Reviews for Thig's BBQ House in Jacksonville, NC
Its been a few years but I am back in the area and want to come to the pick up window...is that still open? We used to come... there at least a couple times a week. But I had been out of the area in Pitt co. for awhile but I like this area better. Read more
I've been coming to Thigs for decades. I vacation here in NC about every year from Wisconsin. It's literally the best pulled... pork I've ever had. Southern hospitality at its best. The best hush puppies to me hands down. Read more
So I am in town visiting my Son, Daughter In Law and new granddaughter and they eat here offer so they really wanted me to try... it. So today we went and had lunch here before my flight home and the food was delicious and the staff was beyond good. I love aplace that has good down home cooking and this place hit that on the head. I am looking forward to coming back and try morestuff on the menu on my next visit. Read more
This place has been on my "want to go" list for a while and I finally get to mark it off. Now I have to go back. Many, many... times. From the outside the place looks like a Texas roadside BBQ joint. Once inside you know it is a serious BBQ place. Youwill be greeted as soon as you are in the door. It is seat yourself at a choice of 10-12 booths or same amount of tables. Themenu is a clipboard with 2 full pages of options. There are apps, sandwiches, plates, platters, sides and so so much for me totry. Drinks are Pepsi products, coffee and tea. Sweet tea. That comes in a pitcher on your table. (Heaven better be like this.)We got our drinks pretty quick along with the required hush puppies and butter. After 2 bites my wife, hush puppy aficionado,named these the best ever. I couldnt argue. We also ordered fried pickles as an app. And placed our meal orders. My wife orderedthe smoked white meat chicken (breast & wing) with mashed potatoes, gravy and corn. I ordered the smoked white meat chicken,pulled pork, boiled potatoes and cooked cabbage. The server came over with what looked to be the sauce aisle from the store. Wewere given their chicken sauce (amazing), western NC sauce, ranch (for the pickles) and vinegar for my cabbage. The REAL sauce,eastern NC BBQ sauce, was already on the table. The order of pickles was largest quantity we've ever received as an app. And itcame with it's own sauce. Kind of a chipolte ranch that was beyond good. All of the food was perfectly cooked and the chickenhad the best smoked flavor. Then the sauce too, oh man. All of the sides were perfect and delicious. Even the cabbage was onpoint, not mushy like it can get. Everything was the best from the service to the food. We were offered some banana pudding butI could barely breath much less eat any more. So I have to go back for the BBQ Nachos and banana pudding. Read more
I started off with a side of hush puppies and chose the barbecue pork sandwich with a cole slaw topping, and banana pudding for... dessert. Everything started off great when the waitress brought me out my own pitcher of ice tea and a basket of hushpuppies. The pork sandwich had a decent portion of meat and a small spoonful of coleslaw on top. A spoonful? Yes a spoonfulspread out like a thin layer of butter. The pork was average and nothing spectacular like I was expecting. I beleive the meatswere smoked with apple wood that compliments pork - not today because I didn't taste any smoke even on the bark. The bananapudding was delicious! This was a hearty portion and the icing on top of the cake. Read more
Check out these BBQ nachos from Thig's. We loved them! The chips are tortillas fried up fresh. I had them put brisket as the... meat. The one improvement I would recommend to them is to shred the lettuce. My wife's burger was also excellent. A solid localBBQ spot. Read more
Well worth the trip! Haven't had Carolina BBQ in years (hazard of living up north). Came down for work and noticed Thig's as I... was leaving the airport. Came back to try their food. Pulled pork, baked beans, cole slaw, hush puppies and sweet tea. Oh,all so good. For dessert, waitress' voice raised when she said the Banana pudding. I now know why. Well worth the trip. Anddon't forget to try the fried green tomatoes Read more
The food truck was pretty expensive for what they are giving. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich with onion rings, and she gave me... fries instead. Ended up being around $13 for a really below average lunch. The meat on the sandwich was good, but with no sauceit's pretty dry. Read more
