House Fam
Wow just wow! Love it when i can support small local businesses. This by far the best bbq we have had in these parts. You don’t even need sauce it’s that juicy and tasty! The price is good for the amounts you get. You could feed a family with the loaded potatoe alone. The pic i took is only half! And the service and people are just so sweet. And all the customers just raved about it when we visited and asked questions. Definitely coming back to try the other half of the menu. Thank you!

Humongous spilling over the sides meaty tender and super tasty brisket potato!!!!
I can’t remember a better one I’ve ever had! It could feed 2 normal people, and stuffed me full as a tick!
I had the Sadie baked potato, burnt ends, and tried a bacon wrapped jalapeno. The burnt ends were too tender, I like mine more crispy. I would skip the bacon jalapeno, but that potato was fabulous!
I came because of the photos and it was spot on!! Bonus was it tasted as good as it looked! I would definitely return and try the huge sandwich next!
The cashier was super friendly and also said the Arlington location is not affiliated with this location, and this location was much preferred by their customers.
The simple decor shows off the award winning BBQ and leaves no doubts to their expertise.
Well done!

Very delicious BBQ. We ordered the chopped brisket sandwich and the Tuesday Special and both were to die for. Definitely will return.

I am always thinking about what my favorite BBQ in DFW is and Jambo’s Original is near the top of my thoughts. Some BBQ places can do a smoke & mirror act by serving Prime grade brisket which will almost always taste great even with an amateur pitmaster smoking it. At Jambo’s Original I am sure the brisket is not higher than Choice grade and it is absolutely amazing. The seasoning and smoke level are perfect. The brisket is moist and falls apart easy. If an amazing brisket isn’t enough, their pork ribs are absolutely perfect. They have a sweet flavor and they are tender. They don’t “fall-off” the bone but they easily pull off the bone. They are also beautiful to look at. The sides are very good and the service was great. If there is a definition of a true off the beaten path Texas BBQ I do believe it is Original Jambo’s in Rendon.

I ordered the chopped brisket sandwich, and honestly, it was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. Our food came out incredibly fast — I could barely sit down before it was ready! The mac and cheese was just as impressive, and the prices were very reasonable.
This place is perfect for a quick, delicious lunch. The sweet tea was also really good — a great Southern touch. My only regret? Not asking for more BBQ sauce!
Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area and hungry.

We start with the service, it was awesome! The lady at the counter was super sweet, and if you never had their food you need to now. I had the Sadie, which is a fat baked potato with brisket, sausage, grilled onions, beans, sour creme, a ton of butter and holy cow it is only $12.00! I added the potato salad and a sweet tea, I really can’t say anything else. I returned today for the “Jambo Texan” some jalapeños, cowboy corn and potato salad. It was well worth the money! $18 for the sando, $1.50 for each jal and $2.50 per side. I snapped a Pic of both the Sadie and JT. Don’t sleep on this spot Burleson, it’s that damn good.

It has been a long time since being there. Food and service are not the same.
Macaroni and cheese very watery, ribs were ok brisket was greasy and dry, sausage was dry too.
