We visited our Son in Birmingham, Jim and Nicks is his favorite bbq place. It was easy to see why; we loved it! I'm sorry we didnt try the Lemon pie. :( Thanks for the cheese Biscuit recipe.

You can't pay someone to slip it to you! I was able to find out one thing...That lemon pie is made fresh daily from Fresh squeeze lemons. There isn't a drop of canned/jarred lemon juice in it!! Oh and if you haven't had the Pecan Pie....IT'S A MUST AS WELL! I worked for Jim N Nicks for a couple of years and I can tell that recipe is impossible to get.

We drive out that way once a week to eat there. I oder something different each time we go. I have NEVER had a single meal that wasn't good (and their lemon aid is the BEST!!!!) I am a fan of Todd Wilbur also. I would love to see him make a book on ALL of Jim N' Nicks stuff. I'd buy a copy for everyone in my family if he did. Ok, I better go workout BEFORE I get to trying your copy-cat recipe! I can't wait to try them. Thanks for posting it! Jim N’ Nicks is my favorite resturant!

I'm not much of a sweet eater, but lemon cream pie's definitely give me cravings. The pictures looks fabulous!

The Salt Lick is overrated and is a fave of visitors and new Austin transplants and students. Their sauce has a bit too much sugar and oil in it, resulting in the only central TX bbq I've ever had with a sauce that's higher in calories than the meat. If there's a next time, try Louie Mueller's just north of Austin in Taylor, TX. A James Beard award winner, their meat (omg the pork ribs) is unmatched... and their mustard potato salad reminds me of my dad's German potato salad. However, I'm not a fan of their sausage. The best sausage comes from any bbq joint that has it shipped in from a central Texas sausage maker. That's probably why you can get great sausage when it's not actually sausage made on the premises. The best sides also come from joints with Southern/soul roots. Rudy's, Iron Works work too.. To go with just amazing sides, there are a couple of soul food restaurants that offer primarily just that. Hoover's for one. So it makes sense that this place in Birmingham would have great sides.
