2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar in Raynham Reopens After Being Hit By Fire

A barbecue spot south of Boston has returned to its space after closing down due to a fire that heavily damaged it in the spring.

According to a source, 2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar in Raynham is open once again, with a Facebook post from the place saying that they are open for dinner with lunch service on the way soon--and as mentioned earlier, the back room of the place has been turned into "a more authentic southern market dining experience." The post also indicates that 2 Jerks will continue to work with the Easton Country Club, where they offered indoor/outdoor dining and takeout while recovering from the fire, saying that "We look forward to continuing that partnership for many years to come!"

2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar was hit by a blaze in May that apparently started due to excess grease in a smoker that caused quite a bit of damage to the space, though the fire took place when the restaurant was empty and no one was injured.

The address for 2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar is 701 Broadway, Raynham, MA, 02767. Its website can be found at http://2jerksbbq.com/

According to an article from 7 News Boston, 2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar in Raynham was hit by a blaze early Thursday morning, with firefighters being able to quickly extinguish the fire. It appears that the blaze started due to excess grease in a smoker, and fortunately the place was empty at the time and there were no injuries.

At this time, we are unsure of the impact this will have on our operation but will keep you all posted as soon as we have an idea of how long we will need to be closed."

[July 8 update: A Facebook comment from 2 Jerks Kitchen & Bar indicates that the restaurant could be reopening later this month or early next month, while its Facebook page shows that it has popped up at the Easton Country Club for indoor/outdoor dining and takeout in the meantime.]

[November 18 update: Wicked Local states that 2 Jerks hopes to reopen its Raynham location in a few weeks, and it will also continue to operate out of the Easton Country Club as well. (The post also says that the back dining room in Raynham will become a Texas roadside-style market.)]
