Pie slices sit atop the counter. But you won't need any if you choose the cornbread, because it basically counts as pound cake.

The service here was really great. They allowed us to sample the sausage and it had a lot of flavor. I ordered the three meat platter with turkey, ribs, and brisket. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tender. I loved that the brisket wasn't too fatty and that the ends was perfectly caramelized. The turkey was so moist; I'm not sure I've had moister turkey before. The ribs were magnificent and again not too fatty. I got greens and a cucumbers for a side and they were also both perfectly seasoned and flavorful. Definitely got a huge portion. I was very very happy with our meal. And we were able to get our food quickly and we didn't have any trouble finding seating.

Nashville BBQ! My first taste if Nashville BBQ did not disappoint. I went ala Carter and had 4 oz each of their sausage and brisket. Two sudes: collards and mashed potatoes, filled out my order, along with unsweetened tea. I know, I know, that's a no-no down South, but hey, you gotta watch your carb intake.How were their meats? Juicy, smoky, and tender, just as I expected. Tasted like they use hickory or oak, but I failed to ask. The collards had a spicy twist to them, and the potatoes were creamy.We chose the location just outside of the city, and parking was ample.

This is my favorite bbq in Nashville and really anywhere. It is consistently good. They have several bbq sauces to choose from. My favorite is the pulled pork and the chocolate fudge pie for dessert. We always make sure to grab some pie to bring back home to Illinois. Highly recommend you won't be disappointed.

Top tier Bbq joint. This was our first meal after touching down in Nashville and it truly delivered on the value. We got seated fast and for the price it was delicious. The brisket was so tender and the ribs were falling off the bone. Mac and cheese and macaroni salad were good too. Ambiance was quintessential southern BBQ. It somewhat reminded me of Texas BBQ. Comparing it to North Carolina BBQ it was interesting because it had more of a tangy flavor which I tended to prefer. I'd def come here again!

Stopped in town and was looking for a bar-b-que spot and found Jack's. It's a serve-at-the-front and sit-down type of atmosphere, which I love because you get to see the meat and sides in front of you. The service was great, extremely helpful, and steered us in the right direction when it came to getting a little bit of everything without breaking the bank.Got the two meats, wet brisket and sausage, and a 1/4 of pulled pork. I could have done without the sausage, as it wasn't anything spectacular, and gone with more brisket (wow!!!) and pulled pork. The brisket had a charred outside but was exceptionally moist and tender inside. The pulled pork was also incredible. For the sides, we got mac and cheese, which lacked in flavor a bit, and their mashed potatoes and gravy, which hit a home run. I wasn't a fan of their cornbread, it was a bit dense and tasted more like a cake consistency. I also had a bit of my MIL half chicken, smokey and juicy. Overall, glad we stopped by and would definitely come back.

Jack's on Charlotte has become our go-to barbecue spot because the food is always so good. This restaurant does a great job delivering well cooked barbecue flavor in all its meats, and I've tried them all. The pork, brisket, and turkey are always moist. The ribs are meaty and the smoked sausage is super juicy. Please be aware that the chicken is moist and tasty but it is served on the bone, not pulled. Their Brunswick Stew is the best side dish in Nashville. I'll often order a pint as my entree with some of their delicious corn bread and some of their awesome vinegar slaw. They have a large variety of tasty sauces and a great dessert selection with several pies and some delicious banana pudding. The staff are friendly and helpful. Takeout is easy whether you order ahead or drive through. There are lots of cool pictures and decorations on the walls and they have a solid beer selection.

As soon as we walked in we were greeted, and asked what we would like. We said that we needed a moment because it was our first time and he was so kind and patient while we decided. We ordered the three meats: sausage links, fall off the bone ribs, and (marbled) brisket. Our sides were Mac and cheese, greens, and green beans. We ordered the corn bread and toast. I did not even ask for bbq sauce and that is how good it was. Y'all I am in no way a meat lover and I devoured this food. I normally rarely finish the meat on my plate and I went back for seconds. The ribs were amazing and fell off the bone, so yummy. The cornbread was so tasty and the toast was toasted just right. The greens and green beans were seasoned to perfection. The Mac and cheese was ok. The marbled brisket was to die for - I definitely love this place! I would definitely come here over and over again!!!! Oh, and it was so good and so appetizing to my eyes that I got no pictures, so that means you should go in and try it! :)

I ordered the ribs & brisket, with potato salad, cucumber salad & corn bread! The ribs were so tender and full of flavor and the cucumber salad was so light and refreshing with a unique zing. The sauces were super low but the ladies behind the counter saw and offered to help out. Service was great and the dinning area was clean.
