The burgers are made fresh and have some really unique topping combinations, so there are plenty of options if you want something besides a basic cheeseburger. Service has always been fast when we've been, and the atmosphere is very casual and laid-back.

Help yourself to the cooler of beers or drafts. We never leave without buying a bottle of their jerky sauce, sweet with a little spicy. We plan our travels to make sure that we make to Neon Pig whenever possible.

I ordered the rib tips simply because you don't see them a lot. I also got the fried green tomatoes and the sweet potato casserole that was highly recommended by the staff. As I waited for my food I had a pleasant conversation with another diner, everyone was very welcoming. The restaurant is cozy and comfortable enough to enjoy your meal inside but I got my food to go. The rib tips were almost overcooked, not as tender as I'm used to but still good. The fried tomatoes were fried perfectly and needed a touch of salt at the end. I would return and try the brisket on the next visit.

Bar-B-Q By Jim, Tupelo - 5 Stars I am not one to give a…read more5-star rating easily. There needs to be something unique about an establishment before I will shine that last star on a review and in the case of Bar-B-Q By Jim that uniqueness is the owner's and staff. Once I strolled through the door, I was met by Jim himself with his big size and personality. Coming from the New York City area I always heard of southern hospitality but never understood it until I met Jim. After being greeted by Jim I asked what he would suggest. His response was "everything". Well since that would be impossible, I decided to take a glimpse of the menu. Grilled Sausage & Peppers, Fried Catfish, Pulled Pork, Country Fried Steak, and it went on and on. So, like every yank I picked what I trusted most and settled on a rack of ribs with a side of baked beans and a side of potato salad with Jim's own home-made sweet tea. While sitting waiting for the food this northerner was able to observe the customers and how they all interacted with not only Jim and his wife Barbara but themselves. This place is truly a family-owned operation and everyone I noticed is treated like loved ones. After waiting with anticipation for my ribs Barbara delivered the ribs herself along with a foreign vegetable which I came to learn was fried okra. The visuals of the food along with the aroma of the barbeque sauce was mind blowing. I never experienced ribs like Jim's ribs. I didn't want to wash my hands after I completed my meal. I just wanted to suck on my fingers till there was no more evidence that I devoured the ribs except the naked bones. Now every time I return to Tupelo, I make it a point to visit Bar-B-Q By Jim and expand my horizons while exploring southern barbeque cuisine. PJ

The restaurant decor is pretty typical of any southern small town eatery with deer heads, flags, a few family pics and of course Elvis has to make an appearance every where in Tupelo, MS. I ordered a half slab with sweet potato fries, slaw, potato salad and they gave me some regular fries. The ribs were not as tender as I had hoped for and the sides were ok. I would definitely revisit them for the lunch special, maybe not for the ribs.

We were headed back from AR from a graduation and while staying in Tupelo found this restaurant close to our hotel. Not from being around the area weren't real sure about it but only because we were not seeing a lot of food items we liked. However because it was close by our hotel and the star rating was high, we decided to try it out. Oh my gosh; I am so glad we did. Even months ago enjoying our food to now, I can still remember how amazingly tasty our food was. My hubby and I shared the Dirty Grains with greens and things. We both have never had greens in our lives, but our server told us they were very scrumptious at the Blue Canoe. She was spot on!! They were delicious, really the entire meal was DELISH!! I am so glad we shared the dish because it was a lot and very filling. Now the restaurants famous sauce that is made fresh every day is worth its weight in gold. Our server has been there a very long time and she said she is the gal who makes it daily. I can't really explain the taste but it is very, very tasty. We were so full and it as going to pass on dessert. Of course our server told us about their dessert that is #1 on the menu...Connie's Blueberry Doughnut Bread Pudding (pictured). Once again super scrumptious and worth every calorie. If you are new to the area I highly recommend a trip to the Blue Canoe. It doesn't look like much outside and inside it can seem like a dive. It isn't because it's been around d a while and the ambiance is really cool!! The parking lot gets quite full and was just a bit challenging to maneuver our large 250 GMC truck but we managed. This place is a gem and well worth our visits when we are traveling through. I'd love to go when they have live music but not sure when we will be driving through.
