The Joint has been smoking barbecue on one-of-a-kind custom pits in Bywater since 2004, tucked onto Mazant Street away from the neighborhood's busier corridors. The setup stays simple: a courtyard out back, cocktails and frozen drinks alongside draft beer, and a kitchen turning out slow-smoked barbecue including a house-made pastrami.
Catering is part of the operation too, with packages built for parties, corporate events, and other gatherings.
