I'm so glad I was able to try Timmy Jon's! If you are a BBQ fan, this spot is for you. I was able to try the pulled pork, brisket, and jalapeño & cheddar sausage all in my first visit as I shared food with my partner in crime. We had incredible service with our waitress even bringing out a sample of their armadillo eggs to try! And of course we had to order a palmetto bug to try bc it is the same thing but with pimento cheese instead of cream cheese. Both were spot on and I highly recommend trying if you've never had these BBQ delicacies! Also I was lucky enough to try the carrot cake and it is literally the best I've ever had! I will be back soon! read more

Pulled pork was great. The baked beans were a bit spicy and a little unexpected. The sides options, if you're a picky person, are not that great (I get it I'm picky and I eat like a toddler). For service, you order at the counter, they do bring your food to you, and you don't have to bus your table (I don't think)...I wasn't sure as I looked around for trash bins, so I asked the kind people at a nearby how to do that and they said that the restaurant does it. It was very very quick service which was great. Ambiance...It's clean, there's lots of parking, the servers are nice. The location is great. Exiting is a bit weird on the north of the building. If you're looking for old style (no pun intended - bare bones) traditional bbq with Cole slaw, baked beans, Mac and cheese, baked potato, cabbage/bacon, slices of plain bread, carrot cake, banana pudding, or ice cream, then you'll love it. Is it good, yes. Is it for me, eh, I don't think so. Will I give it another chance? Maybe, if someone I know loves it here, I will come with them. If it's just me, and given other choices in the area, probably not; I'm sorry. There just isn't enough choices for me to make it worth while, and that's okay; Timmy Jons BBQ is just...different and that makes it great. read more

I am a huge barbecue fan and was pleasantly surprised to find such amazingly authentic bbq while passing through Dade City on our way to Tampa. The brisket was by far the best I have had. Perfect texture and flavor from the nicely sliced, well portioned beef. I love the smokey hickory flavor on the ribs and pulled pork. It is well complimented by the seasoning. The armadillo eggs are something everyone needs to try! My wife had an insanely sized loaded baked potato that could easily feed 2 people. There is a wide variety of authentic Southern sides to complement the variety of delicious meats. The desserts looked awesome, but I couldn't dream of taking another bite after sampling all of this amazing food. I highly recommend stopping in Timmy Jon's BBQ. I can't imagine you wouldn't be a regular customer. read more

Timmy Jon's is AWESOME! The owner greeted us and was so knowledgable in smoking meats. This was our first time going. My husband had the ribs. I had a pulled pork sandwich. The sides were amazing! I cannot wait to go back and try the giant loaded bake potato with turkey. read more

Wow- what a treat it was to discover this place. There were 6 of us and the service was great. Lots of refilled drinks: half and half and good lemonade. Not one of us complained about the food. The sides were good : coleslaw, beans, fried cabbage, sweet potato casserole, corn casserole et. We ordered a Palmetto bug which is sausage stuffed with pimento and jalapeño. Excellent and different. Our main meals were one, two, or 3 meat choices. Juicy turkey, juicy brisket, pork ad sausage were our choices and all were good . They have carrot cake and banana pudding for dessert which is made in house. Restaurant and bathroom are very clean. 14810 US-98 bypass road Dade City. read more

We did a pick up order. The Brisket was super tough and chewy. The Pulled pork was "ok" and the Sauce they provide is bland/not great. It could have been a bad day but the meat was really dry and not remarkable at all. However; they redeemed themselves on their sides to make up for everything. Lots of options. Sweet potato casserole was excellent, same as the corn casserole. Mac and cheese was ok and beans ok. read more

Unbelievably awesome BBQ!!!! My husband is a huge fan of BBQ and is pretty picky. He wanted to try Timmy Johns after seeing them on the news. We were both super impressed!!! Amazing flavors; Great portions and the service was superb. We don't live close but we will be back for sure. Do your tastebuds a favor and stop by to try it! read more

Timmy Jon's BBQ catered an event in East Pasco County Thursday night August 28 for over 400 people. The quality of the barbecue brisket and turkey was amazing. Super flavor, deep smoke ring and served piping HOT. Mac-cheese was very good with a slight smoke flavor. Great fresh salad. I highly recommend them for your next catering event or even a solo lunch at their restaurant location in Dade city. read more

Great food and service. the brisket was delicious and the sides are sooo tasty. We will definitely be back.

Stopped here hungry after a long hike in the area. Both the food and service were excellent. Unfortunately, the restaurant had been "discovered" by a local reporter whose story aired the day before, so they were sold out of a couple of menu items. Would definitely recommend and return when I am in the area again. read more

Great place to take the family. The food was great and the Service was very attentive. We enjoyed the brisket and tasty sides.

It's always a hit or miss with this place. But I know brisket isn't supposed to be hard and gray. And I've been to Texas. That's not how they do it. The sides are pretty good. But the meat needs some TLC. read more

We stopped here on a whim looking for a lunch place in Sunday. We're really glad we stopped. I consider myself a BBQ snob, and this was the best BBQ I've had! The meats, sides, and deserts were all excellent. We'll definitely be back. read more

We saw a channel 13 TV spot on Timmy Johns BBQ, we have been looking for a local barbecue restaurant near Wesley Chapel for a long time. My wife and I visited Timmy Jon's barbecue for lunch yesterday, the brisket and sides were amazing; the brisket was seasoned perfectly and tender. My wife had the pulled pork that was equally cooked to perfection, she raved about the cabbage side tasting amazing. The restaurant was very clean, the service was outstanding! We will definitely be going back, as we have found our new favorite barbecue place near Wesley Chapel. We will recommend it to our family and friends! read more

We had Timmy Jon's BBQ catered for our Christmas Eve family gathering, and oh my it was so good. If I could give 10 stars I would! We had the ribs, brisket and pulled pork. The ribs fell right off the bone and were seasoned perfectly. The brisket was delicious and melted in my mouth. The pulled pork was the best I've ever had. The bbq sauce was so flavorful! I found myself even dunking my bread into the sauce. The customer service that we received from the owners was top notch. I can't wait to have Timmy Jon's BBQ again. Highly recommend! read more

Ii don't know where Jay H ate 4months ago but it wasn't at the place I ate last night. I've had BBQ in California, St Louis, Memphis, Virginia,and Texas and I can say without question that Timmy Jons BBQ is at least comparable to my favorites in any of those places. I'd say even better than my own. Hey Jay, go find your favorites now at Sonny's. I only rate them at a maximum of 3 stars anyway. Oh by the way, my wife had brisket and wouldn't even give me a little taste and she is not even a huge BBQ fan. Just not fair. Now I have to go get my own brisket. read more

This place is outstanding. Friendly staff and great beans and brisket. Try the homemade carrot cake, 5 stars.

Food was great, employees friendly & polite. Definitely going back again. I had pulled pork sandwich, husband had a humongous loaded baked potato. read more

The smoked turkey, jalapeno casserole, and fried cabbage were all fantastic. Come out and give this place a try. Locally owned and operated.

Everything we have tried has been awesome. Service is great and owners really care about customer experience.

This place is top notch. Real Texas bbq, done right with wood only. Turkey, ribs, brisket all fabulous!!! Everything is homemade.

We are never disappointed with Timmy Jon's food and wonderful employees And/or family there! Everything my husband and I have eaten there is Awesome! read more

Timmy Jon's BBQ - Visiting armadillo - Barbeque Near Me - Dade City, Florida

Holy cow how much salt do think you need on a Brisget and pulled pork? Super salty.. glad I didn't pay for it.

Second visit and we continue to be impressed! They had a wing special this week. They are fantastic! The brisket and turkey are incredible! Don't try the desserts or you won't be able to stop. The food is fantastic. Happy we stopped by again because the kids were asking nonstop. You won't be disappointed with anything you order! read more

First in reference to Jay who wrote a book complaining. You sir obviously know nothing about opening a new business. Their ribs are one of the best I have ever eaten. You sir are a Karen who wants to hurt businesses. I suggest you stay home and make your own bbq. Now for the sauce! I happen to love the sauce as the flavor is very tasty and has flavor. I have had the ribs, pulled pork, brisket, tacos, baked potato, baked beans, carrot cake and loved everything I ate. I have been there 6 times already and did a huge takeout for our film crew. When I go in I feel like family. Tim and Erin are humble people and I am glad I met them. They always welcome you and ask how the food is. One last note!! Jay you are entitled to your opinion but your opinion was way out of line. read more

Once the owner learns how to come up with a flavorful rub and allow the rub to impart unique flavor into his product, To cook his spare ribs so that their tender and the meat is not stuck to the bone that you'd have to get it off with a knife, the fat is actually melty juicy, there's some nice barbecue smoke and browning from being in the smoker LONGER and his ICE COLD BLAND WATERY tomatoey -sorry BBQ - sauce enhances the ribs. Why cold? The owner told me they keep it in the refrigerator overnight cause that's where they wanna store it even though barbecue sauce doesn't need any refrigeration. I had to tell them you never offer cold barbecue sauce. They ignored me and want to be unique and have only one sauce and no sweet, no hot, no Smokey choices. They haven't decided if they're going to because they think their ribs stand alone by themselves. This is a very obvious example of owners who don't understand the basics of a barbecue restaurant. The pulled pork tasted, because I have tasted it, pulled pork from a can. No smoke flavor and mushy. The brisket, dry and dry again, every bite. No flavor and their crappy barbecue sauce couldn't help. I actually had to resort to using their hot sauce. The coleslaw is so creamy and commercial tasting. It didn't go with anything. You can tell just by looking around at this new restaurant that the owners need to really understand the essentials of a successful restaurant. No one who focuses on quality serves Low quality, Walmart, diet iced tea in a bottle. That is the definition of focusing on buy cheap and hope the customer doesn't notice or we're clueless as to what the customer prefers. I would suggest going to Sonny's ( always my last choice for barbecue ) or an any other barbecue read more
