What S Mather likes about Jon Jon's:
To make excellent BBQ, it takes a lot of care and attention. This BBQ is good: the chicken and ribs were tender, the brisket was a little dry but still tender. No smoke ring on the meats to indicate excellent technique. The beans weren't my favorite (tasted too much like ketchup) and the potato salad was a little mushed. The portion of meat was generous, but was resting in a pool of sauce; I prefer sauce on the side... View all feedback. What J F doesn't like about Jon Jon's:
I heard it was better way back when. I was not impressed. Tasteless meat. Rib was dry, brisket was juicy but without any bark to it, and without any taste. Don't know if they had a bad day or something, but it was disappointing. View all feedback.

I always look for places that have good food but are light, shall we say, on the decor. Jon-Jon's is such a place. Real southern BBQ cooked in the smoker out in...

I really enjoy Jon-Jon's BBQ. Pretty much every meat I've had there is good. I need to go back there sometime soon.

The ribs are outstanding. Never dry or over cooked. The BBQ sauce is slightly sweet. The brisket sandwich is also a 5. It is only open from 11-5, but a must try...
