Tophat BBQ in Blount Springs has always been my favorite. That being said, ownership has recently changed. We will see.

Classic burger and BBQ in Bessemer. When you ask for outside chop, you get outside chop.
Never been disappointed with any meal there.

Bob Sykes has probably been mentioned already. Gotta have a good credit score to eat there.

Full Moon tastes ok. Never get the order right.

Jim N Nicks is decent. Not my favorite.

Johnny Rays is decent, not as good since owners divorced.

Chuck we ordered our Christmas Party ribs from Bay BBQ on Florida street last year, and they were some count. Have you tried Meat Boss? I've heard some decent reviews, but they're always packed when i pass by. So i never stop lol...

That sounds absolutely horrible.


Agreed.


I'll throw a few thoughts of mine in.

Original Dreamland, back in the day, when Big Daddy Bishop sat and sweated over the pit, was some fine rib eating. Haven't been back there in a long time. The franchise location in Northport is the only one of the franchises that I have eaten at. They ought to be ashamed for even having the letters "BBQ" on the menu. That place is at the very bottom of the "worst" list in my opinion.

Had a buddy recommend BBG in Decatur one time. If he already didn't have a bad knee I'd kick him in his knee. Nothing special about it to me. Near the bottom of list.

I've had some good ribs from Sam's Smokehouse in Fayette. Occasionally, I eat at Thomas/Woodrow's BBQ in Northport, which is pretty decent. Chain restaurant BBQ for me that is okay would be Full Moon. I did say okay and not great. Renee Robertson fixes some pretty decent BBQ.

I've passed by the Jim's place on 82 many times and have thought about stopping there but never have. Are they open on weekends and at night?

I don't know if he's still around but there was an old black man that used to sale pulled pork sandwiches and ribs out back of 1048 Jazz Club in Old Cloverdale in Montgomery. I'm sure my B A C. contributed to my enjoyment of those sandwiches but other than the old Smokehouse in Millbrook hot pulled pork sandwich they were the best I've ever had.

Jims on 82 is open 9:30- 8:00. I'm only about 3 miles away, if any of you could let me know I would love to come have a BBQ.

I just checked. I'm 86 miles, one way, from Jim's. Little far of a drive just for BBQ but I will give it a try next time I'm down that way.

A little mayo, dill pickle, vinegar-based cole slaw and some hot pepper sauce.

Plain pork, I usually go with no sauce. Sammich, the works.

If all I wanted was just meat and bread I'd just eat the meat

Exactly. Now toast the bun and use it to sop the beans.

Quite aways. If you get off in Prattville it's probably 25/30 minutes west on 82, depending on Prattville traffic.

Tin Top ??? I believe is the name of the place in Calera. I hauled some cows to a man down that way.
