Smokin' Mo's Bbq

First time here and I was really hoping I could give a better review, but unfortunately I can't. For starters, there's not even enough food for the price ($14 for a hamburger and fries? Yikes). I ordered the pork plate with fries and baked beans. I got less than a handful of fries. I was not even full when I finished my plate. The baked beans did not have a good taste. Like others have stated, it tasted like straight liquid smoke. Second, the service could have been better. I understand it gets busy on the weekends, but we were not even asked if we needed any ketchup, etc or if everything was okay until we were almost finished with our meal. I think we will just stick to Biguns. More food for a much better price.

So pleased to see this addition to Jasper. The food was very good, not what I expected from a GA BBQ restaurant but a pleasant surprise. You won't see the variety of sauces sitting on your table, you will receive a very well seasoned, sauced pulled pork that is delicious. The fries were not the standard frozen fare - they were large spiral cut fresh potatoes and the Cole slaw was equally as good. Quaint interior, nicely decorated, exceptionally clean with freindly service. Definitely a repeat for us!

There is definitely potential here. We had a party of 7, arriving about 7:30pm and were given a 15 minute wait time. It was definitely packed and from what we could see of the food it looked and smelled amazing. They had live music that was not bad but maybe a bit too loud for the space. Menu was straight to the point and that’s a plus in my opinion, less is more in a great menu. Three in our party ordered ribs and we were told shortly after that was not an option and had to change up the order a bit. It did take a bit longer than expected for the meal to arrive but once again new place and things take time to smooth out. I think overall we tried just about majority of what the menu had to offer. It was good for the most part honestly. It was lukewarm to cold though like it had been sitting a bit. There was an issue over ketchup as the party was only given ramekin of ketchup for the table. We were told it was the only bit left for the restaurant. My oldest literally saved the fries to take home and enjoy with ketchup. They were pretty dang good on their own personally. I had ordered potatoes salad and the cole slaw for my meal and found the slaw was not quiet to my taste so swapped out for fries. When the waitress brought them to the table we had just found out about the ketchup. Our little guy was super hungry and not dealing well with the texture or the other food but I was pretty sure my fries as he had one from another plate. I picked one up and started to give it to him and the waitress was like “STOP” they are very hot and just came out of the oven. I told her they were not hot (I literally had just picked one up with the intention of breaking in half and it was clear they were barely warm, to prove my point I put my hand on the entire entree). Honestly though they still were good despite being lukewarm. My brisket was good though a bit cold, a bit more fat than I was expecting but definitely filling. The hubby was unable to finish his brisket sandwich because he had a lot more fat than meat and the bun was soggy but he said what he had was good. Everyone pretty much agreed. It was not perfect but it definitely has potential and that why we will go again. Jasper needs more local good food. Yes they atmosphere was little too loud, the food not quite piping hot but it was good. That’s worth a try again.

I ordered the 4 meat sampler with 2 sides and was happily surprised by the size of the servings of ribs, chicken, pork, and brisket. Nothing skimpy. I ate plenty and enjoyed the rest for lunch the next day. All 4 meats were hot, tender, moist, smokey, and topped with a drizzle of Chip's tasty sauce. They hand-pull all of their meat, including their brisket, so you get plenty of bark with just enough fat left on the brisket to make your taste buds think they've died and gone to heaven. $24 for a 4 meat sampler with 2 sides is a couple of dollars less than you'd pay at some equally good places, a couple more than you'd pay at others. Given the quality and quantity I considered it a fair price and money well spent. You can get almost everything else on the menu for considerably less - except the full rack of ribs, which will come as no surprise to anyone who frequents barbecue restaurants. I’ve worked bbq competitions with a national championship team and I'm telling you I had a great meal at Mo’s!

I find it funny people keep ordering things that aren't on the menu then are disappointed. It is a small menu but they are growing and want to do it right. I usually just split the sampler platter with someone ($24) and it's easily 2 meals for each person. The pulled pork is always moist and delicious. Ribs fall off the bone, potato salad is some of the best I've had and I don't even like potato salad. I would only suggest that a plate of that size would come with toast as I was charged extra for that. They have a great staff and always have awesome music playing. Love this lil spot ❤️
