Suggest they move it near the front door so people know whether they are open or not. They need to print a menu and have the condiments near the drink station .

It's hard to tell from the pics and usually single patty burgers are so thin but I'm glad I ordered the single patty option instead of the double one because the patty was thick and was what one would make at home for a cookout. Plenty of burger for me. The fries are hand cut in store from potatoes on demand. No frozen premade burgers or fries. Read an article about this place being run by the man who used to run it when it was a back yard burger. Apparently he's a long time Benton native and his dad opened the Wendy's that is on military then they went with BYB and now he's running the BYB as Moodys. So don't sleep on this place. I like knowing I am Supporting small business and can stand behind the fresher, more natural food options too. I didn't take a pic of the chicken sandwich my teen got but she said it was better than most she's tried. Actual real chicken breast meat not the breaded processed fake chicken patty a lot of places offer.

The interior has a unique layout as if this wasn't the original function of this venue, but they make good use of the space. They have a pretty expansive menu for a "greasy spoon" style truck stop, with all day breakfast and some specials. The okra was overcooked. The chicken and dressing was mostly dressing. And the cornbread was as dry as a new sponge. However, the hull peas and the burger were well made and seasoned. We split the coconut special cake as an Easter treat with the special. It was sooooo sweet. The topping was as if I was eating a coconut peep. I don't think I would stop at JJ's again unless, like today, my options were limited. Nothing was bad, I guess I wanted something more.

The best barbecue hands-down I've had in Arkansas, and we've had a lot of it! The most hilarious…read morething is, Tim, the owner, specializes in Texas style brisket. Stopped in for lunch the other day and had the macaroni and cheese topped with chopped brisket and asked them to put the sauce on the side because most places just drown their meat in sauce and you can't even taste the beef. There's usually reason they don't want you to taste it. But Tim is VERY talented on that smoker! He was wonderful and honored my request without batting an eye (some chefs get offended). The staff and Tim both chatted with me in between customers and there was a good clip of folks in and out picking up food and raving about it as was I. The sauce is homemade and a family recipe and of course he's serving his grandma's macaroni and cheese, which is different from how I make mine, but it was still really delicious. The best part are the prices - so reasonable I t's not even funny, and I left absolutely stuffed to the brim. Be sure and try their fried pies too, I got a cherry pie to go and it was yummy! I'll drive all the way from Diamondhead on the regular anytime I want brisket because it was just that good. I would've taken photos, but I am held my lunch before I thought to do so. Sounds like a good excuse to go back to Tim's Tavern ;-)

The other BBQ place we went to was out of brisket, so we followed the path to Tim's Tavern BBQ…read more When you drive up it looks like a dive bar with a fabulous covered patio. ***Warning: Results may vary*** There are no accidents. We were meant to experience TT BBQ. Let me just share that this was an experience. We walk in and there are diner style dinner tables with 2 families filling up many spaces, a date night couple and a lone diner. There is a small bar with stools and a special spot for "Mr Murray". (Reminded me of Norm from CHEERS. Mr Murray was not there) I loved that the TV's were off... otherwise I don't think it would have happened the way it did. The server was welcoming and friendly just like a family member you hadn't seen in a while. She answered our questions and was hustling between taking out HOT food to patrons and giving us the scoop on the menu. (Only server there and she kept up with all of us)! We decided on Beef Brisket and Jalapeño Cheese Sausage with 2 sides. Excellent choices, brisket was lean and tender, jalapeño sausage did not disappoint. Bbq sauce was tangy. Our sides were simple and flavorful. We were so hungry, we forgot to take a photo before we dove in. We were talking with the staff and other guests enjoying their meal. One suggested the Banana pudding for dessert and they were correct, it was soooo good. (Later learned it was made by our server, Sarah. Heart Emoji. It felt like grandma's kitchen and the family was gathered and sharing a meal. No strangers. Several take out orders came and went. Tim opened this place 2 years ago to bring good BBQ to the smaller local scene of Benton. (Plus downtown Little Rock is no longer a desirable destination). It may be off the beaten path but so worth the extra couple miles. Had a nostalgic moment when I saw the Horse Ride. OMGoodness so fun, how many times I would beg my daddy to let me ride one of those anytime I saw one. Now I am too big, but loved the memory. There is a great big outdoor patio covered over have where they have live music and events. The look out on over green grass lawn and forest is beautiful. This place is a "Hole in the wall" type but excellent in all areas. Service 5-Stars Food 5-Stars We stayed much longer due to great conversations with the other guests and family feeling. Hopefully you experience the same. Oh, did I tell you we were just visiting? :)
