Having been disappointed with many BBQ locations, I was pleasantly surprised by Jones BBQ. I ate at the Crossroads (Bellevue) location and the ribs were moist and tasty. Their spicy BBQ sauce was delicious and the Sweet Potato Pie was really excellent, which is very hard for sweet potato pie! I ordered a combo and it cost about $20, but it was easily enough food for two people. The beans were delicious. Can't wait to try again to check out the collard greens.

And this is coming from a former Vegan. Jones' BBQ is perhaps the best place to eat BBQ in the city. At least, it's the most established, and the most well-known for authenticity and consistency. I myself love the beef brisket, the baked beans, and the cake, but I wouldn't turn down anything there. The only think to complain about is the high prices (worth it, though), the richness and sweetness of the meat (but it slows you down so you don't eat too too fast), and that sometimes it's slow at lunchtime. But who's in a hurry? I need a whole afternoon to enjoy all that FOOD!

I am in absolute agreement with Dan L here on the fabulous-ness that is Jones BBQ. This is truly a place to eat yourself into a BBQ frenzy and to enjoy the sated BBQ induced coma that follows. Not only does their BBQ have a consistent quality they also have excellent side dishes and desserts. I am personally a huge fan of the sweet potato pie. YUM!!!!! Here is a short list of the tasty offerings that we usually order when there... Pulled Pork ribs rib tips hot links half chicken coleslaw - very tasty! baked beans Many times we'll order a BBQ sandwich of some sort for lunch and then we'll order a combination order to go so we can munch on Jones all week long. It's great because during the day you'll be thinking about those leftovers in the fridge and it makes the end of the day worth it when you can get your fingers messy again munching down some ribs. Augh! I'm getting hungry just writing this review and thinking about the food at Jones!!!! There will be some that believe Dixie's BBQ is better but I really think it comes down to the type of BBQ sauce you like. My partner, Michael, is pretty much an afficianado of BBQ and can name off the styles of BBQ like some people do with fine wine. He would say that these folks are not like the Carolina vinegar based sauces like those at Dixie's (specifically like "The Man"). Plus, you don't get anything quite as hot as "The Man" at Jones although you do want to be careful as the days go by on their hottest version of BBQ sauce as it does get spicier over time. If you don't want any hot-ness in your BBQ stick with mild but if you want to tempt fate or start building your hot tolerance move on up to the medium. If you love the sauce you can also buy some to take home. I've got some at home along with the other 10 flavors we keep around for grilling and this is still my general favorite.

I love Jones. I hadn't been in a while and maybe I forgot. I went there last week and ate myself stupid. Really. It is as good as barbecue gets--in Seattle or anywhere. They have recently opened up a new location in the cool two blocks of Columbia City.
