We’re excited to kick off our first Lake Nona Farmer’s Market of the year — and even more excited to keep bringing barbecue home to our own backyard. 🤍🔥

The Lake Nona Farmer’s Market is all about supporting local makers and neighbors — from cakes and fresh juices to crafts and handmade goods — and we’re proud to be part of the regular vendor rotation alongside so many talented Lake Nona businesses.

If you’re looking for dinner, we’ve got you covered.
We’ll be serving up ribs, smoked chicken, pork belly, and all the barbecue goodness you know and love.

And yes… the potato salad will be there.
It’s not your usual potato salad — and you’ll just have to trust us on this one. 😉

Come say hi, support local, and let us handle dinner.
See you at the market! 🥩✨

✨ We’re back this weekend! ✨

After a much-needed break, BARBECUE By Chef Jared is back at Nona Adventure Park — serving barbecue from 11 AM until sell-out. We can’t wait to see you.
But the main focus this weekend goes beyond food.
 As we kick off the new year, let’s make space — in our closets and in our community.

🧥 Jacket Drive | January 16–18 ⏰ 3:00–6:00 PM 📍 Nona Adventure Park

We’re partnering with and to collect gently used jackets and winter clothing. If you have pieces you no longer wear, someone else could really use them this season.

We’ll have a collection box ready — just bring what you can, grab some barbecue, and help us give back.

Good food. Good neighbors. A good way to start the year.

🍖 Right behind the pork belly burnt ends… it’s the popular ribs.

They’re one of our most popular items — served piled high with rib bones on your platter.

This photo? It’s the less sexy one. 😅 The meat is so tender it falls off the bone before we can even get it to your plate.

They pair perfectly with our BBQ baked beans.

Messy, imperfect, and exactly how ribs should be.

Pork Belly Burnt Ends + Potato Salad

Our most ordered combination — and for good reason.
The pork belly burnt ends are glazed with our peach tea glaze, smoky, rich, and just sweet enough.
 The potato salad? Made à la minute, prepared fresh by order, not scooped from a tub.
Simple. Intentional. Cooked the way we like to eat.

📍 BARBECUE By Chef Jared ⏰ Open 11am until sell out

This weekend went from a market event… to catering… to an 18-person private Chef’s Table — and we loved every minute of it. ❤️

We were honored to be part of the annual “Hullidays,” bringing a 6-course dinner into their home.

This moment captured here: Chef Jared plating 36-month aged country ham and a slice of heritage cornbread, topped with homemade blackberry jam and foie gras mousse sourced from — because only the highest quality meat will do. This was the start of a beautiful dinner and an even better night.

If you’d like a dinner like this in your home, or want to join one of our community Chef’s Table events, we’d love to cook for you. 🔗 Link in bio to book.

Roadtrip Stop: Polleria Pablo — Athens, GA Hidden inside Angeles Janet Supermercado, Polleria Pablo has been serving Athens for years — long before TV shows and food writers discovered it. What started as a humble counter inside a neighborhood mercado gradually became a local institution. It’s built on the story that so many great American food places share: immigration, perseverance, and the grit of showing up every day to cook the food you grew up with.
 Families built this place. The community sustained it. And now people travel from across the South just to taste what they’ve been perfecting for decades.

And for anyone who knows Chef Jared, you know his all-time favorite food is tacos — which means our bar is high and our expectations are real. Polleria Pablo didn’t just meet that bar… they cleared it. The flavors are bold, layered, unapologetically authentic. Even the plates — what feels like terra cotta, what feels traditional — tell you the food has a story.

This spot was also featured in TrueSouth’s Athens episode, and for good reason. doesn’t chase trends; they chase truth. They go where culture, community, and history intersect over food. Polleria Pablo is exactly that.

It’s an honor to take roadtrips like this, following in TrueSouth’s footsteps, learning the stories behind the food, and meeting the people who make it all possible.

And this stop challenged us in the best way. It made us ask ourselves: If you take away our beautiful lakeside location, our plating, our social media — are we delivering food with the same heart, the same consistency, the same uncompromising quality as Polleria Pablo?
 Can we maintain that level of commitment for even half as long as they’ve been doing it?
These are the kinds of places that reset your standards. And we’re grateful for that.
