• American • Nottingham

Booked 6 times today

Red Dog is an authentic Bar and American BAR-B-Q restaurant, serving 18-hour roast ribs, brisket, aged chuck steak burgers and much more, all best enjoyed with tasty cocktails or milkshakes.Barbeque grew up in the South of the USA where cooks learned to slow roast cuts of meat over fire pits to make them tender. Exposure to the smoke of the smouldering wood added a distinctive smoky and juicy taste to the meat. Our award-winning smokers have been imported from the USA and are built to recreate the cooking process of those original fire pits. We use the traditional American woods of hickory and mesquite to give a full smoke flavour, and the meat stays in the smoker for up to 18 hours.

We came up to Nottingham for our son’s 21st birthday, who is at Uni. We took 6 of us out for lunch and have to say the food was delicious. We all loved our meals and mentioned you need to open Bear in Watford, Hertfordshire. It would do really well down here. Thanks for a fab lunch :-)
