By all means, don't arrive at Tom Jenkins' dressed in your Sunday finest. This place is only for the serious barbecue connoisseur: The one who sucks the baby back bones so dry that he gets an occasional splinter in his lip and doesn't bother cleaning the sauce out from under his nails for days so he can savor the flavor. Don't be a pansy and order nothing more than a Diet Coke and salad. Live large!

Get a full rack of smoky, succulent ribs or a barbecued chicken you won't soon forget. Add more color to your Styrofoam takeout container with some chlorophyll-rich collard greens, golden macaroni and cheese, ruby-toned baked beans and a cornbread muffin to sop it all up. Come alone or bring a handful of friends. Either way, you'll feel comfortable sitting at this tiny place with picnic tables, amazing sweet potato pie and lots of personality.

    Where can you get chopped pork? We come from coral springs to eat there. No ones compares.

    this place rules from lunch to dinner to just hungry, atmosphere reprsents a old fashion omestyle BBQ like your back home in the south. This place wins any and all BBQ anywhere in the USA, the BBQ sauce is rediculous as well, i recomend half rack, fries, mac and cheese and of course a ole' rootbeer

  • The way BBQ should be...

    Review rating : 5out of 5   EDGOLDFARB - 06/12/2008

    As a native Floridian I've eaten at all the BBQ places from Ft. Lauderdale to Miami, and this the best...BAR NONE! Could be the best BBQ in Florida. Family style dining, generous portions...Big lunch crowd...so you know it's gotta be good.
