Bill Miller Bar-B-Q plans to use its current headquarters as a production facility to supplement store production once the new headquarters is built and ready to go.Whether it be San Antonio residents or out-of-town visitors, Bill Miller Bar-B-Q CEO and President Jim Guy Egbert said people are always asking about the horn they hear sounding off from the company’s downtown headquarters.of downtown for 13 seconds every weekday at noon and 5 p.m.
It’s common for people to walk into the headquarters and ask about the sound, Egbert said. It’s something he said employees and passersby alike enjoy. “It’s been around for a long time,” Egbert said. “There’s a lot of folks who recognize it and associate Bill Miller Bar-B-Q with that air horn, so it’s kind of been a nostalgic thing for a lot of folks.”For almost two decades Maria Z. Aguillon and her co-workers at Goodwill Industries of San Antonio on West Commerce wondered what the sound was and last year learned that it was coming from the Bill Miller headquarters on South Santa Rosa Avenue.
