Jerk chicken is our top seller for good reasons. It is the finest, juiciest, and most impressive jerk in the Berkshires. Our chicken is marinated for hours in a mix of Caribbean herbs and spices. It is then cooked slowly to create that fall-off-the-bone tender texture. The well-rounded hot, herbal, and spicy flavor is second to none.
The deliciousness of braised oxtails can’t be overstated. Braised oxtail is beef from a cow with a taste that resembles short ribs, but is even silkier and more tender. We cook it slowly for hours. Fork tender is not good enough. It needs to melt in your mouth. Pair it with our luscious baked mac & cheese and sauteed cabbage for a perfect dinner.

PATTY NASEY2025-02-22 My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at BB’s Hotspot at the Lantern. The ribs were flavorful and fall-off-the-bone tender. The jerk chicken was mouth-wateringly delicious . All of the sides were amazing. Can’t wait to go back for dinner! Carrie Tilley2025-02-07 Back in the area again for work, so of course I had to stop at BB's. This time I had a Dark and Stormy to drink and the Curried Goat with red beans & rice and cabbage. All of the staff was super sweet. I can't wait for my next trip to the area. Alison Sneider2025-01-28 I've been there twice. Both times, the food was delicious! Not for the faint of heart if you do not like spicy (Jamaican) food, though. I've had jerk chicken and curried chicken, both times w rice and collards. On my second visit, I sampled the curried goat from a friend's plate and it, too, was very good. We also split a pulled pork quesadilla as our appetizer, and all agreed that it was great. More people need to go here!!! We went on a Tuesday night and, while there were a lot of take-out orders, there was only one other couple eating in. Service is relaxed - the food comes out when it comes out - so don't go if you're in a hurry. Cody Arana2025-01-09 Grabbed a few drinks and the service made me feel at home. Cool place.
