JoJo’s Backyard BBQ serves Carolina-style BBQ at its finest!

First, the restaurant has a country feel and offers a down-home, family-friendly environment with indoor and outdoor dining.

With the sole desire to serve the BEST Carolina Style BBQ, they hickory smoke all of their BBQ until it becomes tender, fall off the bone, finger-lickin’ delicious.

JoJo’s Backyard BBQ offers pulled pork BBQ, ribs, and BBQ chicken with a variety of side dishes and homemade desserts! Sides include baked beans, slaw, “tater salad,” Brunswick stew, mac & cheese, hush puppies, and more. JoJo’s does not serve SC BBQ hash, however.

Portions sized big enough to fill your belly, and prices matched to fit your budget.

“Come see us and get some finger-licking-good BBQ!!”

What Folks are Saying:

With reviews ranging from 4.7 to 5 stars on the review sites, JoJo’s is a well-respected restaurant.

For instance, Google’s Local Guide Rob Papciak writes in a Google Review  that he visited more than once and likes what JoJo’s has to offer:

Hole in the wall… really good BBQ.  The meat, both the chicken and ribs literally fall off the bone. Meat is flavored deliciously. GREAT smoke ring layer is visible. 2nd time here. Sides: everything from baked beans to tater salad, mac n cheese. A no-frills BBQ joint.. worth the drive…friendly staff, eager to please…

Likewise, over on Yelp, Cory O knew he was in for a treat as soon as he walked into Jojo’s:

So good!  As soon as you walk in you know you’re in for a treat- it smells amazing. The ribs may be the best I’ve ever had. They come right off the bone and the sauce is caramelized to perfection. Pork and chicken were amazing as well and the service topped it off to make it a fantastic experience.
