Last Friday I had the opportunity to go dine at the Brother Jimmy?s BBQ that just opened by Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ. I?ve been past some of the Brother Jimmy?s BBQ in the city but had yet to go while I was there. I was staying by my boyfriend Jason last weekend and figured since he doesn?t live too far from New Brunswick it would be the perfect opportunity to enjoy a great, post-birthday week night of food & drinks with to kick off the weekend and Brother Jimmy?s did not disappoint!
To start, I got the signature Carolina Cooler and Jason got a beer. The Carolina Cooler was great because it?s a mix of Skyy vodka, fresh lemonade, blue curacao, and muddled lemons. It wasn?t too sweet or sour so I enjoyed it. We also ordered some spinach & artichoke dip to start. I really loved how that it was heavy on the spinach, the flavors were right on point.
After fully digesting the menu, our waitress came around and we had decided on what entrees we?d order, our ?spinach and artichoke dip was almost gone. ?I decided to get the half rack of Northern Style Ribs with collard greens and Jason got the BJ?s Signature BBQ Burger with all the fixin?s and fries. The ribs are smoked then grilled with Brother Jimmy?s Original BBQ Sauce. The BJ?s Signature BBQ burger wasn?t just any burger, they actually have their Pat LaFrieda custom blend, which is really tasty. The burger is basted with their Chipotle BBQ sauce and topped with cheddar cheese & onion straws.

I loved the Northern Style ribs, the flavor was perfect and had a little kick and Jason savored ?and devoured his entire burger. In fact, there is a little kick to all of the food at Brother Jimmy?s but I enjoyed it and so did Jason.
The Charleston A.P
I loved my first cocktail so much that I figured I might as well try another signature so I went with The Charleston A.P? Brother Jimmy?s boozy take on the classic, Arnold Palmer made with South Carolina sweet tea infused vodka and lemonade. Our waitress and some of the staff recommended it. I also looked around and the cocktails were flowing, the restaurant was crowded. As always, I had some leftover ribs to take back to with me, which were just as delicious the following day. I actually couldn?t wait to eat my leftovers!
Cheers!

Our trip to the new?Brother Jimmy?s?was definitely a success.?It?s a great addition to the dining scene in New Brunswick and is a new Jersey foodie destination, especially to those who may get to NYC often. The food is top notch, staff is friendly and accommodating, and the drinks are creative and won?t break the bank! I?m definitely a fan of the Brother?s Jimmy?s BBQ now and plan on taking a trip back in New Brunswick or NYC soon!
