HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) -
Two Huntsville Fire units responded to Dreamland Bar-B-Que where the roof appeared to be on fire.
Firefighters deployed the ladder from their ladder truck and climbed onto the roof.
Fire officials said the cause is under investigation. They worked to contain the fire in a smoke exhaust pipe on the roof.
The exhaust pipes were installed to control smoke coming out of the Bar-B-Que pit, but since the chimney was rebuilt, they were no longer necessary. Crews on the scene said there was a lot of ash and soot built up inside the exhaust pipes.
Dreamland employees and fire officials said they are working to contain the fire before the restaurant opens for lunch.
