Barbeque Restaurants near Bakersville

“This is our second time trying Red Wolff. First it was the Mahi tacos with pineapple habanero salsa (in which those were absolutely amazing in every way) and this time it was BBQ. The BBQ was absolutely delicious and tender, not to mention the sides were delicious as well. You can tell they put so much love and hard work into their food/presentation. They are so friendly (as my husband has stated - since he is the one who has went and picked up our food both times) and take the time to appreciate you when you give them a compliment. This little place is by far the best!!! I wish they had an actual restaurant because I would most definitely eat here all the time??? Kudos to you all. I pray you will always have business. This place is just awesome!“

“5 Stars Is No Where Near Enough! Regardless of the quality of the food, this is what “service” is supposed to be! And the food is the best BBQ I’ve ever had!It’s easy to say something is the best. Words mean very little. CJ’s BBQ & More is SO MUCH MORE THAN FOOD! Recently, I was tasked with planning an event for 250-300 people at our facility in North Carolina. Our company is very high-profile and we do not make moves for the sake of making moves.When it comes to BBQ, I have always been a fan of the standalone pitmasters that have a smoker setup in a parking lot on the side of the road. The heart, love, and “blood, sweat, and tears” that go into everything these people put into their food is instantly apparent with the first bite, and that was what I wanted for my guests.When it came time to find our food vendor, I went to Facebook. I wanted to find a local pitmaster that could support the event (volume) while delivering an extremely high level of quality at the same time. I looked at about 10 pages and nothing really caught my attention—then I saw CJ’s BBQ & More.Not knowing if Chris and his team could handle the volume, I send him an email asking for some information. I had a basic menu, level of service I wanted for my guests, and I put the ball in his court. It was the best decision I could have made! From minute one, Chris worked diligently to EARN our business, not take our money! I immediately saw value in CJ’s BBQ & More. Chris’ energy was infectious, and it was instantly apparent that the man truly loves what he does. I work in a world built on passion, and it’s very easy to recognize that in others—Chris has it in spades!!After a few brief discussions to align on menu and service, Chris provided a quote that reflected his desire to earn our business. If the price was doubled it still would have been worth every penny!As a formality, we wanted to sample some food so we knew what we would be getting. While I had hoped for a few samples just to get a taste, Chris brought out four trays of food and fed nearly the whole company! Every person that tried lunch that day was blown away! The food, the sauces, the sides… everything was absolutely amazing! The most difficult part was going back to work after such an amazing lunch!Game Time! When the day of the event arrived, Chris brought is food trailer and smoker on site the morning of. We had discussed placement ahead of time, and I honestly forgot they were here when I was completing out setup. Chris and his team worked tirelessly to ensure our guests received the same level of service or more, and everyone was greeted and served with a smile! Our staff and guests were blown away by the food, and nearly everything was gone! Anything left over was quickly devoured by our staff and didn’t make it to the next day!Chris even prepared different items that were not on our menu! I honestly wished I had added them to our menu because it was all amazing!When all was said and done, the area used was left in the same condition as when they arrived. I could not have asked for anything better on any level! I don’t normally write reviews, but in my opinion, CJ’s BBQ & More deserves all of the praise and recognition possible! I can say with the utmost certainly, you will not find better food, better service, or nicer kindhearted people that truly care! Thank you, Chris! I can’t wait for the next one!“

“Amazing experience! My wife and I ate here on our honeymoon over 2 years ago and still talk about this restaurant to this day. I love how they support the local school/ community with all of their decor. Very great atmosphere and food is great too. The fact that I’m still thinking about this restaurant from over 2 years ago and over a thousand miles away is proof that it was that great of an experience!“
