Horsman BBQ is a pop-up that has a small changing menu but it is very good. He's usually at What Cheer Tavern every other Sunday and occasionally has pop-ups at other places like the Gansett Brewery in PVD or in Pawtuxet Village during the Gaspee Days. I'd say to follow his IG.

Durks is pretty good. I personally enjoy them, but it doesn't compare the a true southern BBQ joint. It's the best brick and morter spot in the greater Providence area that I can think of.

BBQ seems like a strange thing where what one person says is great another will say is trash, so you just gotta try it for yourself.

I heard people talk up Wes' Ribhouse in Olneyville, I went once and it was truly horrible.

B.T.'s Smokehouse in Sturbridge MA was a place that my friend made sound like it was gonna be the best bbq I ever had. I went once and it was good. Did not live up to the hype, but there was nothing bad. It wasn't worth the 45 minute wait, tho.

Enjoy the experience of checking out places!
