A fellow BBQ lover in Oklahoma City directed me to JC's Smoked Meats inside a Buy For Less discount grocery store in south Oklahoma City. With a line forming at 10:45, I had high hopes. By the time I placed my order for brisket and ribs, there were ten hungry customers behind me. There probably here for the great value including a $15.50 combo of brisket, ribs, hot links and sausage. I was having BBQ for lunch later, so I just opted for 1/2 pound of beef and a rib sandwich.
I could tell as it was sliced in front of me that the brisket was dry. After the ride back home it was even worse. It had some god smokiness and seasoning, but it was pretty tough to chew. I'm thinking this was yesterday's brisket. The ribs were about as fresh. A charred crust covered the dry meat which wasn't quite as smoky as the brisket. With this place being open until 8:00pm, maybe an evening visit would bring fresher meat.

I don't think my dog would touch that unappetizing looking brown brisket.
ReplyDeletei get my bbq at JC'S and i think its the best in OKC.Sometimes it might be a little dry i think from heat lamps.But its usually awesome.,8 out of 10 times i get it.he also has a place inside another store at 44 and i 35 .i hope you can try it again sometime those 10 people behind you that day were there for a reason.
ReplyDeleteI've been going to the one off 44th for the past 20 years. It's family owned and they are really personable people. The meat falls right off the bone and their homemade sauce is to die for! I wish they would expand to something bigger but for this small location, it's amazing!!
