I just happened to think about this place today. I would treat myself to JJ's once a month. Now that I've moved to Casa Grande, I really miss it. Yes when I make it to Phoenix I have to swing by there. Their combos with the various sides are like a busted drum ? YA CANT BEAT IT
I was so excited to try the BBQ brisket sandwich at the Foodieland event yesterday. It was, hands down, the WORST bbq brisket I've ever had. The portion of beef was pitiful - it was mostly a bun with a small amount of brisket on it. The brisket was all stringy and totally dry. It was actually inedible. I threw it out. Complete waste of money. Keep your $17.50 and spend it at a different vendor.

Called twice and they don’t even answer
A sanctuary for BBQ lovers is JJ's Louisiana BBQ. A delectable experience is created by the rich tastes and expertly smoked meats. The staff's pleasant service enhances the experience, and the menu's variety appeals to all palates. A must-go-to for barbecue aficionados looking for real Louisiana flavors in the metropolis. Strongly suggested.

The brisket, pulled pork, Mac n cheese, beans, corn bread and peach cobbler were all very tasty!
I can't say if I hate it or enjoy it because they were closed, and it look like they were permanently

I haven’t been to the restaurant so maybe it’s good but the food truck on the other hand, smoked chicken thighs were tough jerky, brisket was very dry and not even cut right and pulled pork was super dry, didn’t even have that good Smokey flavor only the taste of what I can only describe as dirty smoke mixed with lighter fluid. Spent $32 after tip and ended up throwing pretty much all of it away, Mac and cheese was ok but mostly mush and bland…. From someone that knows BBQ I was very disappointed
I'm not sure what happened to JJ's? The food and service used to be amazing but it has been a while since I've been here. The service was ok. The soda machine was out of ice and most of the soda options were out, the kool-aid tasted like sweetened tapwater and they were out of tartar sauce. They filled the ice machine and made tartar sauce though so that was appreciated. The chicken was dry, the macaroni and potato salad were both store-bought. The peach cobbler wasn't great. The mac and cheese wasn't good either. The catfish was absolutely delicious and the greens were good. Sadly, I don't think I'll be back.

It is difficult to give a locally owned restaurant, a 1-star review. However, these are our reasons. Came here today after being in the area. The restaurant was empty, which was odd, being that it is Saturday, 1230pm. Order 2 beef brisket sandwiches with 2 sides each, a canned soda and a water cup. The bill was $46 (20% tip included). Expensive lunch for 2. The meat came warm with cold center. The meat was not good by any stretch of imagination. Coleslaw was ok and the potato salad was pretty awful. Portions were also very small. Very bad experience on a consumer level. Only 1 tray was finished and the other was discarded.
I am a Foodie and I went to this place for the first time. The first thing that disturbed me is that they didn't have bbq chicken or turkey legs ready to go. So I got some pulled pork, a hot link sandwich and some sides. The order taker said the food came with bbq sauce. When I got home there was no bbq sauce. The pulled pork was dry. The hot link was small and on a hotdog bun we the no sauce. The sides were bland. The overall meal was not tasty and the service was poor!!

Don't get me wrong the food was good, Walmarts produce section is the best. As far as everything else, nah. Ordered the chicken sandwich dinner plate, asked to upgrade to a large drink. Ended up charging every single item separate for a total of $21. Chicken sandwich is served and uh what it was cut open chicken leg with the BONE STILL IN THERE! Won't be going back!
The rib tips tasted they were a few days old, they were dry and hard to chew. It was damn near beef jerky. It definitely was not fresh. I hate to be told when food is fresh, when that was nowhere near the case. Also I was trying to figure out why around the whole truck smelled like fresh meat was cooking, but the food was old tasting and hard. Too be honest I felt like I was scammed. Beans looked like they came out of can and wasn't even heated up. It was upsetting.
This was the worst food I’ve tasted in Arizona. My husband is from Louisiana and I’m from Chicago and we both put our thumbs down. The food taste old like it was cooked a couple of days ago. The brisket and ribs were dry, and gummy. They didn’t even have the side I wanted. But the sides where not cooked fresh. It just seem like they heated in the Microwave and served it
AWESOME BOMB FRESH HOT FOOD. My husband and I wanted to try something different and we had a mixture of taste. My husband wanted BBQ/Soul Food and I wanted Seafood/Soul Food so we said lets go to JJs Louisiana BBQ.... WOW We must say it was EXCELLENT. Very nice and clean restaurant. We loved the music as well...My husband had Brisket collard greens and mac N cheese. I had catfish collard greens and cole slaw Hush puppies. WOW. Its BOMB!!!!????????
If you want some good home cooking you gotta try their food! So good I love the fried catfish plate. Their brisket is amazing and their turkey legs are addictive!!
