BBQ Name Generator
This is a restaurant name generator that I used to create the unique BBQ food-related names below it by using these keywords (joint, BBQ, spicy, ribs, pork, smoke, fire).
Get the best results by first brainstorming a list of keywords. These are words and phrases (2 or more words) that relate to your company’s service and products. They do not have to be necessarily the ones that will be contained in your final restaurant name.
An easy way to brainstorm keywords to use in name generators is to use Google. Put in your restaurant type (BBQ) plus “keywords”.
Words to Use Name Your BBQ Restaurant
| Smoke | Smokers | Pigs |
| Hog | Hawg | Smokin’ |
| Meaty | Kansas | Carolina |
| Wild | Burger | Texas |
| America | Sauced | Spicy |
| Meat | Ribs | Southern |
| Sauce | Memphis | Brisket |
Scroll through the page and pick up related words. I found these additional keywords = cookout, place, grilling, summer, pappa, American, heritage, meat. You get the idea.

Expert Tips for Naming Your Barbecue Restaurants
According to the experts at Southern Living (who know lots about BBQ naming)
1- Skip the saucy name – Those slightly risque names with bones and butts can be a turn-off to some customers, especially families which are big Barbeque eaters. These names also age quickly.
2- Go with the Pig – Names that utilize the word – Pig – are very popular. Also they pair well with other P words such as porky, pure, peachy, Poppy, etc.
3-Add your name – Over 64% of the barbeque restaurant names on the Top 50 Southern BBQ Joint incorporate the owners (or BBQ pitmasters) names.
Consider using an interesting phrase and adding your own name to personalize. USE your last name (or full name) instead of only your first name. There are many Billy’s in town but only a few of your last name – to avoid confusing your diners.
