City Barbeque operates as a regional fast-casual restaurant concept centered on slow-smoked barbecue, with scratch-made sides and desserts prepared in-house and smoked over local hickory wood. Based in Dublin, Ohio, the company traces its origins to 1999 when founder Rick Malir started the business in a converted donut shop, and it has since grown to roughly 100 restaurants across the Midwest and Southeast, with ongoing plans to enter new markets. The menu is supported by recognition for its barbecue, including the American Royal Invitational World Champion Brisket, along with honors from Restaurant Hospitality and the National Turkey Federation. In addition to dine-in and takeout, City Barbeque provides catering for thousands of events annually, including more than 2,000 weddings. City Barbeque donates around 10% of pre-tax profits to local charities and community partners, reflecting its engagement with local communities. Recent expansion included opening a new location in Johnson City, Tennessee in December 2025.
