What happened after Man v. Food?

Osborne Family Farm was featured on the show's Little Rock episode that aired 2009-11-25, presented as a home barbecue hosted on owner Jennings Osborne's private farm property, a longstanding local tradition of feeding police, firefighters, and community guests rather than a walk-in restaurant. Osborne, known regionally for his large-scale holiday light displays, died in 2011, according to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. Following his death, several of the family's Little Rock-area properties, including a horse farm on Kanis Road known as Breezy Meadows, were sold at public auction; the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reported the auction underway on 2012-06-07, and the Arkansas Times reported the family's properties heading to auction on 2012-05-01. No evidence of a continuing public-facing business under the Osborne Family Farm name was found after the 2012 property sales, and no current website, listing, or social media presence for it could be located.
