Smithfield's Chicken 'n Bar-B-Q Franchise Overview

About Smithfield’s Chicken ‘n Bar-B-Q

When the original Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q opened in downtown Smithfield in 1964, it was just called Smithfield’s. The location was next to a pre-WWII movie theater, a tall brick box with tin ceilings, cloth awnings, and a sink in the dining room so the farmers could wash up before supper. Since then, they have grown to over 30 restaurants serving Eastern N.C. style (or vinegar-based ) BBQ, potato salad, cole slaw, fried chicken, and sweetened iced tea. At Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q, they focus exclusively upon creating the most enjoyable dining experience possible for their customers. They are committed to being exceptional hosts, always serving fresh food fast, with superior service and quality – while never wasting time, food, nor forgetting their manners. At Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q, they are grateful to serve.
