Joe's Real BBQ

It’s heeere! What? Free food. When? Wed 5/2 11a-3p, 4p-8p. Where? our place. Why? It’s annual Customer Appreciation Day. We’ll be serving free pulled pork or chicken breast sandwiches with homemade slaw and award-winning bbq pit beans with an ice cold drink. What’s the catch? None. All free. No strings. Anything else going on? Yes, we’d love to think you could help our friends at Loving Through Literacy by bringing out a book for their book drive. We highly recommend getting in line by 730pm to get your meal.

Closed Sunday 4/8 for Easter. Joe’s Farm Grill (Higley and Ray) is open all day. We hope you’ll enjoy a great meal there on the holiday.

OK, so 3G is becoming a thing of the past.  But we’re throwback kinda guys.  We’re partial to 3G, especially when it pertains to 3 Generations of employees!  Here are Grandma, Grandpa, Mom and Daughter.  Together they have combined to provide more than 35 years of continuous service.  Great to have some awesome families working with us.  We’ll highlight more families soon!

We’ll be closing at 7pm Super Bowl Sunday 2/5

Watching some football this weekend thinking ahead to the Super Bowl.  If wings are on your list of must-haves for the game, we want you to know we’ll have plenty.  Best bet is to order in advance, so we can have however many dozen you want ready in hot or mild.  We normally just make hot wings for the weekend, but we will be offering both the hot and original wings Feb 5.  Drop us an e-mail (wings@joesrealbbq.com) or give us a call 480.503.3805.  $9.99 for a dozen, $16.99 for 2 dozen.

We’ll be open 11:00 am – 9:00 pm as usual, with the exception of Christmas Eve Day 12/24, when we close at 3pm and we’ll be closed Christmas Day

It’s that time of year. We found those amazing oversized jumbo sweet potatoes again, and Big D whipped up his famous cinnamon butter to complement. Give one a try, or split one at your table. Amazingly flavorful, in part because we smoke them, in part because (let’s face it) the sweet potato is a yummy thing in and of itself, and in part because the cold flavor-infused butter is a nice foil to the hot goodness. Enjoy!

In celebration of Gilbert’s centennial, Union Pacific’s historic steam locomotive is coming to Gilbert.  Saturday, November 12 the train is scheduled to arrive and stop at 12:45 downtown.  The celebration will start at 11:30 am and run until 2pm.  Whether you are a train enthusiast, have kids, or just want to be part of something cool, we hope you’ll come on down.

I hope those of you who love scooters will take advantage of what fatscooters has going on… #mce_temp_url#

Many people of my generation remember where they were when some seminal history-making things took place … 11/22/63, 3/30/81 and others.   For most people I know 9/11/01 is the day they won’t soon forget.  I spent 17 years with American Airlines and in fact was still employed by AA on that fateful day.  My Mom called and said I had to turn on the TV.  I was immediately ill.  I didn’t know at that moment that I knew a passenger and some of the flight attendants involved, but I knew that an industry I had been a part of since 1984 was being used as an instrument of chaos and destruction and it was heart breaking.  While my mind is too small to comprehend something so awful, I take respite in the fact God is sovereign.  This horrific act didn’t happen while He blinked, nor was it slipped past His omnipotent hand while He was on a break.   Romans 8:28
