Such killer BBQ. Too bad the owner was this big of a turd. Denver lost a gem of a smoke spot.

Crazy idea: employees occupy the restaurant and keep running it, customers pay employees directly. Cut the owners out and take their stuff. It’s a strike tactic utilized outside of the US.

Sounds like A and J have bigger issues to worry about! Tax fraud generally equals prison time if they ever come back to the US.

Not sure why anyone would work for a legitimate business and receive payments via Venmo and other cash apps, that’s a huge red flag. The owners 100% seem like scum bags, but the employees should have realized something was up. Sounds like they haven’t had a pay stub in over a year, plenty of time to try and line up a new job before leaving.

The pastrami was the only thing good there anyway.

Is it really quitting if you were never employed there?

Owner fled to mexico several months prior.
Numerous holdings of his have been closed in the past year.
Lawsuits have been filed by both employees, landlords and other legal entities against his holdings.
Numerous employees have not gotten paid(from both AJs BBQ and other holdings).
I’m sorry for the people that got caught up in this, but if you were still working for AJs BBQ while all this was ongoing, then you either have had your head buried in the sand, or are mentally handicapped.

No worries, former employees should just call their federal government or state government for help. Oh wait this clown show in DC fired them, or is trying to.
