Jenkins Quality Barbecue - Southside

Classic BBQ! Legend! The food was amazing, I haven't been here in about 10 years but it was still amazing!

The food was excellent. If you need a great deal on large pans of food for your family Reunion, please contact Mr. Brown. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Mr. Brown and we will definitely use your services again.

Immediately greeted with a smile and provided a rundown on the menu.

Let me preface and say the staff and service was excellent.

Ordered BBQ chicken, ribs, fries, baked beans and tater salad.

The presentation was number 1. Please see the attached photos.

The fries were PERFECT! Dipped jn ketchup and BBQ sauce - yummy! The chicken was pretty good - a little dry. The ribs were flat out distasteful. We had to toss them in the garbage because they were not edible (lukewarm, a day or two old). There is no excuse to serve food like this and because Jenkins knows how to do BBQ. I am going to have to hold to this. Caveat: I have been going to Jenkins since the late 80’s and so, I know things change. But there is an expectation for good food.

We drove from Orlando specifically to visit Jenkins and it was a bit disappointing. We will try another location the next go round.

To say Jenkins Quality Barbecue is "good" would be like saying art by DaVinci, Monét, or Rembrandt is "good". To consume the delicacies crafted by Jenkins, is to alter the trajectory of one's journey through life.

When Jenkins sauce caresses your taste buds, you will undergo an out-of-body experience. The flavor, the spices, the taste, the texture. Depending on if you go with sweet, mild, or hot sauce, each will bless you with a different transformative, dare I say life-changing event. There are only two periods of time by which my existence is measured: the time before tasting Jenkins Quality Barbecue, and the time after tasting it. If you've never had Jenkins Quaality Barbecue and their sauce, you've never truly lived.
