About this business

Well off the beaten path, The Joint serves up what is often argued as the best barbecue in the Crescent City. Passersby may miss this tiny barbecue café at first glance, but the fragrant smell of the smoking meat keeps the restaurant going unnoticed. The Joint menu features all of the barbecue basics including brisket, pulled pork, chicken and ribs. Side options include cole slaw, potato salad, macaroni and cheese, and baked beans. Finish a meal with a slice of pecan, key lime, or peanut butter pie. - Bethany Culp

Was watching an episode of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives on the Food Network when The Joint was featured. I love BBQ and when my wife decided to come to New Orleans for a little R & R, we had to come here. I had the two meat combo which was the pulled pork and sliced beef brisket. Both were completely awesome! Loved the sauce, mac and cheese and the potato salad. Definitely worth the drive from Oklahoma. Keep smoking yall!
