Went there tonight for a pulled pork (B&B laugh) and sausage sandwich and french fries. Just over $9.00 for both, but amounts to 2 meals. I really like the atmosphere and the young man at the "to go" counter was very chatty and welcoming. I liked it enough that I will go back.
Incidentally, stopped by the "Chop House" BBQ at 41st & Memorial. Walked out after waiting at register to order and no one helped me. Besides, didn't like sides of potato salad just sitting out in a hotel pan.

They do have friendly people. No beans?? That is one of the high points of the place! |

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently. I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Where the hell were you 4-5 hours ago? You really let me down. Guess I'll have to go back sooner than expected. |

MC and I got the Electra Glide out of the barn yesterday to go see some spring colors and wound up out by Oklahoma Joe’s so I figured we should stop in.
I had the rib and extra meat plate- I chose sliced brisket and got the spicy slaw on the side.
MC got the Carolina pulled pork sandwich- pulled pork & spicy slaw on a bun.
I don’t usually get sliced brisket because it dries out too easily. No issue there, it was well smoked, sliced thin and seemed to have very little fat. Ribs were tender, had a great smoke ring, and great flavor. I didn’t really detect a heavy presence of rub. I wash’t aware they serve their ‘que with sauce on it unless you ask otherwise. I prefer mine dry so I can add sauce as necessary.
Speaking of sauce: the hot sauce is what I consider a mild to medium. Great flavor, but if you like a great tongue burn, this isn’t it. Personally, I don’t like obnoxious heat in a sauce so the subtlety was appreciated. Same with the spicy slaw.
MC loved her sandwich. She said it’s some of the best BBQ pork she’s ever had.
One other thing I did appreciate that others may not, is they don’t pile on the food, it’s reasonably portioned. I didn’t feel bloated when I left and, not sure how to describe it other than the food had a very “clean” smoked flavor.
Her sandwich was $6.19 and my plate was $12.49 as I recall.
They did have a Sunday special I was wishing I had tried, a smoked prime rib. 1/2 pound cut is $14.95, full pound, $17.95. Served with a loaded potato.
I’ve had a lot of BBQ over the years, I’d rank Oklahoma Joe’s in the top 10-15 of every place I’ve tried. Locally, it’s in the top five for me. We will make the drive out there again, well worth it.

Should have tried the beans.
I posted this in the Burn Co thread after your mention of Ok Joes, not realizing this thread was active, but I am hearing Joe will open his next location at Tulsa Hills.

Ate there again this weekend. Brisket sandwich was delicious.
Nothing beats a Brisket sandwich with a nice Foster's (oil can) and then a stroll through Bass Pro!
Joe has done a good job.

I trust your opinion on things that are grilled and or smoked but I've not had your luck there. |

I've heard from some that they have their days. I've caught them on a few good ones. Also worth noting, I typically eat lunch at around 11am, and that's the best time to eat at any BBQ joint. The later you wait, the longer the product sits on a steam table or in a warmer. Our wonderful heath dept requires you to keep meats at 160 degrees (instead of 140) so BBQ really suffers. 30mins to late and you've got a dry brisket! I do know a secret on how to overcome that, but I will probably take it to the grave with me. |

Thanks for that. I'll keep it in mind. |

Take a weekend drive to Oologah and try Black Jaxx. Ribs and pork is all he is doing so far, do to limited facilities - smoker and a tent. Beans are an intermittent side. Un Be Lieve Able good! (Directions - again - on request.) |

I live near Collinsville and might give that a shot this weekend. Two things, 1, do you recall of they have grilled cheese, burgers, or dogs on their (kids) menu and 2... How to get there!!!  ) |
