This Converse, Indiana BBQ joint opened May 5, 2012. Let me tell you: it looks like something straight from the web pages of popular photo “pinning” site Pinterest. It’s very sharp. Just look at those light fixtures. I love it. There’s corrugated metal along the front of the counter and a section of the walls. The floors are wood, everything is painted very nicely, and it is very clean. There’s just a really nice atmosphere here.

Did I not yet mention that there is even a wine and beer menu? Now that is just fun. The way the inside looks, it was made to be the kind of place where you want to linger a little bit with good friends over good food and drinks. But the food is the star here as well it should be.

The Pulled Pork Wrap was memorable and definitely what I would recommend. In fact, I could go for one right about now. One look at the images from this Indiana town restaurant down below and I think you will, too.

Edited to Add: Since my visit, Jefferson Street Barbecue has made some changes. They are now offering local-sourced, sustainable meats and vegetables whenever possible. They have partnered with area farms, like Hunt Family Farm in Amboy, Travis Flora Farms in Flora, and Green River Greenhouse in Peru.
