Holland cafe cited for containers of moldy strawberries

Each week, the Ottawa County Department of Public Health releases a round-up of recent safety inspections at restaurants, schools and other facilities. Adhering to proper safety practices is critical to preventing foodborne illness and promoting public health. The Sentinel publishes regular reports on “priority” violations — ones that could directly lead to contamination of food or increase the risk of transmitting a foodborne illness, as well as corrective measures taken. The Sentinel also reports on “priority foundation” violations — ones that could lead to a priority violation. The health department notes “core” violations, but The Sentinel only reports on those if there’s a significant accumulation at a single eatery or the inspection noted more serious violations. All reports are available at miottawa.org/health/environmental/food-services .

Back 40 BBQ expands menu, plans to open food trailer

Back 40 BBQ has expanded beyond smoked pretzels, adding barbecue, smoked cream cheese dips and plans for a food trailer heading into 2027. The family-owned business — run by Ryan DeCheney, his wife Holly, and their children Kaylin and Lily — has grown since a previous feature in July. The idea formed after a friend asked DeCheney whether he'd ever smoked hard pretzels. A lifelong passion for cooking (and a smoker he'd purchased the previous year) encouraged experimentation. The result was Back 40 BBQ, which recently released a holiday cranberry orange pretzel blend, adding to existing flavors garlic parmesan, maple bourbon and white cheddar jalapeno. The business also unveiled two smoked cream cheese dips (caramel apple pie and jalapeno popper) and had a soft launch during an event by Zomburgers. “The goal has always been to serve food,” DeCheney told The Sentinel. “That's my passion." The business now has a tent to serve chicken, pulled pork sandwiches, ribs, macaroni and cheese, maple bourbon coleslaw and more. The company caters events and offers corporate gift boxes. More: Holland family turns smoked pretzel hobby into full-time business DeCheney said the next natural step is opening a food trailer, which the family hopes
