  • I ended up at That BBQ Joint (TBJ) by happenstance after my efforts to visit the newly opened A-OK Coffee location on East Washington Avenue were foiled by my inability to find a parking space. But my luck was not all bad that day as both the food and service at TBJ exceeded my expectations. There is a definite black and white theme to the restaurant interior. The interior walls have a fresh coat of institutional white paint, with black trim around the doors and windows. The menus are written on whiteboards with black ink and the food comes on a black & white checkerboard patterned paper liner. The large front windows allow for waves of natural light to stream into the interior and allow diners keep tabs on the action taking place on Willy Street. While the building has seen better days, the new occupants have cleaned it up nicely. Since TBJ does not have waiter service, I had limited interaction with the staff. Nonetheless, all the staff members I interacted with were courteous, polite and helpful. As a first time visitor, my order taker offered helpful suggestions when I mentioned I was visiting for the first time. He also checked in to see what I thought of my sandwich which doesn't always happen at counter service restaurants. Throughout my time at TBJ, this employee was constantly tidying out the dining area and checking the condiment supply levels when there was a break in the somewhat steady flow of lunch time customers. I elected to go with the Thursday special, the TBJ Cubano sandwich (pulled pork, ham, mustard, pickles and a pressed, well-buttered French roll). Mad props to the kitchen for their fantastic griddle work on the French roll as every bite yielded a satisfying crunch. The pulled pork component provided plenty of porky deliciousness. The Achilles heel of the sandwich was the ocean of generic yellow mustard slathered onto the sandwich. With a little better balance, this could be a top echelon sandwich in town with an amazing stable of sandwich offerings. Bonus content: TBJ sells bottles of their sauce for $8. After this positive first impression, a return visit to TBJ is certainly in my future. The wonderful aroma of smoked meats wafting through the restaurant during my first visit has me eager to try there more traditional BBQ offerings of smoked brisket, ribs, pulled pork and smoked chicken.
