Hot Springs and Little Rock may be considered the BBQ champion cities of Arkansas but that doesn’t mean those are the only places for a savory bite. One teeny tiny BBQ joint in Pine Bluff is well worth a visit (or three). Lil D’s BBQ may be small but don’t underestimate them – they serve up huge flavors! Any carnivore lover will be delighted with this Pine Bluff stop so let’s stop drooling and start scrolling:
Although they're still pretty new to the Arkansas BBQ scene, Lil D's has already become a fan favorite.
The small business opened in April of 2019 on Harding Avenue in Pine Bluff. It may be a blink-and-you-miss-it shop but once you discover this tiny but mighty joint you'll be hooked!
Lil D's smokes all the mouthwatering meats on-site for guaranteed freshness.
The ribs are Lil D's signature dish but their menu has quite the variety. Savory BBQ meats include turkey, Polish sausages, chicken, and pork. In addition to the BBQ, Lil D's also has fish dinners and burgers.
COVID-19 has continued to put local businesses in a difficult place but that did not stop Lil D's generosity. For most of last year Lil D's owner, Daryl Graydon, fed anyone impacted by the pandemic for free. Essential employees, furloughed workers, first responders, teachers, and others were helped because of Lil D's kindness.
