Ridgewood Brothers BBQ

OMG! BEST RIBS and BRISKET I've ever had! Hubby got the Bronco, a huge pile of pulled pork, brisket, and sausage on a bun. It was huge!! But it was so good that he bought a 2nd one! The owner was so friendly! He even gave us a tour of his smoking operation! Im so bummed this place is like 6 hours from us! Just roadtripping thru and looking at google maps for best bbq places!!

If you’re anywhere near Russellville, AR, Ridgewood Brothers BBQ is a must-stop. The food was absolutely outstanding — perfectly smoked meats with incredible flavor, tenderness, and just the right amount of bark. You can truly taste the care and craftsmanship in every bite. A big shoutout to Robert “Bob” — he was super attentive and incredibly knowledgeable about the meats and their preparation methods. He took the time to explain the smoking process, cuts, and flavor profiles, which made the whole experience even better. You can tell he’s passionate about what they serve. The sides were just as impressive, and the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed. Top-notch BBQ and top-notch service. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re passing through Russellville!

Good food and a very friendly staff. Great flavor on the meats. Didn't personally think the bbq sauce was the best, but still had a good flavor. The flavor of the meat was good enough that I didn't want to put sauce on it anyways so it worked out. Best green beans I've ever put in my mouth. Even my green bean hating child liked them. The Key Lime crumble and Banana pudding were both fantastic also. The idea that either of those could also be one of your sides and not a separate dessert menu thing you have to pay extra for is genius. We will certainly be back again.

What a fantastic local BBQ place!!! Ridgewood Brothers rivals any BBQ place anywhere!!! My wife loves her baked potato with Turkey. This was a ginormous baked potato. It had almost 1/2 a pound of turkey and would feed 3 people. I got a half pound of turkey to go and a spicy jalapeno meat plate. Great stuff. Our son got at brisket and turkey plate. It was super tasty. We tried the burnt ends in line as a sample and that delicious too. Both house sauces, hot and sweet were great. I judge a good southern BBQ by its banana pudding. Winner winner!!! Great place!!!

Got the two meat dinner with pulled pork and sliced brisket. Pulled pork was great, brisket was tender but rather fatty in my opinion. Brisket was a pretty small portion for the price. They charge $4.75 extra for the brisket. That's a little on the pricey side from other BBQ places I have been to. Also charge $.50 for a glass of water. Mixed greens and the baked beans were seasoned well and good. They give you bread, pickles and onions upon request. Cafeteria style with no servers. Get your own drinks, utensils, napkins, etc. Bus you own table. They have two separate areas to eat. One with A/C and a area without.
