Bar style atmosphere. Smoked turkey plate was tender and had a pepper based rub. Smoked gouda Mac n cheese is delicious! Turnip greens were well chopped and cooked but had a sweet flavor and lots of bacon that was unexpected. Sweet smokey sauce, NC vinegar version and hot. Good local place to try while in town!

We dine here on 1/31/26. The establishment was not too crowded, so we were seated promptly. Our waitress was over to our table soon after seating to get our drink order. A few minutes after getting our drinks, she came back for our food order. I had the 2 meat platter with Brisket and Turkey. They both were smoked to perfection with just enough smoke flavor. I also had the Baked Beans and Coconut Street corn. Both were outstanding in my opinion. The Beans had a nice hint of heat. The Street Corn had a slight hint of Coconut at the beginning of the taste. My wife had the same meal, except for onion rings which were pretty good also. The Pickled Onions and Jalapeno’s were good also. Cornbread also comes with the meal and was firm, but moist. It was very good. The turkey was just a tad dry, but overall real good flavor. I can’t wait to go back to try the Wings!

So glad we stopped in here! The Brisket Mac n’ Cheese was so good, and so was the Fried Chicken Sandwhich–the fried jalapeños on the sandwich were great. I highly recommend the potato salad. Very very good, straight forward barbecue. The people working here are friendly and when we were eating, they had live music which was nice 🙂

I stopped in for lunch at Jay’s Smokin BBQ, and it was excellent from start to finish.
The atmosphere is spacious and welcoming with plenty of seating, TVs for catching the game, and a full bar that adds to the laid-back vibe. It’s a clean, well-run spot that makes you feel comfortable whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or settling in with friends.
For food, I tried the St. Louis ribs and brisket, paired with their homemade chips and cornbread. The ribs were perfectly smoked with a rich bark and tender bite. The brisket was just right – smoky, juicy, and flavorful all the way through. The homemade chips were crisp and addictive, and the cornbread had that ideal balance of sweetness and texture to round out the plate.
Service was friendly and attentive, and everything came out fresh and hot.
If you’re in the area and craving authentic, well-done BBQ, Jay’s is absolutely worth the stop. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Very nice atmosphere and great staff. Met the owner and got a firsthand experience of what this place is all about. I started with the Smokey Pork Rinds and they were amazing.
The dipping sauce was really incredible! Main meal was the 3 meat platter, brisket, pulled pork and ribs. All very good!

Jay’s Smoking Barbecue – Worth the Detour!
Tucked away off the beaten path, Jay’s Smoking Barbecue is a hidden gem that’s absolutely worth discovering. My daughter stumbled upon it through a quick Google search, and we’re so glad she did!
From the moment we walked in, everything hit the mark. The sweet tea was just right — cold, refreshing, and perfectly sweet. The fried pickles were crispy, tangy, and addictive. And the chicken wings? Cooked to perfection with incredible flavor in every bite.
If you’re traveling nearby, don’t hesitate to pull off the interstate and drive a few miles — it’s more than worth it. This spot comes highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Southern barbecue with a welcoming atmosphere.

Stopped in for a bite, was warmly greeted by Vicki and served promptly. The Ribs were fall of the bone great, nice bark on them, brisket was delicious as well, moist and flavorful. Sauce was good, and great sides too. The best part of the experience was Vicki, even though she was extremely busy, she took care of everyone quickly and with a smile. Must try place if you’re in the area.

Food was great, our server was great but she was doing many other duties so we had to wait a couple of times for service. Atmosphere was great, we got there right before dinner.
