Just tried Ohanas in Coventry. Wife had ribs, I had brisket. We both thought it was pretty good.

Wasn't as keen on their maple bourbon it Hawaiian BBQ sauce (too pineapple for me), but the meat was good.

Hot rod cafe in new london, you wont be disappoint

Black dog in killingly

I thought the troop of hot waiters were gonna beat his ass, I would watch that 7 times in a row. Or that the table guy was gonna pull a gun, lol. You. Do not. FAAFO. On Federal Hill!!!

Yes

Did they collide and not care, or was it just super close?

Great Northern in providence is totally decent.

They've unfortunately closed, they would've been my pick too :(

Scituate mass or RI?

Look, you’re going to find fairly acceptable BBQ but this is like asking where to find the best chowder and clam cakes in Texas. It’s just not right.

Perhaps in big metro areas they are placed more strategically? But we have one down here on aquidneck island in Portsmouth which is not considered low income. And in my travels to NH I've seen them in high tourist areas with super nice houses. So I think maybe it's a bit of both. Rich people love a deal too. Half the time they're cheaper than the low income people 🙄

I’m new here. So I won’t say best. But really love the menu at BJ’s restaurant and brewhouse tonight.

Anyone want to explain the downvotes?

Huzzah a man of quality

Easily the best Brisket in RI is Our Table. They have a semi-permanent popup in the Buttonwoods Brewery taproom. You do need to follow them on Insta, because they only do brisket 1 or 2 times a week (the Chef smokes a Texas style brisket at home overnight). Its fantastic.

Brass Monkey is p good

The cauliflower bites are excellent too!

(Why the hell would anyone down vote this?)

Chomp

Was just in Middletown. Read a review that it was good but didn’t try it.

Best I’ve had around here is Smokeshop which has some locations around Boston

Durks is good in Prov. The rest I’ve had around is decent but nothing jumps out.

I like Durks best because their meats are quite good and close to TX bbq. The sides are acceptable not great. No one around here has good sides. Durks whiskey selection elevated the place for me.

Honestly. Having had every one of the best in and around central Texas nothing here compares. Especially smoked turkey at Franklin and the beef ribs at a Louie Miller. So damn good. The only thing I’ve not gotten to have is the chicken at Snows.

Damn!

I’ve been liking the wings at the Mew’s in Wakefield, the smoked wings are hit or miss, but the regular wings are really good. Big, meaty, and good variety of sauces.

Haversham in Westerly. They’re just always good and consistent, and they don’t have a weird breading (why is that a thing?).
