West Shore meat lovers are in luck with Jones BBQ opening its smokers and doors in its new Langford location for the first time Wednesday (Oct. 5).

Co-owner Chris Jones said the restaurant is unique with its layout and cooking approach. Two smokers were built out of 1,000-gallon propane tanks and the kitchen was built out of a shipping container. That layout was complicated and took some time to figure out, with the opening being delayed at least once.

B次元官网网址淲hen youB次元官网网址檙e building a restaurant, sometimes it takes a lot longer than usual. But sometimes, when things take a really long time, you also build that anticipation of our opening from people that have been waiting for a long time. WeB次元官网网址檝e had a really strong response.B次元官网网址�

Jones grew up in Langford and had been eyeing a West Shore expansion for several years. He urged residents keen for some ribs or brisket to come early in the day to avoid missing out.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 OK that we sell out. ThatB次元官网网址檚 intentionalB次元官网网址� because if we sell out every day, that means our food is fresh every day. If you go to a barbecue place, and itB次元官网网址檚 the end of the day, and they have everything all the time every day, that means that theyB次元官网网址檙e reheating products, and thatB次元官网网址檚 something we donB次元官网网址檛 do. ItB次元官网网址檚 fresh every day until itB次元官网网址檚 all sold out. ThatB次元官网网址檚 kind of our model.B次元官网网址�

The new restaurant is located at 731 Goldstream Ave.
