Skip has been a loyal customer at Roy’s Backyard BBQ since day one. When Roy’s first opened in May 2011 he was one of their very first customer. Skip was at Roy’s eight days out of the first ten days they were open. Skip and his friend Karen were here for the first beer sold. Skip and Karen’s business has been, and is very much appreciated.

Skip came into the restaurant one day and asked if he could try something a bit different. That’s when he invented Skip’s BBQ Chicken Dippin’ Salad. He decided to have a fresh red lace salad, tomatoes, onions, Roy’s BBQ chicken on top, with a side of BBQ sauce to dip the salad in. Since the salad was created it has been very popular. Roy and Kim asked Skip to come up with a good name for his salad. Skip decided on Skip’s BBQ Chicken Dippin’ Salad.

At Roy’s Backyard BBQ on 109 S. Main Street, Roy and Kim strive to continuously involve Lake County’s community. They love to keep a family atmosphere, because it’s people like Skip and his BBQ Chicken Dippin’ Salad who are great assets to Lakeport. Roy and Kim are extremely active in Lake County’s community, sponsoring the B69’s race car, and giving donations to support Clearlake Performing Arts, VFW, Soper-Reese Theatre and many more. They plan on continuing their support in the future.
