He's the best! The food is soooo good and tasty. I highly recommend! Love the chicken and my husband the brisket. Also his macaroni and cabbage dish are to die for. I return often read more

One day, my wife surprised me with a takeout box of smoked brisket, smoked cabbage, and beans. I was amazed at how flavorful and moist every thing was. By far the best Caribbean food in Frederick, Maryland. Jules is a great guy that cares about his customers and the quality of food that he puts out. We keep on coming back for more and he never disappoints with the food he serves. This is one of my favorite places to get food in Maryland. Thank you, Jules. read more

This actually might be the best barbecue in the entire DMV. Extremely understated location, but the food was so freaking flavorful. The brisket and jerk chicken were fantastic. Also, the Caribbean rice was way better than expected. read more

Jules' Brisket rivals the best in Texas. I'm a Brisket snob and used to go all the way to DC at Hill Country. Ribs are great too. Only thing they lack are Shiner Bock and Cole slaw. read more

The food overall was burnt and tasteless (ribs were somewhat decent). The wings, cabbage and rice n peas were trashed after first bite. Nothing tasted authentic; and, I paid $29 for the platter :( read more

Always friendly and quick to serve -- and the BBQ and sides are very good. I usually order pulled pork with a side of their collards and a side of their cabbage/potato mix. Definitely worth a stop. Only downside is that sometimes they're out of some sides, but nevertheless you'll find something you like. read more

I visit Jules Caribbean quite often and the food is always great. I tried their wings and was blown away. They were juicy and not over cooked so you know I had to get them again. The ribs and brisket are the best. Basically, all Jules' meats are delicious. I have not had a bad meal since I started going to this place. The staff is very friendly and the service is great. read more

Jules has the best beef brisket around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!hands down!!!!!!!!!!!

It's worth the drive from DC solely to rip into a huge portion of the brisket - straight out of the smoker. This could be the best bbq I've had in northern Virginia. We didn't even plan on going to this venue - we just saw the giant smoker running at full blast while driving down the road and we HAD to stop. The second we were in line five other cars pulled off the highway but, thankfully, as you'll see in the attached photos - there was plenty and the price was fantastic. Cherry on the top of the whole experience was grabbing a homemade icy cold root beer from Paige's Pit stop to wash down the brisket that was literally pulled out of the smoker and sliced just for us. And authentic and top notch experience. read more

We found Jules Caribbean BBQ food truck on the highway near the Lidl in Ashburn. It was noon, we had just gone grocery shopping and we were starving. We spied Jules Caribbean BBQ food truck and did a u-turn to seek it out. What a great choice we made. We got a giant helping of smoked pork BBQ, mac & cheese, and cooked cabbage. This is Caribbean soul food at its best. Jules is a native of Aruba and makes really excellent food. You can get a huge plate /box for less than $10. Thanks, Jules! read more

Delicious, friendly and great place. Jules has put together a nice seating area that is now a huge success. Can't say enough about his BBQ and smoked Mac and cheese. read more

Very delicious food. They sold out of the brisket early and we hope to visit again to try it. The owner works alone and is very kind and customer service is excellent. My only drawback is the price, but everything is going up in price so it's expected. read more

A great friendly guy working hard to make sure we all have some good BBQ kissed with hickory, and boy is it. We had the brisket (juicy, tender, and succulent), pulled pork (no vinegar THANK YOU SIR), and some ribs (fall off the bone delicious), with his rice, Mac and cheese, and cabbage. His sides are as equally delicious. We had to sit in the car to eat. Not much sitting. But, we were very happy we stopped. Do yourself a favor and make a pit stop, you won't regret it. read more

Jules Caribbean BBQ - Brisket with a carb load of rice and Mac - Caribbean Near Me - Waterford, Virginia

I've had Dutch Caribbean BBQ before. This was not so good. The chicken was dry and skimpy. The sides were even less and flavorless. Very disappointing. read more

Amazing barbecue. Get there early because sides sell out. Had the pulled pork and brisket. Happy we have good BBQ in Waterford.

Jules is out at stone tower winery in leesburg today. Just had the ribs and chicken with collard greens. All great stuff. Went with no sauce because the smoke and seasoning alone was so good. Meat was tender and juicy. Paired well with our bottle of stone tower wind swept hill. read more

Food was over priced for the service, portion size, and overall taste. Customer services team seemed to have a poor view of their boss as they kept saying their boss will only allow for very small portions to be served (not usual with Caribbean restaurants) but when someone they know came in they gave them a good portioned plate. read more

Jule's is NOT closed. Give them a call to see where they are. Jule's was at Old 690 Brewery. Not wanting run-of-the-mill BBQ, we decided to check them out first by having a discussion with the girl working the order window. She said she was fairly new with Jule's (keep her!) and we should have gotten her name to give kudos directly (no, your dad did not send us ). It was because of her enthusiasm about the food and her descriptions of the "sides" that made us decide to give Jule's a try. Jule was there serving us personally, plucking the juicy smoked meats directly from the pit smoker, just for us. Jule's BBQ would certainly win at the Houston Rodeo's BBQ competition. We don't usually get BBQ in Virginia, as we frequently visit Houston and there is amazing BBQ in Texas. We will now plan on visiting Old 690 and plan to have a meal there if we know Jule's will be onsite serving up his specialties. I imagine the "Caribbean" in the title confuses some, but this is just really great smoked meats with sides that someone gave thought to, instead of plain beans out of a can, and a chunk if bread as fillers. Jule's makes a tasty mix of onion, carrots, potatoes, spices and more sautéed together. In addition, he has a homemade mac-n-cheese. The girl described this by explaining it is really yummy (not out of a box) and they add four cheeses to the creamy mixture. read more

What a treat this was!!! Tucked away on a corner in Front Royal is this amazing Caribbean BBQ spot. I was lucky to be in the passengers seat as my guy and I were driving through town. Otherwise don't know that I would have seen this place. This was their first Sunday open and boy were we lucky!!! When we walked in the smoker was cranking. Could smell amazing BBQ smoking away. We ordered the 1/2 rack rib combo with a side of mac and collards. A quarter of jerk chicken and a side of red beans and rice. We took it to go, but you could also eat in. On another note...the man in there warmed my heart. I want to say it was the owner but I'm not completely sure. He was in there by himself doing it all. With a smile and with a sense of confidence in the food he was serving. Some places you can just tell the food was made with love, this place nailed it. The Smokey flavor came through so well on both the chicken and the ribs. Ribs were falling off the bone and seasoned perfectly. The jerk chicken was amazing. Be prepared for some heat, because it is powerful jerk. Anyone reading this please give this place a try. I love local businesses who put their heart into it. Try it and then tell all your friends and tell them to tell their friends!!! #localfoodisawesome read more

We see Jules Caribbean BBQ at Paige's Pit Stop off of Route 9 all the time and always say we will stop. We finally did. I was a little disappointed that he wasn't cooking beef this past weekend as I love a good brisket! However, the pulled pork was excellent and the Full Rack was AMAZING! They were the best ribs I've ever had. The pulled pork was such a unique taste. I can't wait to take my dad here when he comes for a visit. Hopefully there will be short ribs and/or brisket next time! I only took some a star off because I felt like the pulled pork portions were too small and the sides are limited. The only one I liked was mac and cheese and it wasn't anything special. Anytime I'm in the mood for BBQ, I'll be hunting down Jules! read more

By far the best bbq anywhere close to northern Virginia. We had the pulled pork and ribs...just amazing! Sweet potato fries, red beans and rice and mac and cheese were fantastic! The nice lady working the counter and Jules were just so nice too! read more

Amazing. Came here for a late lunch. It was all sooo good. I had the jerk chicken and my hubby got the pulled pork and ribs. Everything was delicious, flavorful, and spicy! Just the way we love it! Jules was super friendly and awesome. Highly recommend this place and we'll definitely come back. read more

This place is absolutely AMAZING! If you're ever in the Skyline area, you need to stop by! I ordered a BBQ sandwich, mac n cheese, and red beans & rice. It was served piping hot, with a side of delicious BBQ sauce! My only regret...I should of ordered more to take home! Can't wait to go back, and try the ribs!!! read more

Amazing food. Came once with my sister for lunch. Sweet tea best I ever had!!! Mac and cheeese is on point. Sautéed cabbage was amazingly different too! Overall great food exceptional service. Came again today for a second round and after waiting about 15 minutes to get our order taken we had no choice but to leave because our lunch break was almost up. As we pull out of the parking lot Jule stopped us, told us to come back in and enjoy our meal on him. Amazing! Not only did we get the entree we ordered but he surprised us with a lemonade and a jerk chicken entree. Again amazing food and outstanding service. This guy truly cares about not only his food service and food but also his reputation. I have nothing but respect for this guy! What an amazing human! I will definitely be back. Might stop in just for a sweet tea. Ha read more

Awesome food! The place is very modest on the outside but trust me - eat there! We had both the hickory BBQ and jerk chicken. The jerk chicken is spicy but great as is the BBQ chicken which is sweet and great. We had four sides: sweet potato fries, mac and cheese, rice and beans and Cole slaw. They were all very good. I would definitely recommend Jules! read more

Yum...bought a pound of the pulled pork on my way home. Husband is an experienced smoker, but not in this weather. It met our criteria for excellence ...bits of crunchy, great texture and not too sweet/not to spicy. Reasonably priced. Jules, we will be back. read more

Fabulous jerk BBQ and awesome pulled pork. We've had BBQ from here to Texas and Jules' BBQ ranks up at the top of the best places. Simple put....if you try it, you'll love it and can't wait to go back. read more

We just got home from stopping here for lunch. Soooooo ridiculously good! I got the pulled pork and ribs platter. They both were amazing! The meat falls right off the bone with little effort. My boyfriend said the ribs were hands down the best he's ever ordered at a restaurant. I'd agree. The sides were great as well. I even got a free side, since he gave me the wrong side order which he corrected before even bringing the food out to us. Portions are huge and the price is reasonable. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly and provided quick service. We already plan on coming back and bringing others to try it! read more

Lunch time was pretty busy and everyone seemed pleased with their meal. I got the pulled pork sandwich which was great (the bun was really good!) with sweet potato fries.

I've had the BBQ from this place at a company meeting. It was very good. Last week I stopped in to see if they had jerked chicken. Boy do they!! The chicken was absolutely delicious. The seasoning thoroughly coated the chicken and he smokes it in the smoker outside. If had an all-you-can-eat with this, I would eat until I passed out. You don't want to miss out on some of this. read more

Just tried Jules today on the recommendation of a friend and really enjoyed it. Decor is very cheery and fun and the food is excellent. Tried the ribs and jerk chicken, cabbage, sweet potato fries and mac and cheese. The BBQ sauce in the ribs was excellent. Jerk chicken was adventurously spicy but still enjoyable. Would definitely recommend. They have take out as well. read more

Had the ribs, collard greens, and cabbage. Very very good, stop in and give this place a try. I'll be back for sure.

The food is great! We ate the ribs, jerk chicken, Mac and cheese, and fries and everything was great! They make fresh made lemonade and it's very very good. Highly recommend this place! read more

This modest little eatery overtoots its own horn on its website. The jerk chicken was the best of what we ordered, off-the-bone tender with some heat. The sides disappointed. There was a smoker outside the shop smoking. But the ribs tasted like Liquid Smoke, not real smoke. Overall: Not bad. Not great. Friendly server. read more

Upon entering into this establishment I notice the young man behind the counter already had his plastic gloves on. These gloves actually remained on his hands the entire interaction except when he had trouble grasping the single dollar bills for my change, I paid cash. Fortunately for me my sides and pulled pork we're all handled with spoons and tongs. I ordered pulled pork which was good with a nice smokey flavor. My two sides consisted of mac and cheese and collard greens, and they tasted average. My midday meal cost me $11.65. For this price I was expecting the sides to at least be better than lukewarm. Maybe the food is hotter when they are busier.? read more

I thought the BBQ ribs with sides of red beans and rice and cabbage slaw were all excellent! The owner is very friendly and his food tasted wonderful without tasting like anyone else's. The slaw had a nice tang and the red beans a great smoky flavor. I wouldn't call it inexpensive but I would say it's worth the price. I'll be having lunch here at least once a week. Try it, you'll be happy you did! read more

First and for most the food was only ok. Parts were cooked right others were over cooked and dry. The service was not the best. We got our order taken but there was not an order for drinks until our food was served and we had to ask for drinks. Also, there was no silverware given until asked for and when it was brought to us it was dirty like it had just been taken from the wash bin and never cleaned. Restaurant would be decent if there were more people working (only one worker serving everyone so orders take forever). Would not recommend to anyone. Needs a lot of improvements in service and cleanliness. read more
