Chef Sean Sherman's upcoming venture, Šhotá Indigenous BBQ by Owamni, aims to introduce Indigenous barbecue to the Twin Cities. This initiative is part of Sherman's nonprofit, NATIFS, promoting Indigenous culinary traditions. The Indigenous Food Lab is relocating to the Woyute Thipi Building on Franklin Avenue, coinciding with Sherman's plans for further expansion to other cities. Sherman's efforts significantly highlight Indigenous foodways, advocating for access to culturally specific foods while fostering community engagement. Construction for the barbecue restaurant is expected to begin in July, reflecting a growing commitment to Indigenous cuisine.
