However, the cup was so packed with ice that there wasn't enough water to dilute the tea I bought and it ended up tasting really tart. I would give this place another shot, I'll just ask for less ice if I go again.

They offer gas as well and their bathrooms are really clean. Service was nice to those who I encountered and noticed there's a little eating area which is so nice instead of grabbing a table outside or eating in your car in this Texas heat. This is a great staple here in Portland and excited to see what else the Texan has to offer in the future.

They very much hold up on their own without the sauce but the sauce is very tasty and not exactly overpowering. It just adds a delectable light layer to the meats. And I have to tell you I normally do not like potato salad from barbecue joints because it is an afterthought for most places. However here at Smokin' J's they really did put some thought into the layers of the potato salad. It is very good, it's not overdone, it's just simple. It has its own clear voice in the mix which is kind of hard to do when you're dealing with barbecue. The beans are very good as well and I love that they use vegetables in the beans such as onions and tomatoes. Also there coleslaw is amazing. It's light it's refreshing and crisp. I can see having a sandwich on sourdough with just some marbled brisket and coleslaw on a toasted sourdough bread. That sounds really good. And with all these plates that I bought I will have dinner for the next two or three days which is fine by me because that means I don't have to cook! The building is pretty old, it used to be Comanche Cafe and then Garrett's barbecue and now we have Smokin' J's and I believe it is a great evolution for this building. You seriously need to try this barbecue joint.

Not that I've heard anything bad about the gas, I just don't buy it here. They carry snacks and things, and you can tell that some are right out of multipacks from maybe Sam's Club or Walmart because they're not labelled for individual sale. LOL I get a kick out of it. Expensive though like any convenience store. Really, really nice people working there though. Sometimes Curly's Food Truck parks here. I watch their FB page to see when they are there.

Do NOT come here if you want retail ice cream. I'm not even sure why yelp lists this place. It's a parking lot for ice cream trucks that takes you way off the beaten path. Not worth your time. A locked parking lot, by the way, without a live vendor in sight. Strong avoid, until they invest in a storefront.
