New BBQ Restaurant To Open In Downtown Silver Spring

SILVER SPRING, MD — A new barbecue restaurant called Lincoln's BBQ will replace A.G. Kitchen in Downtown Silver Spring, according to media reports. Lincoln's BBQ is planning to open mid-February at 931 Ellsworth Dr., in the same spot A.G. Kitchen closed this December.

According to Bethesda Magazine, Lincoln's Bar-Que is run by The Restaurant Group, which is the same company that opened A.G. Kitchen. The Assistant General Manager Philip Reeder told Bethesda Magazine that the company closed A.G. Kitchen because there are several Cuban and Latin restaurants in the Silver Spring area, and research shows there's a lack of barbecue options.

Lincoln's BBQ will have two 200-pound smokers to cook up tons of Southern barbecue, from brisket to pulled pork.

The Restaurant Group runs many different restaurants, including New York City, North Carolina and D.C.
