Jack’s Bar-B-Q
Location
Jack’s Bar-B-Q, Gibsonville Jack’s is small and a little bit out of the way. But the folks are so nice, and downtown Gibsonville is a wonderful slice of small-town North Carolina. The food here is good, too. Folks brag about the special, Jack’s Big Boy, which is a giant beef burger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, and melted cheese. It may sound like something you could get at a fast food place, but it really tastes quite different, quite wonderful — just like you probably remember the hamburgers in your favorite place back home. If you’re lucky, famous Gibsonville natives like St. Louis Rams football player Torry Holt or N.C. State University women’s basketball coach Kay Yow will be back home and drop by for a Big Boy.
