About Oakland Dust

The story of Oakland Dust goes back to when I was a child, sitting shotgun outside Flints BBQ in my pop’s idling ’75 Cutlass.

Pop’s would roll to Flints on Shattuck Avenue just about every Sunday, pick-up a full slab, hot links, and extra wonder bread to soak up all that goodness.
