None. My favorite first jobAt Jim ‘N Nick's, our core values focus on appreciation, respect and trust for all people. We are committed to living these values in how we treat our guests, our employees, and the communities in which we operate.
We celebrate and support the unique qualities of every person with whom we interact and want all to feel included and valued in our Jim ‘N Nick’s Family.
It all began in 1985 in a reclaimed old pizza restaurant on Clairmont Avenue in Birmingham, AL. The formula was simple. Celebrate the heritage of revered bar-b-q masters, cut no corners on the menu, and serve the whole community like family.
That philosophy allowed us to create something special. An authentic bar-b-q restaurant with chefs and pitmasters. A nod to our past recipes, with eyes towards the future. Sit down dining on one hand, and a drive-through on the other. No freezers, no microwaves, and no shortcuts. 12-hour slow-smoked pork and beef, but served real fast. A celebration of Alabama, but a reverence for the bar-b-q tradition across the South.
It’s the kind of place that only happens when you don’t follow the crowd, but instead follow your heart, trust your gut, and simply do things the hard way.
Today, Jim ‘N Nick’s has become an icon of the bar-b-q community. One bite and you’ll understand why, there’s only one Jim ‘N Nick’s.
Community isn’t just where we live. It’s who we are. Otherwise, we wouldn’t love Bar-B-Q — preparing it, serving it, and eating it — as much as we do. Because Bar-B-Q is all about bringing people together, and in a very real way, keeping them together. Jim ‘N Nick’s is proud to be a part of every community we live in, and we’re equally proud to give back by supporting local organizations and events. Let’s see how we can help yours.
Jim ‘N Nick’s is a celebration of not only barbecue, but what it means to experience barbecue. Because it’s not just about eating slow-smoked meat. It’s about gathering with friends, family and neighbors for a shared, sacred moment. It’s about making memories you can savor for life.
