    two plates of ribs and sides
    Elijah G.

    Best Texas style BBQ in North Carolina. The brisket is incredibly juicy, the Cheerwine sausage is delicious and the dinosaur bone (beef rib) is one of the best pieces of meat I have ever seen. Get there early as they will sell out fast.

    I'm a patron! First visit was phenomenal and I can hardly wait to go again. My son recommended it and I am very pleased.

    I go to Austin, TX at least once a year for work and Jon G's is the best Texas-style BBQ I've had…read moreoutside of the lone star state (and the best kolaches I've had anywhere.) We arrived at 9:45 on a chilly, drizzly day and there were probably 50 people in line ahead of us. There was a friendly staff member monitoring and organizing the line and she told us we were there on a 'slow' day because of the weather. After the restaurant opened at 11, we waited in line for probably another 45 minutes until we got inside to order. The brisket was great, but the best things we had were the kolaches (stuffed breakfast rolls available before they open), Cheerwine hot link sausage, and fruit crisp. The Cheerwine sausage was the biggest surprise. It had a great flavor and wasn't sweet - I've never had anything like it before. When we get a chance to go back, we'll probably skip the pulled pork and mac & cheese. They were fine but there's a lot to try and these weren't anything special.

    I'm usually not one to rave about BBQ nor is it something I usually crave but Jon G's is…read moreabsolutely phenomenal. There's a good reason it sells out before they close almost every dang day. Known for its tender briskets, flavorful meats and flavor packed side dishes, Jon G's is my all time fav in terms of bbq and southern cuisine. My brother also places a Thanksgiving every order now ha.
