- I own Ben's eXtreme Bar-B-Q Smokehouse in Forked River, NJ where we try teaching other locals what REAL SLOW SMOKED BBQ is. It's been tough going, but we're still here!
24 April 08 Hi y'all, We just opened a second location at 439 Rt. 9 in Bayville at the Berkeley Plaza, near Shoprite. It has most of our BBQ items plus Steaks, Seafood, Salads and lots of other things. You can see our full menu at www.exbbq.com. It's just 4 miles South of exit 80 on the Garden State PKWY. Just follow Rt. 9 South until you see McDonalds and turn left into the Shoprite parking lot. Cya there! Ben
- Favorite Restaurant in New Jersey?
- Of course Ben's eXtreme Bar-B-Q Smokehouse has to be my favorite. We're open everyday from 11 AM to 8 PM and stay open to 9PM on Friday and Saturday. We do lots of catering, pig roasts and special events.

New Menu
Hi Again, I forgot to mention that we're working on a new menu. We've added Homemade Pastrami that even New Yorkers say is GREAT! We make it into a plain pastrami sandwich or into a Pastrami Ruben. On the new menu, it'll also be part of the combo platter. We'll also be offering smaller appetizers, since the normal one's are way too big for one person. We've added some of the old Friendly's Bar & Grill favorites like Chicken Marsala and Francais! On the new menu it'll be calls "Chicken Specia… Continue

Hi All, I've been told about how important getting on to facebook is to help advertise a business. I just started my facebook site under my name "Ben Fisher" and a group called Ben's eXtreme Bar-B-Q Smokehouse & Grill. I'm not totally sure how I'll proceed from here, but it's a start, and something all family owned small restaurants might consider. Business has been sloooooooowly picking up due to word of mouth recommending our sloooooooooowly smoked BBQ. I sure hope this economy picks up ag… Continue

Thanks for the info. The only free day we have this weekend is Sunday, so, unfortunately, we won't see you. But it's good to know they won't "run out" of BBQ by Sunday...we have some friends from up north who will be down in a few weeks and we're going to stop by Extreme BBQ- they were impressed when we ordered for them last time, as the best they know of up there is Cubby's in Hackensack (not bad, but not the real deal like yours). They also exclaimed that the "man at the fryer knows his business" while munching on a hush puppy.Keep it up!

Are you going to the NJ State BBQ championship in Wildwood this weekend (or have you been to it before)? We're thinking of going to check it out, but were wondering what day would be better- Friday or Sunday? Let us know if you have any advice!
Thanks,
Lisa
It's the best thing going on foodwise in our little town of Forked River. We will definitely do a write up of your place on our blog.
