I had driven by this place hundreds of times and never gave it a consideration. I started hearing rave reviews about it and finally stopped by. My initial thoughts after looking at the menu was that it was a little over priced but I was there and I ordered ribs and loaded fries.
It took one bite and I changed my mind on it being over priced. The loaded fries are so good. I’m sure there’s a lot of other good food but I’m addicted to the pulled pork fries and only order that. The worst part about this place is it’s hard to know what their actual business hours are but if your going by and they’re open, its worth the stop.

We tried the pulled pork and the Tri Tip. Both could use a little more seasoning. I know is how you want to make it but some Vinager sauce option would be nice. It also would be nice to have the sauce out where we could add or own. The guy making the sandwiches was real friendly and made sure our food was done right. I do BBQ competition so I’m a little spoiled by my own smoking. I love trying other BBQ it always gives me ideas. Keep up the good work. I’ll be back and will recommend Smokey Joe’s to my friends.

So excited they were open again. Then got home and ribs were pink and bloody. Tri tip was raw and looked like it had been chewed up and spit on bread. Really bummed out. Tri tip tasted terrible. After cooking ribs in oven they had good flavor.

Stopped in Medford on our way to southern Cal, I looked up a BBQ place. We love BBQ ! Smokey Joes had good reviews so we found our way there. A bit off the freeway, nobody there, my husband was skeptical. We ordered pulled pork sandwich, tri tip sandwich and some ribs. OMG! Their BBQ is the best I’ve had! Tender, smokey meat, falling off the bone. Freshly made. The ribs were pulled from the smoker. Only down side for us… We wanted to come back in the morning to get more before we got on the road but they didn’t open until eleven! Super nice people too! If you find yourself in or near Medford, you MUST STOP!

This is the best BBQ we’ve had in Oregon. Stopped here off I-​5, it’s easy to get to and a million times better than any fast food you’ll find right off I-​5! The pulled pork was great, fried pickles were tasty. Nicely smoked meat and light sauce made the sandwich. We will stop here again.

Had the bomber and it was the bomb. You know you’re dealing with a light BBQ spot, when you can order the meat naked (without sauce) and its moist and tender. Good stuff!

Very good barbecue. I got the bomber which was loaded with tri tip and pulled pork topped with jalapeños and grilled onions. I will definitely return to try their loaded fries !

I travel for a living in my to go to’s as far as food or Mexican and barbecue. So I looked up barbecue on Unilocal and this place popped up. If I’m being honest I was blown away by the food. I just got a pulled pork and french fries. Which I thought would be a pile of pulled pork and some french fries on the side. But it was all tossed together with cheese and spices. It was amazing. I will definitely be coming back here every time I’m in Medford.

Every time I’m in Medford I have to stop. The Pulled pork sandwich is great (Get it with grilled onions and their special mustard sauce!) and just when I thought their St. Louis style ribs couldn’t get any better, they stepped them up another notch. Friendly people and amazing food. I literally stopped and had lunch, then less than an hour later I was in their drive through again getting a drink refill and some more ribs. Oh, and the Pulled Pork Quesadilla is awesome!

Eat outside or take home great ribs. Not those horrible over sauced tiny ribs that fall off the bone. These are real ribs that require teeth. Nothing fancy and there is no potato salad. But with ribs this good, who cares? Their tritip sells out so call ahead.
