I have been here twice and gotten ribs to go. I will go back again guaranteed. They remembered me and my order the 2nd visit. The house made mild sauce has pineapple in it which gives the barbeque a great flavor. Don't worry it mixes well with the hot sauce in case you need a bite to it.
My husband and I stopped in for lunch yesterday. We had not been to Smokin Jim’s in 10 years. We experienced the same great food and top notch service after all these years. Our server, Christy, was very friendly and thorough. Thank you for a wonderful lunch.

My wife and I love barbecue and had Smokin Jim's a few times on occasion. This time we went in on a Saturday night and decided to once again have some delicious barbeque. The pulled pork is delicious and the best in town for sure and the steak that "Muscles" made was on par. The best part of going there this time though was not the food. The food was fantastic but meeting Jim the owner was a pleasure. He is friendly and kind. He offered me and my wife to sample some other items on the menu. The steak was done to perfection and had great flavors. The pulled pork egg roll was new for us but is now a delicious new favorite and the chicken was moist, hot and succulent. Jim is a kind man and took excellent care of me and my wife. Great barbeque, great service, great people. Thanks Jim!

Swung by here for takeout while on vacation and was NOT disappointed. The ribs were HUGE and excellent, but the baked beans were perhaps the best I've ever had and I mopped up every morsel with the perfectly grilled toast. If you consider yourself a BBQ lover, just go there, they're the real deal!

Best barbecue ever. None of that chemical taste from liquid smoke. They used real wood, that meat was smoked, it was tender, and it had flavor. First time there definitely will not be my last.

LOVE this place!! Always have the best brisket I swear. And the ribs are my boyfriend’s favorite every single time. Even my kids will eat here and they’re so picky with bbq. The pulled chicken is also fantastic and their sweet bbq sauce is perfect along with it all. Banana pudding definitely takes the top over any other local place!! They always have great portions, and welcoming workers.

The food was EXCELLENT! The ribs were so tender, the baked beans were delicious and so was the potato salad! I will definitely be going back. The $ price was also great for the amount of food! I wish I could give them 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were looking for a proper American BBQ place on our drive back to Kissimmee from Fort Myers, and Smokin Jim's did not dissapoint! We met the owner in the car park who immediately invited us to have a look at his incredible Smokers. His passion for BBQ was obvious and he made us feel very welcome. The food was unbelievable, exactly what we were hoping for! Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted great, personal favourites for me being the ribs and the brisket. The sides were also really good, we had the mac and cheese (perfect), coleslaw (super fresh) and the collored greens. The hot sauce was also, and unsurprisingly, really fantastic!Besides the food, the service was spot on. Very welcoming and attentive staff. Great atmosphere inside!Thanks again for welcoming us into your restaurant and looking after us so well!

This place was worth the drive from Orlando. Ribs were fall off the bone tender..brisket was 1 of the best i have had in fl. Baked beans were on point. I believe the person that took care of was kortnei. She took great care of me. The egg rolls were good enough that i had ordered more to go. 1 and Only negative i had was with the mac n cheese. Not worth trying, but that's it. I would frequent smokin jims if it was closer And recommend to all to try out.
