Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain will host a special “meat and greet” event this Wednesday, January 29, from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Rock N Roll Ribs, the barbecue establishment he co-owns with close friend Mitch Tanne in Coral Springs, Florida. According to McBrain’s wife, fans will have the opportunity for photos with the drummer, though autographs won’t be available.

Rock N Roll Ribs, which combines Southern barbecue with rock music culture, features a menu that pays tribute to Iron Maiden through creatively named dishes. These include the “Final Frontier” dog, “Moonchild Mahi” sandwich, and “Aces High” fries, alongside traditional barbecue favorites like smoked pork and chicken.

Speaking about the restaurant in a 2010 interview, McBrain noted, “It’s not just MAIDEN fans that come in. While we do get many people making pilgrimages to see the memorabilia on our walls, most customers leave satisfied with their experience. And we keep our prices reasonable – a rack of ribs costs [$20], and you get between a pound and a quarter to a pound and a half of ribs.
