Jim ’N Nick’s Bar-B-Q Menu
Smoked Meats and Cheese Biscuits
The menu is built around pork, brisket, ribs and chicken from the smoker: classic pulled pork, beef brisket smoked for 12 hours, spare ribs by the pound, half chickens and smoked wings. Mr. Jim’s combo plate lets you pick two or three meats. Sides include collard greens, mac and cheese, baked beans and barbecue corn, and the brisket chili is a regular order. The cheese biscuits are what many people remember; they come warm with family meals and are a fixture on most tables. Desserts are banana pudding and Mable’s homemade pies.
Takeout, Family Meals and Catering
