We recently did a motorcycle ride up to Spruce Pine and stopped by CJ's BBQ. The service was…read moreexcellent with the server quickly taking our order and getting our drinks to us. The food was very good. I had the beef brisket platter, which was super! The prices are very reasonable, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was good (it's a little hole-in-the-wall gem). I look forward to visiting again!

Well after all that driving and walking on Saturday, Tony Vanoy saw the sign for CJ BBQ in Spruce…read moreSprings so we decided to stop. The aroma was overwhelming when we arrived and entered the building, so glad we decided to eat here! It was 12:45pm and we were both starving! We decided to share a Platter and choose 3 meats & 2 sides...Pulled Pork, Ribs & Smoked Sausage with Onion Rings and Baked Beans with Hush Puppies and we both ordered Sweet Tea....the waitress gave us a free piece of a Apple pie they made fresh and just out of the oven. The food was great! Loved loved loved the pulled pork and baked beans. Highly recommend

Stopped in for dinner on a ln early fall Saturday evening. Upon arriving, we were immediately…read moreinformed that they would have live music inside that evening (due to rain earlier, it was moved inside) but if we wanted a quieter dinner we were welcome to choose a seat outside on the covered porch. I was impressed straight away by their attention to making sure we had the experience we wanted, whether that was listening to live music or having a quieter dinner. You order at the counter and are given a pager to let you know when to come back and pick up your food. So while there are no servers, we found the staff at the counter to be very helpful and attentive. All of our group ordered the pulled pork, which I found to be good. Their vinegar-based sauce (they have a couple of different options) I found to be good, though I would have preferred something a bit more on the acidic side. Sides were also quite good. The collard greens were particularly exceptional.

Most of us had beer, but a few of the ladies preferred beverages with vodka. For lunch, my wife selected the Pulled Pork Nachos. It was a very generous portion! While she enjoyed them, she couldn't eat it all. The rest of the ladies opted for the soup of the day. Several of the men (including me) opted for the Flounder platter. It was amazingly good. One gentleman sitting next me had the meatloaf special. It came with mashed potatoes and green beans. He also got hush puppies with his meal. He enjoyed it all! The service was a bit slower on this visit, but it was Saturday, and the place was busy. Be patient and your wait will be rewarded.

Even when this place is slammed with orders, which it often is, our orders are ALWAYS fresh & hot, and 100% accurate no matter which bizarre toppings we have decided on that particular day.
