I haven't understood the whole Joe's hype myself. We live 1 hour from Memphis and My faves are dry ribs at Rendezvous and pulled pork at Interstate BBQ. They got to know their slaw also- not just any old thing will do! If you've had a few in the afternoon and walk by Joes the smell alone drags you inside, even if it is not my favorite.

Great if you like parboiled with a finish on a grill. I think it only tastes great because you're eating on St John Will definitely be trying this new location. Uncle Joe’s is at best mediocre BBQ.

If so, it was quite good when we ate there in August. But, I'd be willing to try Candi's to see how it compares Is Uncle Joe’s the place on the corner there in Cruz bay across from the “2 El Presidentes for $3″ bar?

We'll be down in late March - so I'll have to go taste testing! Just offering a shout out from Memphis since you mentioned two of our religions - Bar-B-Que and Elvis - in the same update!

I can't wait to try Candi's BBQ though I believe they will be seeing us early for our fist night on St. John...those ribs looked awesome!

We've never been fans of Uncle Joe's (Open Pit) so we are definitely going to check out Candi's. If she can get you your food in less than an hour, she'll have another advantage over Joe's.
