“Food is plentiful and delicious. Servers are really nice and bring the food to you quickly. If I could please make two suggestion: 1. Not sure how other customers feel, the heavy duty napkins are nice but we like the napkin dispenser on the table, that way we have the amount of napkins we need to keep our hands clean eating their nice big bar-b-cue sandwich?; 2. it also would help if you used a duplicate order pads (one copy at the cash register and one for the customer so the server can bring the check to the customer so they can see what they owe ahead of time and also makes the customer aware the servers shift might be ending ..r know the servers can see what they owe before they get to the register, it also would help the customer know the server’s shift is almost over. Unfortunately we missed giving our server her tip two times because B f“

“Loved everything about the place. Located in Historic Fredericksburg, VA. Little slice of smoked Heaven.“

“I was on a road trip out of town and was passing through and stopped for a quick bite to eat and it was a stop well spent! The staff was extremely friendly and the food came out very quickly! The pulled-pork was to die for and the mustard sauce with it is a hit combo! My favorite by far though was the smoked baked beans!! Please go out and try it if you have a chance!!“

“Six of us were at the Northern Neck Beach Music Festival in Colonial Beach on 9/10/2022. All of us had your barbeque sandwich and agreed how tender the port was and it had the best taste with the seasoning used for the cooking and it was delicious with or without the barbeque sauce. Looking forward to eating at you place and hope you will vendor again at the Northern Kneck Beach Festival for 2023. Thank you for being there.“

“I would give this place 5 stars if it wasn't for the staff. Half the time we go everything is great, but the other half we get a server who insists on cooking the meat for us. *Every time* the server handles meat it ends up over cooked or messed up.
I wouldn't mind them cooking if they did it correctly or even just asked how we wanted it cooked. However it ends up feeling like we're being rushed and micromanaged which is just not fun. Lastly, today our server told us that we can't salt the meat on the grill because it causes grease fires. Aside from that being incorrect, she kept putting the meat on the grill immediately so we didn't even get a chance to do that beforehand. I'm well aware that other people put sauce on the pans which you're not supposed to, and maybe she was confused about that.
Given the difference in service every time we go I guess there's some differing info on what they're supposed to do, but it's unclear which way is the right one.

As for the food, it's been improving which is nice considering it didn't start out bad at all. We'll definitely keep coming here but hopefully the management can get the servers on the same page in the future.“

“Absolutely wonderful food! I've always loved their ribs since I first tried them. But today I had a sample of their pulled pork and fell in love with it. I'm originally from Texas, and having tried their ribs and pulled pork, made me miss Texas. Absolutely amazing food, keep up the great work.“

“Tacos the way tacos are supposed to be. Walk into the market and look to the right of the registers. There’s a large seating area where you can dine in. Have a seat and be patient someone will come to take your order. Tacos were amazing and the pupasas were huge and handmade as they should be. Everyone needs to come here!“

“I was supposed to be going to Fahrenheit for Mother’s Day but my date accidentally made the reservations for the wrong date so we went to JB’s and I absolutely loved all of their food and atmosphere! the service was excellent too! We had the Greek salad and the Greek pizza and a Fredericksburg burger along with a couple beers and it was all so good!! I’m glad we didn’t go to Fahrenheit and we had the back patio where the rose bushes entertained us!“

“This is a MUST eat restaurant. It kind of looks like a hole in the wall joint and the food does not disappoint. I ordered the brisket plate with collard greens and fried okra for $15.99 and could only eat half of it. These are the best collard greens I've ever eaten. It took 5 forkfuls of 'oh my god' mouthwatering greens before I could pause long enough to eat the brisket. The brisket was tender, juicy, and exactly right. This place makes me happy to have moved here. Absolutely will return.“

“Great customer service and awesome food!“
