Hancock's is one of Selma's barbeque restaurants and is owned by Mike and Deborah Hancock (pictured left). It all started when Mike’s dad opened a grocery store and filling station in 1973, then converted it to a hamburger store in 1976. Mike and Deborah had started a barbeque restaurant in Gatlinburg, Tennessee that operated in 1978 and 1979. They were able to sell the restaurant in Gatlinburg, move back to Selma, and buy the restaurant from his dad in 1980. Their family has been in the restaurant business since 1965. Some of the items throughout the restaurant, such as the ones pictured below, have been in the restaurant since it opened.
They specialize in barbeque and ribs; however, they have other items on the menu such as the double bacon cheeseburger - a customer favorite. The food is made to order and everyone loves to eat their meal with Hancock's giant glass of sweet tea. Hancock's also makes their own barbeque sauce from an old family recipe. It can be purchased anytime at Hancock's or Black Belt Treasures. If you want to eat at a locally-owned restaurant with devoted employees, Hancock's is the place to go!
Hancock's decided to join the Chamber because they wanted to support the community. They are some of the best spokespeople for Selma and they recommend membership to anyone that is not a member. If you would like to become a member of the Chamber of Commerce, call 334-875-7241 for more information.
Be sure to eat your next meal at Hancock's!
