| - I recommend this place! I've eaten That BBQ Joint takeout twice now, and it was consistently good. On both occasions, I was picking up dinner for the family so tried a variety including ribs, chicken, rib tips, brisket, collared greens, chili, and their fries. Their smoked meats are great. I don't care for overly smoked meat, but BBQ Joint does it perfectly. I would agree with previous reviewers who said ribs/chicken are seasoned and flavorful enough sans sauce, especially the ribs. The chicken, however, was on the drier side, so really needed the sauce. Brisket by itself was a little dry, but I also know that we got the last of tonight's batch. Awesome flavor. The collared greens may be my favorite. So good! And I'm thankful there aren't pieces of pork fat in them.
On a related note, I have to say that I was disappointed with the chili. The flavor was good and loved the big beans, but it had too many very fatty pieces of meat throughout it. I tried to pick around them, but there really were too many, coupled with the fact that the fatty pieces were attached to the meat so just gave up. My chickens loved it though. :) I'm also wishing they had a crusty bread option, in lieu of the soft doughy rolls.
Everything seems to be house made, and made well!
