“BBQ joint in Groton, CT”
Brisket, Ribs, Pulled Pork and Carolina style BBQ. Best barbecue in CT. Voted Best Brisket in CT by CT Magazine. Chester left East Lyme right after high school to seek his fortune in the Marine Corps. After active duty he moved to Kansas City and quickly fell in love with the local cuisine. After stops in St. Louis, Omaha and Chicago, he returned home to Connecticut to open Chester’s Barbecue. The original store was 300 SF, eight seats and one tiny smoker. Within six months he was sleeping in the store to keep up with the demand. Barbecue varies by region so we try to cover the gambit from Texas beef brisket to mid-Atlantic pulled pork. We even added corned beef with mustard sauce after some customer prodding on St. Paddy’s Day. We hope you enjoy our barbecue as much as we enjoy bringing it to you. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. We are a family owned business and want to make it right.
