WHO WE ARE

R&R BBQ started as a hobby. Our founders were barbecuing for friends and family and soon entered competitions in the Salt Lake City area. Win after win led them to regional contests which ultimately qualified them to compete in the largest contests in the US where they placed among the top teams.The first R&R BBQ storefront then opened in 2013 in downtown Salt Lake City, followed 2 years later by the second location in South Jordan.

Today there are 12 restaurants located in three states with rapid growth to new markets in the near future. Our recipes, spice rubs, BBQ sauces, and smoking techniques remain unchanged since the early days of competition, with our goal to continue to win our most important contest every day – pleasing each and every guest.
