THE BEST BAR-B-QUE IN NASHVILLE,

brought to you by

Citysearch

A man of taste and multi-talents, Jack Cawthon first began in the food service business as Cawthon's Caterer, Inc. in 1976. While catering to Nashville's social functions over the years, Cawthon found there was a void in "good Nashville barbecue," and so began his homework. Jack Cawthon started Jack's Bar-B-Que and is currently located only 10 steps from the back stage door of the Historic... more

When youre after some serious barbecue, look for the sign with the flying pigs. Here at Jacks, which originally started on Broadway a few decades back, you can gnaw on some of the finest ribs around or go whole hog and load up a combo plate with beef brisket, pork shoulder and the delicious St. Louis-style ribs. Smoked chicken and Texas sausage are also good bets. Top it off with beans, slaw... more

With pink-neon flying pigs flanking its sign, this barbecue joint is easy to spot among the lower Broadway eateries. Get in line at the back of the casual, cozy dining room to get your paper plate loaded up with pulled pork, ribs and sides. The pork shoulder is tender and smoky and the beef brisket is moist and peppery. There's also macaroni and cheese and green beans--pretty much the only... more

Where to Sit

The main dining room gets crowded when there's a concert or game going on, so look to the back patio for additional seating. And bring your pup--the patio is pet-friendly.

When the barbecue urge strikes in The District, don't settle for cheap imitations; head to Jack's, where you can get pork shoulder, Texas beef brisket, St. Louis ribs, and smoked turkey, sausage, and chicken. There's another Jack's at 334 W. Trinity Lane (tel. 615/228-9888 ), in north Nashville.

I like Jack's a lot because of all the choices they have in terms of meats and sauces and because you get a lot for your money. It's not the healthiest food around, but if you want good BBQ in Nashville, this is it. I've waited in long lines here before, also, but it actually goes pretty fast!

Pros

+ Great food, fast, affordable

Cons

- Not any that would keep me from going here

My wife and I had the honor of visiting your store on Broadway this past weekend for the first time.

My wife had never been to Nashville, so for our 5th wedding anniversary we drove down from Kentucky without any real plans on what to do.

A cab driver suggested that we check out JACK?S BAR-B-QUE, and both of us loving the stuff took him up on it.

We ate lunch there and did not want to leave.... more

I keep meaning to try something besides the pulled pork shoulder plate with refried beans and mac and cheese but its just too darn good. Wash it down with an ice cold sweet tea and you have a delicious and nutritious lunch. Okay, maybe not nutritious, but well worth it.

Pros

+ Best BBQ I've had in Nashville

Cons

- The line can be long but its always worth the wait.
