Texas Style BBQ Restaurant in Norwich  

Variety of grilled and smoked meats including sausages, ribs, chicken wings, and burgers served on black plates and trays with garnishes and sauces.

This Isn't Humble BBQ, This Is The Arrogant BBQ.

We started with two mates Dom and Jim who were cocky enough to know their BBQ was the best around.

We don't mess around with fancy gimmicks. Everything we do is about proper BBQ — slow cooked, smoky, and dripping with flavour. Every rack of ribs, every brisket, every burnt end is cooked with care, patience, and a bit of swagger.

Our ingredients are local, our sauces are secret, and our portions are unapologetically big. We cater for everyone; meat lovers, vegans and gluten free because good food should never leave anyone out.

Built on Smoke and Stubbornness

Before Bridewell Alley, there were market stalls. Before the market stalls, there was a back garden, a second hand smoker, and two mates who refused to eat another bland burger.

The feedback was always the same: this is the best BBQ I've ever had.So they backed themselves. Started trading at events across Norfolk and Built a catering operation that's fed hundreds at weddings, festivals, and corporate events. And when Norwich kept asking for more, they opened the doors at 3 Bridewell Alley and made it permanent.

No corperate investors, No franchise playbook. Just two people who know what good BBQ tastes like and aren't afraid to say it.

Our BBQ Isn't Humble. It's Bold, It's Loud, and It's Unforgettable.

We know it's the best you'll try, and we'll prove it every single time.

It's what happens when you watch someone take their first bite of our smoked brisket cheeseburger and go completely silent, When a table orders the Mixed Smoked Meat Tray and nobody speaks for ten minutes, When someone drives from the other side of Norfolk because their mate told them they had to.

We called it The Arrogant BBQ because we'd rather be honest than humble. The food speaks for itself. We just make sure it's loud enough.

Tray with grilled chicken wings, sausages, ribs with sauce, corn on the cob with pink pickled onions and green garnish, sliced meat with herbs, and sides of macaroni and pulled meat topped with crispy bits.
Tray with a bowl of creamy pasta topped with shredded meat, green sauce, and dollops of white sauce, a sesame-seeded bun sandwich, and a plate of seasoned chicken wings garnished with herbs.

More Than Just BBQ, We Bring the Experience

The Arrogant BBQ isn't about slapping food on a plate. It's about creating a moment people remember. The smell of smoke in the air, the sound of brisket hitting the board, and the taste that shuts down all conversation at the table.

Whether you're tucking into a takeaway on your sofa or booking us to fire up your event, we're here to deliver BBQ that leaves an impression.
