I wonder if Burke's BBQ was built before Fruitland Park annexed that part of Lake County. If so, that might have something to do with Burke's attitude about the city's demands to bring the property up to code. If so, can't say I blame him. Also, although I enjoyed the food, the restaurant was mostly empty most of the time, so if he wasn't making any money he wouldn't be enthusiastic about spending more.
