This building, once known as the Byrom and Wright Garage, was a Ford Model-T dealership when it was built circa 1920. It served as a car dealership through to the 1940s, then as an automobile garage, and at one time as an auction barn.

Previously, Riley’s Bar-B-Q operated here and the Rockin’ R Steakhouse opened in June 2005. The structure has been altered over the years; a glassed-in dining area was added for the barbecue restaurant.

Old 300 BBQ serves up Texas barbecue and the steakhouse has been transformed into the Back Forty Event Hall, complete with dance floor.
