Real BarBQ Closes in Canton

RealBarBQ has closed its doors at 42452 Ford Road in Canton due to the restaurant not bringing in enough revenue, according to an article in the Observer & Eccentric.

The restaurant was known for never steaming, freezing or reheating any of its foods and claims to use top-of-the-line smokers to cook its meats for up to 20 hours over locally grown cherry and oak trees.

RealBarBQ also sold its location in Lincoln Park and closed its restaurant in Detroit, according to the Observer & Eccentric.

RealBarBQ was also known for being very involved in the Canton community. As Patch has previously reported, the restaurant helped collect 200 school supplies for Salvation Army, held a of Metro Detroit, and hosted an event that raised money for a Canton widow battling cancer.
