We ordered a 2 meat plate with brisket and rib tips. We both had potato salad as sides but one had baked (ranch style) beans the other had mac n cheese. The rib tips were very flavorful tender but hard to chew because of the over charred crust on the outside. Once you can get past that; GREAT!! If you like eating gristle you can forget it unless you like it like jelly. The best part of the ribs to me is crunching on the gristle. Brisket was AWESOME. NO complaints at ALL. Nice smokey flavor. Kinda light on seasonings. The rings in the meat from the smoker were pretty red and pink in color. The lines in the meat were visible when sliced. The ONLY one thing I didn't care for was none of the meat was cooked in BBQ sauce. Other than that the brisket was IMPECCABLE!! Potato salad is ok. Kinda reminds me of store bought. Didn't see any eggs and had ABSOLUTELY no pepper. Baked beans hmmmm well they were ranch style beans in my opinion. Baked beans are creamy and sweet. Ranch style beans are more like chilli; spicy and thick. Although they were delicious flavorful but just a lil heavy on the salt and reminded me of Texas style ranch beans I was disappointed because my expectation was different. I expected sweet baked beans and was served ranch beans. Mac n cheese was dry and NOT cheesy. I believe with some adjustments and consistency this place would do GREAT!!

I wouldn't recommend ordering from this establishment at all the food was really dry and in extremely low quantitie I ordered a slab of ribs and got two tiny ribs that where beyond dry corn on the cob that when it got to me cold and obviously had been sitting out for a bit a hot link that was the size of a small hotdog cut in half and a bbq sauce that tasted so horrible it made us gag i don't know how this place has a 4 star rating but obviously something's wrong here or we had some very lazy cook out our food together EDIT: First off sir I ordered a "Two" meat meal for me and my son at $16 a piece and in your description on Seamless it stated the ribs as a "slab of ribs" a slab of ribs is not "Two" individual small ribs and a hot link the size of a tiny hotdog and second off Sir the mac and cheese was dry and disgusting the corn was wrinkled like it was sitting under a heat lamp rather than being fresh and don't even get me started on the fact that my sons ribs and hot link where partly burned oh and I will have a great night cause in the end I got my money refunded via seamless and I got to eat some KFC which was far better than your food p.s does this look appetizing? What a joke.

Average at best. Maybe it was an off day, but it was very bland and the food was mediocre overall. Maybe I was expecting too much being that "Louisiana" was in the name. I was hoping for some BBQ that really jumped out at me. I got the rib tips, brisket, tater salad, and corn bread. The meat seemed more like it was cooked in a sous vide with very little spices than it was smoked over an open flame. The inside was very clean and open. Staff was friendly. It was nice that the condiments were placed on every table. You can tell the tables were not professionally made, but that was exactly what I liked about. It gives it a very nice home grown feel. I will be returning just to see if it was an off day. Nobody is perfect and small businesses need at least a second chance.

Just moved to the area and was craving some BBQ so of course I checked Google maps to see what's poppin close to home. JJ's came up so I had to go visit. The place it self overall is nice. Great customer service! The young lady was pleasant! The food itself was ok, the thing I liked most was the Mac and cheese. The baked beans were very different than what I'm use to, it had more of a chilli consistency and taste, the type you'd put on a hot dog. So that throw my taste buds wayyyy off. I felt the pork and ribs were lacking flavor, but that's just my opinion. I have 3 star due to the customer service and the Gospel music playing in the background. I'm use to different type of BBQ so this place didn't cut it for me.
