brilliant tech thinker Kevin Kelly, from publisher Tim O’Reilly to radio host Dave Ramsey, there are some important people riffing about important ideas here. The ebook includes Tom Peters, Jackie Huba and Jason Fried, along with Gina Trapani, Bill Taylor and Alan Webber”
