R. J. BOAR'S is awarding franchise opportunities in the Midwest to qualified individuals. We specialize in hickory-smoked ribs, chicken and beef. As a niche player in the casual theme restaurant category, we realized very early on that a broad and varied menu of popular items was a crucial factor in determining our formula. That's why R. J. BOAR'S has such a diverse menu, including signature appetizers, specialty salads, fresh fish, tender steaks and award-winning hickory-smoked BBQ.
