Sam Jones BBQ

Came to Greenville as a visiting football fan and we sought out a good BBQ restaurant on Saturday for our pregame meal/lunch. We were not disappointed at all. While NC BBQ is different than Texas BBQ, we were all about the "pulled pork." The meat was flavorful and I had a blast alternating between the vinegar and sweet BBQ sauce. I had the Mac and cheese as my side and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What surprised me was my wife's choice of the coleslaw. I'm not much for creamy coleslaw so this vinegar-based coleslaw hit the spot for me as I regretted not ordering it myself. I wish I had ordered other meats but hey, next time we're in Greenville, I'm making sure we come back so I can order additional items. Finally, the staff was terrific even though we were in our ECU opponent gear and the overall restaurant atmosphere was friendly. As I said above, I look forward to our return trip to Greenville so we can visit Sam Jones BBQ again.

Excellent bbq. Super fast and friendly service. Loved the pulled pork and all the sauces

Great BBQ. Great lunch deals. The sauces (sweet BBQ and Carolina Vinegar) were fantastic. The pulled pork was tender & not dry. The collards were well cooked and had a great spice to them. Our food was brought to our table pretty quickly after ordering and the staff were always making sure we had everything we needed. I'm only taking off one star b/c the cornbread is definitely not the typical cornbread I am used to (it was so tough, we couldn't even break it apart to eat). Otherwise, it's a great option to the BBQ scene in Greenville!

They have very good BBQ. Service is very good and friendly. Beans are great!Nice twist on pulled pork with the crunchy bits in it.

In Greenville, there are eastern BBQ options. B's, Parkers, Sam Jones....... B's been on magazine and TV and very famous. Sam Jones is more comfortable in their seating and have more varieties. Get their samplers. so you can try bits of everything. I am not a BBQ experts but everything is good. If you think some items are lacking, there are multiple bbq sauce option to increase the flavors.

Some of the best BBQ money can buy. I've tried BBQ all over the state and beyond. This is the very best in my opinion that money can buy. The BBQ had that smoky taste which I love, tender, and very flavorful. I had beans with the cornbread and it was excellent also. The beans were cooked with red peppers which gave it the zesty taste. Service was excellent also as the waitress was friendly and gracious.

Okay folks, I think we have a winner here in terms of Carolina BBQ goes. I ordered the 3 Meat combo because I wanted to try a variety of their signature entree items and boy every single meat item did not disappoint. The meats were cooked to perfection with full flavors. The BBQ pork was super succulent and the meat from the ribs literally falls off the bone when you pick it up. The sweet hickory taste of the ribs were my favorite. The smoke turkey was super moist! Both the collard greens and the sweet slaws were prepared just right. Unfortunately, the cornbread was the only thing I didn't care too much for. It was bland, dry and didn't really taste like cornbread. Other than that I love the place. I'll be sure and hit this place up the next time I am in town.

Food is good. Can't go wrong with this place. Just stay away from the cornbread. Service is always great. I've never had an issue with anything except the cornbread

The food was fine overall, but we spent nearly $50 and got the smallest dessert plate size trays imaginable with a half cup of pulled pork, paper weight hard cornbread, and warm pimento cheese app. If you wanted BBQ that is a solid bang for your buck, don't come here. The staff was friendly, wasn't very clean but they at least tried to wipe down tables. Vinegar sauce was good but forgettable like Sam Jones BBQ will be in my book.

Drove 2 hours for this bbq and it did not disappoint. Friendly, fast and great atmosphere. The bbq was well worth the drive! Will return!
