Since 1946 and 3 generations, Red Bridges Barbecue Lodge is one of the only few places left that slow cooks pork over hickory all night long. We feel that this is the only way to get the true oak wood flavor. Read more about our history to learn all about how family, good barbecue, and Shelby, NC came to be so special to us!

Apply for a jobThis is a family favor! The homemade slaw is delicious, along with the housemaid hush puppies! And of course, the barbecue! We have decades of family memories here, and grateful to revisit them each time we walk in to the restaurant
If you're looking for great BBQ, this place is a must-try! The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the service was friendly and attentive. The BBQ was cooked perfectly, but the real star of the meal was the hush puppies they were hands down the best I've ever had! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of flavor. Everything came out fresh and hot. We'll definitely be back the next time we're craving BBQ! Highly recommend.
Very good barbeque. Customer service was wonderful. Try the hush puppies.
Great food, service, and atmosphere. Our food was prepared quickly. Our server was very friendly. Each thing we ordered was delicious. I bought sauce to take back home to the Midwest. Don't forget to order some banana pudding for dessert!
