ssweeney’s Review of Jones Family Bar-B-Que

MAIN FARE

  • Rib – Color is nice. Pink all the way through, with a nice mahogany exterior. There is definitely a "funk" to the flavor of this meat… What is up with this? Some of the bark is quite tough.
  • Brisket – Has a black and oily crust… uh-oh.  For such a crust, the meat has a fairly thin smoke ring.  The texture is a firm, stand-up style slice of brisket. Somewhat chewy.
  • Sausage – Pretty good. Skin is a bit chewy, but I like the texture and spice better than most today.

OTHER FARE

  • Beef Stew – A unique side item. Good.
  • Potato Salad – Is of the mustard variety.  Pretty good.
  • Cole Slaw – Just OK.
  • Pintos – Nicely done.
  • Baked Beans – Fair.
  • Peach & Cherry Cobblers – Good.
  • Banana Pudding – OK.
  • Mixture of the Cherry Cobbler and Banana Pudding – Excellent! (This was a recommendation from the staff).

ATMOSPHERE

  • Large volume of wood in the parking lot is generally a good sign.
  • Inside there are tons of "knick-knacks" with floral table coverings… hmmm.
