Jesse's Barbecue & Local Market

Jesse's Barbecue & Local Market is a family-owned Southern-style barbecue spot on North County Line Road in Souderton. It's open Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Slightly outside the Lehigh Valley, but after stopping in, I can confidently say it's absolutely worth the drive. I had to start with the wings, smoked to perfection and then fried for a crisp finish. Each bite hit with smoky flavor, crunch, and a sweet-savory kick from the Asian sauce. Simply incredible! After the wings, I moved on to the BBQ sampler, which includes three fall-off-the-bone ribs, two slices of tender brisket, a tasty, well-seasoned drumstick, and juicy pulled pork. For sides, I went with mac & cheese and BBQ baked beans. They weren't nearly as impressive as the meats, but were still enjoyable

Came here today for the first time. And I have to say the food is pretty good. I will say the pulled pork sandwich is phenomenal. I absolutely love the roll that it was on and the consistency & flavor of the pork was delicious. The brisket was absolutely fall apart however I was a little surprised at the portion that you received for almost $20. It’s not that I’m complaining it’s that when I open the box was a little bit surprised & underwhelmed, but then I opened the box for the chicken and I was overwhelmed because the chicken was absolutely massive. The brisket was delicious. Very flavorful. I got two different types of the sauce to try and they were both very good. The mac & cheese was one of the absolute shining stars. The mac & cheese was delicious and the cornbread was also phenomen

My nephew raves about this place. I was sadly disappointed! The chicken was the best thing I had. It was smoky & juicy really tasty!! I don't eat pork, but my family who had the ribs said they were good. Also, the baked beans were delicious!! Brisket is always my favorite, but this, although it was juicy & tender it had zero smoky flavor or seasoning. The mac & cheese was so bland. My niece had the pulled pork sandwich, but said the bread was dry & too thick for the sandwich. The corn fritters were also dry & there was more breading than corn. Also, the peanut butter cookie was dry * tasted old. The service was nice. The young lady who took our order was very friendly!

Besides the food and atmosphere being a perfect 10, the staff was a standout. Even with the line wrapping around the building, they were all so pleasant and kept the line moving at a steady pace. It was a true pleasure to see them working with such big smiles. I had the pulled pork sandwich and it was incredible—tender, flavorful, and piled high. I'm excited to come back and try the sampler next time!

I’ve been coming to this place recently after a coworker introduced me to it. Right away, as you walk up, you can see their grills and smell the delicious aroma of meat cooking. No matter who is at the register, they always have a great attitude and are super friendly to every customer. On my first visit, I ordered the loaded fries, and they were amazing. The cheese sauce was smooth and flavorful, the pork was juicy, and the self-serve barbecue (available in multiple flavors) was fresh and tasty. There were a few pieces of fat mixed in, which is expected with pork, so I didn’t mind. The second time, I tried the pulled pork sandwich. Once again, the portion was generous, but this time, there were noticeably more fatty pieces. While I understand that some fat is inevitable, a little more t
