Craving authentic Texas-style barbecue without leaving Singapore? Look no further than Jett Barbecue, a delivery-only BBQ joint that’s been making waves with its mouthwatering smoked beef ribs. Founded by NTU graduate Chua Jett Yong, this homegrown brand brings the heart of Texas to your table.
The Star: USDA Prime Beef Dino Ribs
At the heart of Jett Barbecue’s menu is the USDA Prime Beef Dino Rib Set, priced at $190, inclusive of delivery. Each set includes:
- Two bone-in USDA Prime beef ribs (approximately 1kg)
- House-made barbecue sauces: a sweet-tangy smoky BBQ sauce and a creamy horseradish sauce
- Sides: a pint each of buttery mashed potatoes and lime-infused coleslaw
- Pickles and arugula to balance the rich flavours as it can get cloying halfway through the meal
These ribs are smoked for up to 14 hours using post-oak wood imported from Texas, resulting in ultra-tender, juicy meat that falls off the bone. The meticulous smoking process ensures a deep, smoky flavor with a thin layer of bark formed from the rub that’s hard to find elsewhere in Singapore.
The mashed potatoes were creamy and buttery but the coleslaw was a tad on the heavier side and didn’t work for us.
From Passion to Pitmaster
Jett’s journey began at the age of 14 after a family trip to the U.S. ignited his passion for American barbecue. Starting as a home-based business in 2021, he quickly gained a loyal following. To perfect his craft, Jett traveled to Texas to train with renowned pitmasters and invested in two 800-gallon custom-built offset smokers from Moberg Smokers, costing around $80,000. These smokers, along with imported post-oak logs, are the backbone of his operation.
Ordering & Availability
Jett Barbecue operates on a pre-order basis, with slots released on the third Sunday of each month at 8 PM. Deliveries are available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Given the high demand and limited availability, it’s advisable to book early.
If you’re seeking an authentic Texas barbecue experience in Singapore, Jett Barbecue delivers in every sense. From the meticulously smoked beef ribs to the thoughtfully crafted sides, it’s a feast that’s worth every penny. Perfect for special occasions or when you’re simply craving top-notch barbecue at home.
