LRB Provisions, the much-anticipated sandwich spot from longtime Durham chef Amanda Orser (who cooked at places like Magnolia Grill and Littler) is now open on Guess Road. Orser turned a former Dog House hotdog stand into a place for scratch‑made sandwiches, fresh bread and house‑smoked pastrami. It’s the kind of neighborhood lunch joint that sells out fast because everything’s made the same day, but, luckily, staples like Orser’s pastrami and smoked trout are available to purchase by the pound to enjoy at home later.

A neighborhood gem for sure! I'm typically don't eat meat or fish but this was an exception. The smoked trout is smoked perfectly that it's not overwhelmingly smokey flavor but a nice balance. I really enjoyed the home made potato chips too. A great place to pick and have something homemade. Definitely will return.

I stopped by for lunch today since I saw they are doing hotdog specials on Thursday on Instagram. This was their first one and it was a Detroit coney dog. They were so good! Plus they baked their own buns which really took it to the next level. I also tried their house made chips - omg these were incredible. So light and crispy and seasoned so well! They do have a few tables outside to sit at. The staff was all very friendly. I will absolutely be back!! I also love that they repurposed the Dog House building since it is so cute.

LRB has great food and the drinks are super too. I want to try their desserts soon. The staff is super friendly. Even though there were several folks in line in front of me, my order came quickly. I went on a Thursday which is throwback to the days when it was a hot dog stand. The hot dogs are the best in town and their buns are primo!

Well, that was fantastic! Dogs were perfect, chips were great, onion dip was delicious! My only gripe is the dip has to be easier to scoop with the chips or the chips need more structural integrity. I had to bring in a spoon for the assist lol…there were no survivors for the photo… Parking was a breeze in their large lot, I went on a Thursday afternoon around 11:30am and didn’t have to wait too long for my order. I’ll definitely be back and add this place to my normal rotation

For anyone that needs to know, this is a walk up, not a walk in (no seating). Parking was pretty easy, but I can see that being a problem with popularity. Currently not accepting takeout or online orders, but hey it's Day 5. Line was pretty short when I got there at 11:45am and turnaround was maybe 10 minutes. On to the food... The roasted carrot soup was lovely. Could have used a little more texture than just the pepitas and maybe add a mint leaf. The housemade chips were outstanding. Every chip crispy and well-seasoned. Must have. The Pastor sandwich was killer. Needed 5 napkins. Every bite so flavorful and the semolina roll just soaked up so much goodness. Gamechanger The Barkie was fine. Tasted good, but the wrap didn't really save it from getting hard. I would microwave it in a damp papertowel, and it would probably be better. Definitely would get the sandwich and chips again.
