Cheers, friends! And by the way, I genuinely mean that word, “friends!”
If you’ve talked with me, read something about our story, or followed along at any point in this journey, I hope you know that St. Augustine is special to me and my family. Despite only being here a few years, it’s home, and the people and community are the reason why. I also hope you know that opening our business was, and always will be, about finding ways to connect with and support our community and our customers.

I say it in every blog, and here feels like a great time to do it again: To every single customer we’ve had so far, THANK YOU! Your support means so much!
So, what are we up to around town? Here are some recent and upcoming community highlights that we’re really stoked about:
We’re helping run an incredible Veteran’s Day fundraiser event on November 10th, where we’ll donate a portion of our proceeds to charitable causes that will benefit local Veterans right here in our community! Check out more details here.
We jammed out at the Vilano Vibe-Rations Music Festival in October as a food vendor for well over 500 concert-goers.

We’re a member of the St. Augustine Beach Civic Association and proudly offer a discount to all local association members, 365 days a year.
We continue to have Saturday pop-ups with our friends at Dog Rose Brewing where we serve up “boil boats” at the brewery.
As Hurricane Idalia was preparing to turn towards St. Augustine in September, we donated a catered seafood boil to the fire department and marine rescue in St. Augustine Beach to show appreciation for our local first responders.

We’re excited to be a food vendor at the upcoming St. Johns County Chamber of Commerce’s Celebrate Event in November, at the famous Treasury Building in Historic St. Augustine.
Speaking of the St. Johns County Chamber of Commerce, we love our membership with them and all of the support we receive from and give to other local businesses.
We’ll be hitting up some local holiday markets around St. Augustine to help bring our Signature Seafood Boils (and perhaps even some fun stocking stuffers!) all around town.
As time passes we’ll continue to deepen our roots and find new ways to support the community, its local businesses, and residents. So if you have an idea for a fundraiser, an event, a market, or anything where we can help, please reach out to me directly at brian@outerbanksboilcompany.com. We love you, St. Augustine!
Cheers!
