Katherine Pendrill — June 13, 2018 — Business
While Ree Drummond is already well known for her award-winning food cooking show 'The Pioneer Woman,' now the chef is taking up a new challenge with plans to open a pizza restaurant called P-Town Pizza.
P-Town Pizza is a brand new pizzeria located in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. The restaurant will feature wood-fire cooked pizzas, as well as wings, salads, desserts, and craft cocktails. The restaurant is a joint venture with Drummond's husband of 21 years, Ladd. It is also the second venture for the couple, with their first restaurant The Mercantile opening back in 2016 to rave reviews. In fact, The Mercantile has been so successful that it helped Pawhuska, a tiny town of just 3,500 residents, push its visitors to 6,000 per day.
