Anyone going for the Chili special today, they're already sold out of them. Sucks I couldn't get one and try it today. Only reason I went today.

Best Brisket, this mouth ever tasted. I was trying to remember the name to tell a friend as they were driving through and seen I never left a review. Our visit was a few years ago, and we still talk about the food and how good it was. We live in Georgia and will definitely come back on our way back to

Jays has the best BBQ in town. No contest. They also really appreciate their customers. Highly recommend supporting them!Open for lunch four days a week. Itd be great if they'd add a few more days or extend the lunch hours til 3ish, but for now they close at 2. Lines are long and parking is limited. They have a small lot but its mostly street parking.Great atmosphere. It feels like you're at a friend's cool BBQ just hanging out. Lots of interesting decor and they do their best to keep the outdoor seating comfortable. Friendly staff. The flavors are fantastic, food tastes very fresh, and the portions are large which is why I dont find it pricey. Id say just right. Brisket is definitely the star of the show! Id guess it all starts with a good quality brisket. Not sure where they get theirs from, but its consistently good. Not too fatty and they season it well. Its smokey with just the right amount of salt. The ribs are a close runner up with lots of flavor as well, but are sometimes a bit dry or too sweet for me personally. Pig candy is excellent. The sausage is also good and never overdone. I usually go for mac, slaw, beans, or potato salad on the sides. Theyre all good. Nothing is spicy if youre concerned about spice. On the potato salad I prefer more dill flavor, but it is still very good. I just wish they served greens of some kind. I do like that they mix it up by frequently offering specials! Overall I absolutely love Jays.UPDATE: Went back today and got my FAVE the meat sweats but added queso... SO good! Jays is the BEST!Parking: Few spaces. Big crowd.
