Every business faces challenges, and Adrian’s Boutique is no exception.  Located in a small community with only 1,200 residents, we feel that we must be an EXCEPTIONAL place to visit…that it must be WORTH THE DRIVE for our clients to make a visit.  Each day, we talk about what that looks like within our staff, and are always trying new ways to serve our clients.

Many of you have been long time customers of Adrian’s, and I am forever grateful. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your lives. We want every single visit to be special for you!

Stay flexible! Stay true to your clients! Stay true to your Team, and remember to put your Faith and your Family FIRST! Click HERE to read Article.

Ideas to entertain your Summer Guests

9 07 2013

Summer is a time for family and friends to come and visit from far and wide…after the initial excitement of “My sisters (or friends) are coming!” wears off, you’ll need to start thinking of ways to entertain them!

Road Trip! When we travel, we like to stop at the UNIQUE places that give a community it’s character.  We pretty much have a “no chain restaurant, no mega-store” policy unless absolutely necessary in our family, so we find fun places to visit wherever we travel.

Road Trip Feet

This week, I will be featuring some great places to take your Summer guests when they visit… or you can just pretend you have guests and take a “Day-Trip” without ever leaving our community!  Here are some top places I would take guests and family to when visiting Reno County…

Roy’s Hickory Pit BBQ out on West 5th Street in Hutchinson.  We are so blessed to have some OUTSTANDING businesses in our community, and Anne Armstrong and her family own one of them.  They have built a “SMOKIN’ BBQ Business way out on West 5th Street in Hutchinson, Kansas over the past 30 years!  In our family, we always say “You can’t SNEAK to Roy’s!  (You can try, but you never get away with it!)” That delicious SMOKEY fragrance will give you away every time!  I truly feel like this is one of Reno County’s “Hidden Treasures”…there is nothing like sitting around Anne’s big round table with people from the community.  Love it!

Roy's BBQ

Anne & Ryan can whip up some MEAN BBQ!  There is NOTHING on the menu that I don’t like!

Ribs, Mild Sausage & Brisket

Ribs, Mild Sausage and Brisket… I can almost smell this sitting here at my desk!  It’s time for a Road Trip and a Fill ‘er Up Lunch!

Roys Ribs from the Pit

Ribs…Right out of the Smoker! Mmmm…All we need is some Roy’s Sauce!

Roy's Pork Shoulder or Turkey

Smoked Pork Shoulder and Turkey (One of my favorites!) The Turkey is just so moist and flavorful! Mmmmm…..

Screen shot 2013-05-20 at 10.47.09 AM

Anne (right) is just one of my favorite people on the PLANET! She is a wonderful business woman, has always been supportive of us at Adrians, and is such a positive ray of sunshine right here in our community!  If you’ve never made the trip out to the little yellow building at 1018 Nickerson Blvd. (aka 5th Street), Hutchinson, KS, please do yourself a favor and head out there THIS WEEK!  They OPEN at 11 and serve until the food is gone, usually between 2 & 3 pm.  The food is ALWAYS served hot, fresh & delicious!

I hope you’ve enjoyed the “TOUR” of Roy’s Hickory Pit BBQ… Please visit their Facebook Page and click the “LIKE” button…then drop by for a delicious lunch sometime this week!

Of course, we would love to have you bring your guests to Adrian’s Boutique in Buhler!
