Owners Bernie and Linda Watson created LJ’s BBQ to replicate the
feel of the “Eat it ‘n Beat It” authentic roadside barbecues that
Bernie’s family from Arkansas and Virginia had come to love.
LJ’s is named after Bernie’s wife, Linda and his late grandmother
Miss Leola Jean, whose recipes fill the menu.
LJ’s opened in 2001 to a host of critical reviews including "Best of
Rhode Island".
Today, LJ’s continues to offer outstanding family values and genuine
down home cooked meals. LJ’s has achieved their proven track record
as an Award Winning Barbecue Restaurant by specializing in the
preparation and service of hickory smoked ribs, chicken, beef, and
pork, prepared by low and slow cooking in their customized barbecue
pit.
