Personal favorites are Jenkins and Mojos, but I haven't had any of the title restaurants.
Im a purist of southern bbq, over the years those two are the best, and in that order!

Cottens has always been good -- I haven't been in a long time (I need to do that soon).  I've notice it got a bit o' lipstick put on it and is lookin' good.

Bulls BBQ (Baymeadows Rs), Cattlemans (Atlantic Blvd), The Pig (Normandy Blvd), Monroes (Highway Ave), Blackjacks (San Juan) all good places. Got to remember this isnt KC or the Carolinas...Our BBQ is a little different, namely because of the mustard based sauce....ummm I am getting hungry!

Unfortunately Blackjacks closed.  They should have stuck with their small operation on Shirley Ave.  They got bigger, started using gas and the quality fell apart.

Mojo's ribs are GREAT!

thanks for sharing, i didnt know they closed. Still many good options on the westside though.

That's it. I'm working tonight and tomorrow night I'm hauling my butt to Jenkins and getting myself a slab- I can't take all this bbq talk anymore.

yess bulls bar b que is great! they just close to early and arent open on the weekends. I just moved to the baymeadows and I hit their lunch buffet. I hadnt ate there in like 8 years. Jenkins is still good, but they are just a little pricey. So I dont go very often.

If the Laura Trio news wasn't today, this would be the best news I've heard in a while!!!!!!!!!!!  Where, when, etc!!!???

The Pig is *hooorrrrriiible* ugh any of their locations. As far as I'm concerned if you want the real deal, it's Fred Cotten's or Jenkins. Bono's (only the Beach Blvd Location) is my close second.

Mojo's in Avondale ~ in the former space the furniture store Nadeau vacated
No projected opening date as of yet

Fantastic News.  Thanks for the info.  My family was pretty upset when Nadeau left, but this will help ease the pain.  The Avondale strip is really turning into a great area.  More feasible (read: affordable) dining options and nighttime entertainment than San Marco and with more neighborhood charm than 5 pts.  Anyone been to Elevated Avondale yet?

Not to throw this thread off topic. But Sunday brunch at Blue Tuna is awesome. 4 dollar unlimited mimosas? YES PLS!

Will be nice to see Mojo there.
