Jethro's Monthly Specials

Monthly SpecialsDid you know that Jethro's has a drink special for every night of the week?  There even some that go for the entire month.  Check out the calendar to the left to see what specials are going for this month.  My favorite is Tuesday with the 2 for one specials on wings.  Mmmm.  See you there!

Two for 1 wings are for dine-in only.  Specials may not be available during some events.  Check with your server or bartender.
 

Jethro's mentioned in America's Best BBQ 

Here's what the authors had to say about us.

"We've lived almost our whole lives in barbeque, traveling the country to participate in and judge contests, visiting restaurants in far-off places, writing books and articles, and talking to all kinds of people about barbeque.  Consequently, it was a real challenge to single out our top 100 places.  The following places are places we like to go, and we enjoy them, but for some reason or another they didn't make the list of 100.  Maybe they had an off day when we visited, or maybe we couldn't agree on them, but all have their fans, and it would be remiss of us not to mention them."

 

"JETHROS BBQ
3100 Forrest Ave.
Des Moines, IA 50311
Ardie's college roommate, The Rev. Ron Osborne, told us about this place, and we're glad he did!  Try the baby back ribs with the Carolina sauce and the smoked chicken with Alabama white sauce.  If you guessed from the name that the joint and menu are built on a hillbilly theme, you guessed right."

Jethro's is happy to be recognized by Cityview readers for our BBQ which we take great pride in preparing. Our competition quality, 100 percent wood-smoked meats include chicken, pork shoulders, beef briskets, home made sausages and of course ribs are a passion for us and we're happy that our fellow Des Moines residents enjoy as much as we do.
