Love BBQ NJ
Your Guide to the Best BBQ Across the Garden State
🔥 Our Story
Love BBQ NJ was born out of one simple idea — New Jersey has incredible BBQ and not enough people know about it.
From award-winning food trucks on back roads to Shore-side smokehouses, NJ's BBQ scene is world class. We built this guide to celebrate it, grow it, and make sure every great pit and smokehouse in the state gets the attention it deserves.
Real places, real food, and real love for BBQ — that's what we're about.
❤️ What We Stand For
Local First
We champion family-owned and independent BBQ spots over national chains.
Honest & Real
Every restaurant is here because it's genuinely great, not because they paid to be featured.
Community Driven
Built by NJ BBQ lovers, for NJ BBQ lovers. Your suggestions shape this guide.
Always Growing
We're constantly adding new spots, updating info, and exploring every corner of NJ.
