Jimmys Backyard BBQ in other cities:
Stopped in for the greatest wings in the world. Ive honestly been all over Ohio working and had my share of wings and can say without a doubt the best ever.I have turned on more people to Jimmys since i had them a few yrs ago at Carroll Lanes. I brought lunch to my crew one day as we were working on the bowling alley.Everyone that day stopped on there way home from work and took home dinner to there families. My crew loves working in Carrollton.We also had the opportunity to work close to Jimmys Backyard BBQ in Louisville.I had the pleasure of working for the McMillens.
Super fast service. We were able to dine in as well. Way better than the Louisville location though i imagine thats more to do with who is cooking. Mac and cheese was very good, the meat trio both my husband and i had was great. Nothing was dry, the wings literally fell off the bones. Will be coming back here for sure!
Mac n cheese was shooshy and greasy with no flavor and tasted old, brisket was brown and greasy with no flavor and tasted old, pulled pork was OK, hand cut fries were good. Smoked wings were dry with no flavor and tasted like old refrigerator, Sausage had too much fennel seed. Save yourself the money, its not worth it.
Its a counter order place. In sum, the meats are quite good, tasty and moist but the side dishes leave a lot to be desired. Bathroom was clean. Great cheerful, quick, helpful service.Funnel cake fries were fantastic.Interesting choices of sauces. Good portion sizes.Cons:Mac and cheese didnt have much flavor and it was dry, not at all creamy.The bread for the pulled pork sandwich was dry and seemed old.Brisket chili tasted good but didnt have much meat in it.Green beans were quite blah, as were the parsley potatoes.Pros:Pulled pork meat was moist and flavorful.Ribs fell off the bone and were delicious.Smoked sausage was more like Italian sausage but was still good
Jimmys was amazing!!! We had the Carrollton location cater our wedding reception and they were so wonderful to work with, so helpful & the food was awesome! Everyone loved it and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who loves real delicious BBQ. Thank you guys over there so much for everything!!!
Best and only BBQ in town. Ive ate here multiple times. I will be honest, 1st time I had their BBQ it was a pulled meat sampler and I wasnt impressed. Then I tried the full rack with Jimmys regular BBQ sauce..... Best ribs and sauce hands down. BTW.... The hush puppies and corn bread are very good. Over all good ribs but it is expensive. Great friendly service.
The food is always awesome and great prices! My favorite is the pulled pork sandwich...just the right amount of smoke, always tender and they serve it on a bun that doesnt disintegrate in your hands. You cant go wrong with any of the BBQ on the menu. At this time of year its a little taste of summer in the middle of winter!
Love Jimmys! Dont get down to Carrollton much anymore, but when I do its my first choice. Great food, and Jimmy is a great guy with a friendly, outgoing personality. The rest of the staff is always friendly and helpful as well. Love their BBQ wraps/burritos, but everything there is fantastic!
We were looking for good place to eat and found excellent ratings for Jimmys and thought we would give it a try and we were not disappointed. The baby back ribs were fall off the bone delicious, the chopped chicken was juicy and flavorful. The hush puppies were fresh hot and amazing.
My husband and I recently moved to Carrollton and quickly fell in love with Jimmy’s. The food is fantastic and we became regulars. Unfortunately, tonight, the girl that was behind the counter was not so fantastic. We came in and we were ordering when we were told they were out of rice. Which was fine, it happens! The girl continued and put a tiny bit of brisket on the tortilla. My husband then asked for a little more as it wasn’t a lot and there was no rice to fill the burrito up like it normally would be. She then proceeded to tell us very rudely that it was going to be $3 more for a little extra because they weighed things out. Which, normally we would have no problem with, but again, there was no rice. My husband turned to me and we talked a little and she said, “are you getting it or not?” We then decided we would go somewhere else and as we were walking out she snapped “you just wasted food you can’t be doing that.” And then continued to talk about us as we walked out the door.
Omg jimmys backyard bbq i would give this guy a million stars if i could ! I am in LOVE with their GIGANTIC BURRITOS ! I personally couldnt tell you much about the other items on the menu lol because this is always my go too! I used to drive 2 hours just to feast on one of these bad boys ( which always happen to last me 2 meals lol) !!! Ive been coming here for abput 8 years and no family owned joint has ever come close to this one ! The best part is the homemade ingredients they make, that you literally couldnt replicate if you tried ! Trust me Ive failed multiple times lol. If you havent been here I strongly encourage u to make the trip ! Also , The employees have always been very respectful and kind so thats always a huge plus ! FYI if your not from the area or havent been here before , Id suggest keeping your eyes peeled because its little and kind of hiddenish so you may just pass it up !
Came for the new burgers.Wrote Jimmys off last year cause the BBQ is microwaved at best. Prob great out of the smoker but sitting in water all day kinda turns it into slop. Was excited to try a burger though cause this town is without a good burger. $6.99 for a microwaved frozen burger patty with an American cheese slice and pulled pork slop is a rip-off. I wish people here in this area had a clue as to what good food tastes like. Def will not be back, nor recommend.People are friendly though.
Overall I was pleased to find a nice place to eat in a small town that did not involve fast food chains (of which I despise). Staff was courteous, service was prompt, atmosphere was nice and clean. I was offered a rib dinner special- half a rack of ribs, cornbread, and two sides. To be fair, Ive spent a lot of time around a smoker and have eaten at some of the top nationally ranked BBQ joints across the country (CLE Mabels BBQ, Austin TX Franklins and Salt Lick, etc...) In comparison (and as stated earlier I only tried the ribs) Jimmys Backyard BBQ left me wishing for more of a smoke taste. The bottom of the ribs had a rubbery consistency, the meat was brown all the way through with zero presence of a smoke ring, and they were served topped with BBQ sauce. I would of liked to taste more of a rub on the meat, some spice, some bark, some texture, etc... The ribs came off the bone very nicely, with a bite, instead of merely falling off when handled. And I was dining at 1:30pm on a Thursday so I wasnt expecting their best effort.Overall it surpassed what society has become to accept as BBQ, this is def a step up from the sauce covered droll ribs one would have the unfortunate experience of consuming at say a Chilis or Abblebees. I will come back I ever find myself in Carrollton again, and try some of their pulled meats, as I have to assume might be a step up. Hopefully they have the flavor of a good rub, texture of a bark, and arent served swimming in sauce so that I may add my own (if I see fit). Proper BBQ does not require any sauce.Thanks for lunch, and best of luck!
The girl behind counter had zero personality, but luckily the boy that drew the short straw and had to work next to her had a great personality and was able to over balance her rudeness, otherwise I easily could have walked out and went somewhere else. As for the food...its ALWAYS good!
Drove down to Carrollton for work and stopped in for lunch. Service was great. Food came right out. I tried the brisket burrito. Hands down one of the best burritos Ive had. Just as good as Chipotle but with a a smoky BBQ flavor! Loved the sauces my favorites were the spicy!
I Love Jimmys Backyard BBQ!!! My favorite (which) I get everytime Im there is a Chin Dripper with chicken. The sandwich is amazing!!! The staff is awesome and the owners are absolutely wonderful and so kind. This is what a family owned business is all about. They are also more than happy to give back to the community. If there were one hundred stars I would of given them a 100
Jimmys is the best place in town to get wings. Unlike other places that fry their wings, Jimmys smokes them and they practically fall off the bone. They have several sauces to choose from for all of their food items, but my personal favorite is Saras Spicy. It has just enough kick without being so hot that it loses its flavor. If youre looking for something to cure burger boredom, go to Jimmys!
We have stopped in to Jimmys BBW for the last 3 years when weve been in town for baseball. This year our teams double header did not even end until 7:30- which is closing time for Jimmys on Sundays but we called ahead and explained to the restaurant our plight- they stayed opened and did not fail us!!! The food is always perfect, the meat fell off the bones. And as always we took 2 jars of Jimmys bbq sauce home with us!!! Absolutely love Jimmys!!

2022-06-07I can really only speak for the ribs and this is my first time there but they are probably some of the best Ive ever had. Really super tender meat and great smoky flavor. Just enough bark. Baked beans and mac and cheese were tasty but the ribs were what its about. Definitely will stop again. Looking forward to lunch (the other half rack) tomorrow 😎

2022-05-26Welcoming home town place. We really enjoy places like this. This was our first time here. Jimmy himself waited on us. The pulled pork and chicken was very good. The sweet bbq sauce (Jimmys original) was also good. We were happy to see that they have Pepsi products as well. Over all a very good experience.

2022-05-10I went there without realizing the time and when I walked in I realized they were almost ready to close, actuality 7 minutes until closing. The staff was AMAZING!!! They were so kind and polite . Most workers are so ready to leave even an hour before closing and that they act like everything is a bother so I was so impressed with Jimmys workers. Not only great food but friendly caring workers too.

2022-04-24Pulled pork and fresh cut fries are good. The service was unorganized. Its a weird fast food BBQ, but if your in town its worth a stop.
