Jessie Rae's BBQ

PBTD 02/20

Best BBQ place in Las Vegas. (And it really exists!) Katie's opinion was that you cannot be trusted to take someone to barbeque until you have had Jessie Rae’s.” They got off the freeway at West Russell Street and went up the overpass. A few blocks west they took a right on South Valley View Blvd, and just fifty yards down Katie had her blinker on. It was a tiny little strip mall, with a small sign for Jessie Rae’s on the right side of the building.

Where do they smoke their meat?” Derek asked. “In the oven?”“Shut your mouth!” Katie quipped. “The pits are out back, actually.” They walked in and stood in line, Katie pointing to the massive menu on the wall. “If you don’t try the waffle fries, I’m going to have to say you’re an idiot. Red and white checkered table cloths. . “Okay, so whatever you do, you have to get the waffle fries. They are like the best thing ever made. And as far as the meat, it doesn’t matter which you pick—it’s all delicious. You won’t even need a knife to cut it, just your fork and about a thousand napkins. Oh, and that guy over there? That’s Mike. He’s the head guy, the chef of the joint.
