During a visit to Tampa, I saw the smoke. I smelled the food. And I was hungry! I stopped into BJ's Alabama BBQ with hopes of consuming some "backyard" family bbq! They did not disappoint! Not only was the customer service over-the-top, but the food was hot, good amount and tasted great. If you're in the area and want a good BBQ spot without all the drama of a chain restaurant, I'd highly recommend you check out this spot. I'll definitely be back!
I have to say, what a find. Excellent food, great service. This place as been around for 3 decades, my only regret is I didn't find it sooner. I will for sure return. Thanks BJ's for the great real smoked BBQ.
I had visited here in July and let me tell y'all something, this is best barbacue I've had in a long while! I got myself a pork sandwich, corn on a cob, cornbread, and coleslaw, and everything tasted wonderful! The women here are also very friendly and lively! They really bring a lot of joy into the place! Go ahead and get yourself some good barbacue from here! 😋👍
In town and we heard about this place so, we decided to check it out. They did not disappoint! This family owned business served up some of the best ribs we’ve had in a long time. They were so tender and Smokey! Potato salad, collards and Mac were equally delicious as well. If you’re looking for some good bbq, this is it.
Our first visit and we were NOT disappointed!! A family owned business for decades, they treat everyone coming in like they're family. With simple, unpretentious surroundings, the bottom line is that the food is fresh, the prices fair, and the servings ample. You will NOT go away hungry! These are good people who deserve your business!! If you like BBQ the old fashioned way, make note of when they're open and check them out! As for my wife and I, we'll be back soon!
Best BBQ I've ever had! Do not pass this place up. The family that runs this 35+ year establishment welcomed us warmly and feed our stomachs and souls.
We got a little of all the meats, chicken, brisket, ribs, sausage and beef - all of it was amazing- the sauce is a tangy vinegar based gem.
For sides we got the slaw, beans and yams - usually not a huge sides person but they held up as delicious as the meat and I went for seconds.
Portions are huge and my husband can eat so that's saying something.
Eat here you will not be disappointed.
I went in today for the first time and told them it was my first time coming here and it was for take out for Michelle and this is the taste I was looking for! I ordered a full slab with half chicken all white meat, bbq beans and potato salad and it was amazing! I found my BBQ place and everyone was so nice and they shared with us their take over and hope they are making their grandparent proud. They are definitely making him proud 💜🦋
Having lived in both Alabama and Georgia for several years, I can honestly say that this is some of the best BBQ I’ve ever had. Staff were the ideal of true Southern hospitality, and unlike most places, the sides were incredible. We’ll be regulars here!
We were in town visiting from Jersey and came across this joint on the way to our Dinner 😂 We saw the smoke outside and made a sharp right! This place was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! Everything we ate was incredible- especially the potato salad! My daughter devoured the chicken and rice 😀 I wish I could give this family owned restaurant more than 5 stars! The customer service, hospitality and food was all 5+ stars!
First time here and already can’t wait to come back. The service was awesome- not only do they cook great food, they treat you like family. Large portions, variety and the price is very reasonable.
And my gosh does it smell amazing!! Can they make a wax melt that smells like their BBQ for my house?!?
