Best BBQ I gave ever had!!! The Brunswick stew is phenomenal (order the large you won't regret it!!!). A word of advice: Go early like 11:00AM, because they will run out of the favorites. You can call before 11:00AM, but they won't answer the phone after 11:00AM.

Maybe the best barbecue chicken ever. Sat on the porch while the sun set.

Stopped by for lunch today and had the pulled pork plate. The pork was very dry and seemed to not be very fresh. Huge portions, but the meat wasn't worth the ride. Hopefully it was just a bad day.

Smoked turkey and brisket are dried out and it was the first day of the week for them. It's only open 4 days. The original owners knew how to smoke the meat. The new owners don't.

We drove from Murphy looking for good barbeque. We stopped in Hiawassee and were told we have to go to Jim's. And make sure you try the banana pudding!!! We had driven by Jim's in the past, but they must've been closed. When we pulled up, the parking lot was packed. As soon as we walked in the door, a gentleman from Atlanta( he told us he drove all the way to Jim's from Atlanta) told us everything was great, but make sure you try the banana pudding. I had brisket , pork ribs, baked beans and banana pudding. My wife had brisket and sweet potato fries. I would say everything was off the charts delicious. The banana pudding, out of this world!!!! All of the staff were so kind, friendly and grateful we stopped in. I highly recommend Jim's, even if you're driving all the way from Murphy or Atlanta!!!!!
Sadly, nothing tastes the same. I easily would have given 5 stars a couple of years ago, but something has changed.

Catering: Jim's Smokin’ Que isn't just about BBQ; they can do anything imaginable. As a wedding planner, I've seen them deliver culinary excellence in various styles, from plated dinners to themed buffets. Their attention to detail and versatility make them a top choice for any wedding. I highly recommend Jim's Smokin’ Que to couples seeking exceptional catering for their special day.
A hidden gem! Menu is standard BBQ joint fare. The best in the area. Get there early, as they sometimes sell out. Food is good. Service is good. Sometimes a wait. Limited seating. Good vibe.

we haven’t been in a couple of years. Wow what happened? My favorite the Cole slaw was inedible,potato salad was terrible, fry’s were dry and cold. The brisket was sliced, we are used to it being shredded. I was practically in tears. Drove almost 3 hours chasing memories of such good food over the years . We will not be

I ordered a pulled pork plate. The pork was tender but not at all greasy. Fresh collard greens. The sauces were delicious and a wonderful surprise...house made yeast rolls. I can't wait to go back when I'm in the area and try the desserts. These people take pride in serving up good , fresh food.

The food is good but $30 for 1 bbq and 1 brisket sandwich is high. Period.
