Who knew you could get award-winning barbecue in NJ at a tiny restaurant in the small town of Turnersville? Fat Jack’s BBQ, one of the newest buzz-worthy arrivals on the NJ barbecue scene, serves all the classics done to perfection. It’s not hard to see why this is an award-winning restaurant – and not just any awards! Fat Jack’s has won over two hundred of the most prestigious awards in the barbecue competition circuit, but you don’t have to wait until the next cook-off. You can just check into Fat Jack’s BBQ, where you can choose between simple smoked meat platters or unique Mexican fusion. It’s one of my favorite new bbq joints in New Jersey, and I bet it’ll be one of yours too.

Fat Jack's BBQ looks like it could be built into any old roadside fast food joint - but the food here is slow-smoked and top-notch.
