The best oak smoked pulled pork I've ever had. Their sauce is also very good, is both thinner and different than anything I've had before, and they make it themselves.
Jimbo's began in Lakeland in 1964 and has been at the same location in Tampa since 1970...yet the owner Janelda is on-premise and very hands on. She doesn't sit on her high throne and lord over the staff like so many other successful restaurant owners do...and I appreciate that.
Janelda is to the left in the picture, with Andrea, one of the servers. The large chopped pork sandwich I had is shown in the other picture, and it comes with a hush puppy and a small sample of their coleslaw.

Living in St Petersburg, but working in Tampa, only gives me an opportunity to try new places during lunch time. And my lunch trip here was well worth to time. Good size portions of everything. Homemade taste for the sides. Their own hush puppies and I had the ribs. Personally, I like the smoke taste. First time I try new BBQ, I skip the sauce on the first part and this time it was just right. Not too heavy or light. I did try some sauce on another rib, and the smoke worked well with the sauce too. The ribs were meaty and overall the whole meal was just right. Plenty of seating, good parking, and great servers rounded out the trip. Enjoy!

I checked the website that said join us new years eve 11-9 and after driving there from St Pete the sign at the door said close at 5. I totally understand closing early except when your website says come celebrate until 9
Definitely recommend coming here for lunch or dinner! Food and service was great. The pickles were fantastic if you like pickles like i do and to wash it down with Some good old southern style sweet tea.
