    Welcome to Johnson Family Barbecue

    We're glad you found Durham's favorite family-owned, hole in the wall barbecue joint. We smoke all our meat over hickory wood for up to 10 hours, so you know you are getting authentic, Eastern NC BBQ, handmade sides and desserts with great service every time you walk in the door. We're open for lunch and dinner, so let us show you what we're all about.

    The flavor of the meat was pronounced and the hickory smoky was subtle and divine. It was the taste of hickory wood or charcol...not beat you about the head smoke...it was a taste Paradise

                                                                   --Baron B. , from Yelp Review

     

    Best BBQ around, hush puppies are amazing, this place rocks.

                                                                   --Cory H. , from Google+ Review

     

    With the ever-increasing tendency to smoke barbecue over gas or electric, it was nice to find a small, family-owned, self described “hole in the wall” joint that is still putting in the work to create a good product.
