Abstract:
Paul \"Speedy\" Lohr opened Speedy's Barbecue as a drive-in in Lexington in 1963. Roy and Boyd Dunn worked at Speedy's since the beginning. Roy and a cousin bought the place from Lohr in the early 1970s. Boyd later bought out the cousin, and the two brothers have run it since 1978 as a restaurant--not a drive-in, though there is still a window where customers can order from outside. Speedy's is well-known for its large servings of Lexington style barbecue.
