Jenkins Quality Barbecue - Southside offers the BEST homestyle BBQ with homemade sauce that perfectly complements their food. Located in an unassuming spot, it provides an authentic BBQ experience with super friendly staff. Their huge, well-smoked pork ribs with tangy mustard-based sauce are a messy but delicious treat. The menu also features BBQ chicken, fries, baked beans, and tater salad, all presented with great care. The fries are often praised as perfect, dipped in ketchup and BBQ sauce, and the presentation impresses many customers. However, some recent experiences have highlighted that not all dishes meet expectations; ribs served lukewarm or a little old have been disappointing, and some find the ribs distasteful. Despite this, Jenkins is known for its flavorful homemade sauces, which can offer a life-changing taste experience. Visitors often drive from afar specifically to enjoy Jenkins' BBQ, guided by a reputation for excellent service and delicious food. For those seeking a no-frills, quality, old-school BBQ with a friendly atmosphere, Jenkins remains a top choice.
