How locals rank it
From the local food press
- Southern
Great Northern BBQ Co grew out of a food truck into a small storefront in the West End, cooking Southern-style barbecue that one local reviewer noted is not hard to find in Rhode Island once you know where to look. The little nook on Parade Street has become a regular stop for smoked meats away from the busier downtown strip.

- BBQ
A West End smokehouse tucked into a small nook that grew out of a food-truck operation before settling into its Parade Street storefront. Rhode Island Monthly's 2024 feature on the city's newer restaurants files it under Southern-style barbecue, a description the shop itself leans into. It's a quieter alternative to the more visible barbecue spots closer to downtown.
