Southern Living Names Wright’s Barbeque Best in Arkansas 2025
Southern Living just released, The Best Barbecue Joints In Every Southern State 2025, and one restaurant in Arkansas made the coveted list.
Wright’s Barbeque – Nationally Recognized
Based on votes from Southern Living readers Wright’s Barbeque with locations in Little Rock, Bentonville, Johnson, and Rogers serves some of the finest smoked meats in the state, Texas-inspired. Wright’s utilizes its Texas-style craft by using a row of Moberg offset smokers set up under tents in nearby Johnson to deliver the best brisket, pepper-spiked ribs, pulled pork, bacon burnt ends, and delicious sausage links. The restaurant has built its reputation on the best mouth-watering, hand-crafted slow-cooked authentic barbeque you’ve ever tasted. The barbeque brisket is wood-fired and cooked using Arkansas pecan wood to master the perfect tenderness and flavor and when you throw in their signature sauces, man it’s so good. See their menu here…
