    Hairy tips and fries
    Vaughn J.

    6/30/2020 There was a piece of hair in my food about 10 months ago, I reached out to JD we came to a resolution and I changed my review. We've ordered from here several times since without issues but tonight upon opening my food and removing the bread there was another piece of hair found in my food. I again reached out to the owner however this time I wasn't looking for a resolution because I've decided this place is disgusting but I wanted to make him aware that more hair was found in his food. JD stated that he's unsure why he's completed thousands of orders yet I'm the only one who's found hair (twice now). He however was willing to reimburse me for the price of the food. I'm unsure why I'm the only one that has found hair as well but we've ordered from here a total of 6 times and of which there's been hair 2 times, I personally find that percentage to be unlikely that I'm in fact the only person who has located hair from this place. There is absolutely some disgustingness going on at this place. I am beyond furious this time because I understand maybe it happens once but this is the second time. No thank you...stop sharing your DNA with customers!!!! 7/1/2020 I awakened this morning to a message on here from someone who has one review which just happens to be of this restaurant. Pretty much stating that my picture appeared altered and my review has no validity. 1) I have no reason to lie about hair being in my food as I gain nothing. 2) I can pay for whatever it is I want. 3) I am as well a Black business owner and I have no reason to lie on another. Which is why I allowed the resolution the first time but hair twice, I'm sorry we cannot resolve that. This review stands! As per my other reviews I have never posted about hair found in my food before. Furthermore if she don't typically post reviews what made her post this one??? I can tell you why it's because it's one of his friends or family members. There's no way I'm the only one who has had hair in my food twice now from this place. Eat slowly when ordering from here you are nearly guaranteed to locate hair.

    Chicken Wings mild sauce!

    When I tell you that Joliet and the surrounding suburbs have a BBQ House that will satisfy your EVERY crave of some good Que IT'S HERE!! JD's BBQ is an awesome addition to Joliet! I almost ordered everything on the menu...the wings well seasoned and the sauce is the BOMB!! The tips were off the chain and VERY TENDER! You can tell when a GrillMaster/Smoker has perfected their craft and Rico certainly has!! Couldn't leave without a large hot link which was tasty and juicy NOT dried out sausage like so many spots overcook them I also bought two bottles of their sauce so I know I'll have my personal stock of it! We'll definitely be back and looking forward to have JD's cater soon...#Blessings

    Amazing BBQ! I ordered literally everything off the menu for my wife and I. The bbq sauce is homemade and unlike any other... flavorful, spicy, very different! all the meats are very tender, juicy, well made and smoky. I was able to taste the ribs with no sauce and I was falling off the bone tender and seasoned perfectly. We are definitely going back

    See all

    The Barbeque was not good. It tasted like liquid smoke was poured over my pork and turkey tips. The Turkey tips sauce was awful.

    JD's food is delicious. I had the chicken wings and the turkey tips and everything was amazing. It is definitely worth the trip!

    Matt's Barbecue - Porkbelly burnt ends

    Matt's Barbecue

    (115 reviews)

    $$

    Picked up a load of barbeque at Matt's on Saturday for the NFL\WWF Match between the Monsters of…read morethe Chicago Midway and the Packers of the Wisconsin Green Bay. Vegas money must have been on the Bears! I had not been to Matt's in a while and after Sunday's smorgasbord, I'll not repeat the mistake. We started off with Smoked Wings and Texas Twinkies (Bacon Wrapped-Brisket and Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos). Great flavor and heat! We also had some of the best Baby Back Ribs I have ever feasted upon. I smoke ribs weekly and these were honestly superb in every sense. The pulled pork was deployed for sandwiches for the little ones. All sauces and sides--shoutout to the PICKLES--were on point. Packaging was done with care for transport home. One of the workers even helped me out to the car with my food and tried to refuse a tip for the hand. I'll be more of a frequent flyer after this most recent visit. Great job to all the staff at Matt's!

    Love Matt's but lately I feel like things are off. Usually…read morecome here for the ribs which in my opinion are the best thing on the menu. Been coming here since before they had fries on the menu. Last 2 times I've gone they've been out of ribs so I've had to substitute. So I've gotten the burnt ends and a brisket slider. The brisket is decent. Very tender. With the honey sauce it's quite good. The first time I got the burnt ends they were a little fatty to be expected but honestly delicious. But this most recent time I got them I'm talking almost 80% fat. I had a huge chunk of nothing but fat no meat to be seen. I was so unsatisfied I came here to write this review. I also don't like the 1 refill with my sodas before they start charging me for refills Matt's is one of the 3 good spots in the walkable area with barrel and vine and the Mexican spot being the other 2 good spots. Hoping the next time I can update this review for the better but highly disappointed tonight.
