our story

American soul Somerville Smoke

Some places feed a neighborhood. Redbones built one. And since '87, folks keep showin' up for it. We're talking pit-fired every morning, right wood for the right cut, and every American BBQ tradition under one roof.

Somerville’s BBQ Since ‘87

Southern Comfort, low & slow

The best of Texas, Carolina and St. Louis BBQ, smoked in one pit, under the same roof. And don't sleep on the fried chicken, Southern sides and classic desserts. All scratch-made and fresh daily.
Crafted Cocktails & Cold Drafts

Dozens of drafts, cans and bottles, from New England crafts, to garage favorites, and rare seasonals. All chosen with the same obsessive attention we give everything coming out of the pit.
Always Warm & welcoming

Since '87, Redbones has been the spot. Trivia nights, patio hangs, rowdy Saturdays, celebrations that start with ribs and end with last call. This is Somerville’s original BBQ, where the whole neighborhood eats.
