Dinner Jan 25
Been eating Jim N Nicks since 1995 in Birmingham. And frequent other ones in Charlotte area - which I absolutely love! For those not knowing, this is not "Lexington, NC" style BBQ, if you are looking for that - don't go. It's Alabama style (yes, there is a Alabama Style).
What you should know is they raise their own hogs. They make ALL sides in house. And all meat is smoked on premise.
I am chalking up my dining experience at this location to them being relatively new AND I WILL BE BACK!
BUT...............
It is my hope that they make sure they pay attention to the details and remember what has made this regional chain so so good for so so long!
Fresh/moist smoked meats - not dry/left over old cold meat (throw it out DONT serve it)
Fresh cut fries - not fries that are old and soggy (make fresh fries to order)
Chocolate Pie that is fresh - no scratch pie is GOOD after a few days (don't serve if it is no longer good & that doesn't get thrown away 1/4 eaten)
I truly hope the folks at the store do a reset - rededicate the cooks/wait staff to serving only the best product with the highest standards - do it right the 1st time as many consumers wont give you a 2nd time.
