Free banana pudding if you mention Alabama defensive lineman DJ Dale at Saw’s BBQ. One of the best uses of NIL I’ve seen. We all win. https://t.co/PdD26Lhgjy

The promotion was also a sweet way to announce that Dale has signed a NIL with the popular restaurant. No word yet on what kind of compensation Dale will receive from this deal.
Saw’s was started by North Carolina native Mike Wilson who opened his business in 2009. Besides banana pudding, the restaurant serves North Carolina-style bbq and has several locations. Wilson and his partners also opened a soul food restaurant as well.
Men’s Journal proclaimed Saw’s as “The best bbq in America.”
Fans who are in the Birmingham area can find out why.
