While in Villa Rica today, several of my colleagues insisted I try Evan's BBQ, speaking highly of…read moreits culinary reputation and gracious hospitality. I decided to drop in for lunch alongside my assistant, and I am thoroughly delighted that I did! The establishment offers wonderful versatility, featuring both inviting outdoor seating and a lovely, spotless interior. While I initially approached the modest setup with a touch of hesitation, any skepticism vanished the moment I crossed the threshold. The warm, comforting aroma of slow-cooked barbecue filled the air, setting an utterly delightful tone for our visit. The service was top-tier from start to finish. The owner, Alicia, is absolute perfection extraordinarily welcoming, warm, and attentive to every detail. For our meal, both my assistant and I selected the lemon pepper wings. Upon Alicia's expert recommendation, I also ordered a delightful, crisp beer to accompany my lunch. Within mere minutes, our order arrived. The wings were an absolute culinary triumph tender, exquisitely seasoned, and rich with vibrant flavor, while the beer proved to be a flawless pairing. Between the spotless environment, sublime cuisine, and Alicia's endearing, top-class hospitality, Evan's BBQ earns full marks from me. A thoroughly magnificent find I shall most certainly be returning

I'm not sure if I'm just lucky today after my past week of weird…read morecircumstances, but I actually landed excellent barbecue, in back-to-back visits of barbecue joints! For those of you who don't read my reviews, only about one in five barbecue joints I go to make the cut. The last one that didn't make the cut, was that fast food place Smokin Ds in St Augustine Florida. Anyhow, let's get to Big J's. I'm parked across the street, which I park at semi often, and throughout the years, and have only been next door at the vape shop in the strip mall. I think the other times I've came by they were closed, but they weren't closed today and I kind of expected them to be. I wanted to have supper here last night, but I had to go endure tragedy at the Mexican restaurant in the same row. I noticed they were open today, so I mosied it over about 1:00 p.m. The place is really clean, it's a family run outfit, and they are ALL SO nice. So I wanted a brisket plate, but the nice young gentleman behind the counter told me that it wasn't ready and it would be ready in an hour, so I came back at 2:00 p.m.. I ordered brisket, collards and green beans. Again if you don't follow me, you don't know my culinary history and that on the smoke pit, but this place was just about as good as my own. My collards were fabulous, green beans were off the chain, my brisket was hot, tender and moist. So good! They went above and beyond, the young gentleman at the counter asked me if I was a truck driver after placing my order, which I am an O/O, and I got something free or got a discount, not too sure what it was but I got something! That means a lot, we spend weeks and months away from our families to bring ungrateful people the things they want, so it's a little gestures like that that really makes a difference to us. Well they definitely have a lifetime customer. I just have to make sure when I pull here that they're open. But I'll definitely be back! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

We had the brisket -perfection ( my husband said it is BETTER than any he has had in Texas (traveled for business there for years), turkey (incredible!), and two sides: slaw and mac-n-cheese.

This is the best, creamiest, perfectly cheesy bit of Heaven you didn't know you were missing and now crave! They have a work ethic second to none. They are the perfect balance of personable and professional that all businesses strive to obtain. For now, their food truck has a loyal following and we are joining the fan club hoping they will one day have a brick and mortar restaurant.

This is not your hole in the wall where everything tastes the same. I've had a different dish every time and they all have a unique and robust flavor. Today I had the Szechuan chicken with steamed rice, curry veggie somozas, and a mango bubble tea. I have to order the little somozas every time because they are that delicious. The toppings in the tea are not sparse and it is almost a little meal itself. They came out from the kitchen to make sure I knew that the chicken was spicy and had peanuts. That was extremely thoughtful and it was perfectly spicy. I also enjoy that their "breaded" items have just a hint of breading. I loved every bite and am leaving full with a lot of left overs. I hope they continue to stay in business for a long time. They are such a little treasure here in west GA. I was told to try the green onion cake next time I come and that is exactly what I'm going to do because every recommendation so far has been spot on.

From the outside to the inside, it is a fairly classic countryside establishment that has a homey feel to it and a welcoming, yet confusing to outsiders atmosphere. All the classics are here: pulled pork, baked beans, fried okra, potato salad. Walking in, the couple resident guests who likely consider themselves part owners give the stare down, in the same fashion that they do for their cat when it drags in a rattlesnake into the house. Asking if the sauce comes on top or side of the pulled park, the waitress pleasantly informs that the chef does either depending on the day, thus going back to check what kind of mood they are in today. Yeah, it's that kind of a joint and there is nothing wrong with it. It is a different world than the city that's a mere half hour away. As far as the meal, the pulled pork is all-right. A bit dry, not particularly fresh, but standard mass produced pork. The okra is excellent. The potato salad is very vinegar centric, to a degree that made it a bit hard to actually finish, but could be of flavor for some. With all of that said, Jones BBQ is still a much better option than the fast food options in town and worth a stopover if passing through Temple. It's a simple place, with homey food and represents the place where it is.

We happened upon this little gem while checking out the Iced and Topped Bakery Shoppe in the same strip mall. Hubby and I had already eaten lunch; however, were interested in coming back so we walked over to check out his hours. Mr. Kelley graciously answered all of our questions and let us try his brisket, BBQ ribs and alligator sausage. These were on par with the best smoked meats we've had anywhere in the United States. You would usually only expect to find smoked meats this good at a few places in the Atlanta area and in Texas. The meats were tasty and tender with a great smoke flavor being present in a big way, something you don't find at most BBQ places these days. In addition to the aforementioned meats, he smokes rabbit, chicken, etc. The game meats he smokes varies occasionally depending upon what he has available to smoke. Mr. Kelley's BBQ Food Truck can be found in the mall most days, unless he is servicing a catering event (Wedding/Birthday/Business/Celebration.) BRING CASH as he doesn't have the means to facilitate paying with credit cards with inflation rampant these days. This is a "To-Go" setup. It's such a great location as you can get phenomenal smoked BBQ and delicious dessert next door all in one quick stop (along with a hair cut, if desired).
