As all y’all know by now John Mueller’s big barbecue pit was stolen off the lot behind Kellee’s Place in East Austin, Texas last week.

These pits don’t come cheap, and while Mueller’s business is successful, the profit margins on smoked meat are razor thin.

A man named Mike Murphy has started a GoFundMe to help the old barbecue cook procure a replacement pit. This GOFUNDME has since been taken down.

The stolen pit’s probably in a smelter down in Mexico while Austin Police are busy writing jaywalk tickets and pepper spraying college girls on 6th Street.
