After experimenting with BBQ using his own recipes for sauces and spices, Ronnie Bishop opened the first Bishop’s BBQ and Grill in Saltillo, MS, April 21, 2008. The Belden store opened its doors November 29, 2011. With opportunity knocking at our door, we opened a third store in Booneville on October 14, 2012. On April 1, 2014, We opened a location in tupelo, Eli’s BBQ, it was later changed to Bishop’s BBQ as well. A few years later we set up shop in Mooreville as a humble food truck, and then constructed a brand new brick and mortar store.
