Popular local Texas BBQ concept shares GoFundMe after facing ‘life-altering decision’

Sav McKee

Akil Steele, owner of the popular food truck Texas Steele BBQ, along with his family, are going through a tremendously difficult time. 

Akil’s wife, Jen, recently had to face a life-altering decision that led to the amputation of both of her feet after a long battle with diabetes, the Go Fund Me page says. “This has not only changed her life physically but has also created significant financial strain for the family, including Akil and Jen’s two boys, 12 and 5 months old, due to mounting medical bills and necessary adjustments to their living situation.”

Casey, a family friend, created the fundraiser in hopes that the community can support the family during this challenging journey. “Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a difference and help ease the burden they are facing,” said Casey. “Thank you for your generosity and kindness.”

Donated funds will help with medical bills, physical rehab, living costs, medical equipment, and keeping Texas Steele BBQ afloat while the family navigates this incredibly difficult time.
