J R’s Rib Shack

Outside tells the story. A run down has been. Food was subpar. Pork dried out and old. Ribs average. Sides less than average. This place needs help.

First time here. Came with my husband. Lots of teenagers working in the back and they were very inappropriate while we were here. Lots of odd joking around. Not sure if they are joking around about the food or the customers. Will not be back and do not recommend to anyone.

My coworker and I both ordered the Chicken and Rib combo
Food was terrible for the following reasons
1. Meat and Garlic bread were served practically cold. Like the temperature your leftovers get after you forget to put them in the fridge for a few hours
2. DARK meat chicken was drier than cardboard.
3. The ribs were of good size, but full of fat and gamy
4. «Side» of french fries were more like 11 medium sized french fries
5. $ 15 for that meal was definitely not worth it
We came at prime dinner hours and it seemed like the food should have been served fresh. Very disappointed. With 4 ½ stars I would have expected better

I from Texas where BBQ lives. I must say this place has excellent Ribs, French Fries and Banana Pudding!

I have just moved to PCB about a month ago, and I really enjoy «mom and pop» resturants because they feel very at home, and comfortable and usually have superb food choices. Me, my fiancé and his father went to JR’s and it was awesome. So friendly, clean for a small rib place and the food was true southern style pit smoked food!
Our bill was a little less than 40 $ for the three of us but the amount of food you got was insane! We took a ton back home with us and it heats up just as good the next day! Well worth the visit to JR’s! Fast service, good BBQ, and a very comfortable atmosphere.

Be prepared to share some delicious barbecue. Fast service and good barbecue does it get any better

When I feel a hankerin’ for some good ol’ barbeque, I call upon J.R.‘s Rib Shack to satisfy. Let me tell ya, folks, this little hole-​in-​the-​wall offers up some good eats. I’ve been here several times, and they have never failed to impress my taste buds.
The meats (beef, chicken, pork, or turkey) are smoked over pecan and hickory wood to perfection. My personal preference, the beef, is always very flavorful. However, if you are like me and like your smoked meats drenched in sauce, nary you worry — J.R.‘s offers some very delicious barbeque sauces: mild, sweet, and spicy (and extra spicy, by request) at the table.
Any barbeque joint worth its salt also provides an offering of delicious sides to accompany their smoked meats. J.R.‘s offers most of the standard barbeque sides: baked beans, garlic toast, collard greens, cole slaw, potato salad, mashed potatoes, Brunswick stew, corn-​on-​the-​cob, and green beans. I usually go for the baked beans, mashed potatoes, and/​or garlic toast.
Did you save room for dessert? If your waistline can handle it (or you just don’t care about such things), dig in to the cobbler or banana pudding. Yum!
Though J.R.‘s might not look like much, for a satisfying meal that is easy on the wallet and good ol’ southern hospitality, this is the place to be.

Went in on a friday night. Place was fairly busy. Service was fast considering how busy they were. I ordered the special that night, it was the chicken and rib combo plate with brunswick stew and baked beans. My wife ordered the rib plate with coleslaw and potato salad. My brother had the jr’s burger and my daughter a grilled cheese with a side of mac and cheese. My brother and daughter enjoyed their very much. The burger was hot and very juicy. My daughter killed the mac n cheese and was very pleased with the grilled cheese which I got to try as well and it was tasty. I enjoyed all of the sides with the exception of the potato salad. Just tasted bland compared to the other sides which all had good flavor. The chicken was dry, almost as if it had been sitting in heat for a while. The ribs were awesome though. Texture was on point and the flavor had penetrated all the way to the bone. Sauces tasted like all the other bbq joints I have tried so far, very sweet. I can see myself coming back for those ribs but next time im bringing my own sauce.
