| - J and J just recently opened in the Kensington Market area. They specialize in authentic Texas style barbecue. My mom and I were in Kensington this past Pedestrian Sunday and we decided to check this brand new place out. I've never tried Texas style BBQ before, so this review is based on someone who has very little experience with this cuisine.
The place is clean, but it's on the small-ish side. The walls are covered with a floral pattern, and there are literally no chairs, just tables. It's a standing only place, so be aware of that if you plan on coming.
My mom ordered the combo with beef brisket and mine was the combo with the sausage. Both were very good. Both came with pickles, onions, and white bread. We also got coleslaw and potato salad. The brisket was well cooked, and the sausage was crisp on the outside and soft/meaty on the inside.
Overall, it's worth coming if you have a craving for good ol' American bbq, and/or if you're walking around the area and want a full meal.
Hope this place does well, it's a cool addition to the neighbourhood :)
