Bossier City
Joe Cobb's Bar-B-Q
This is one of those restaurants that you have to know about in order to find
it. It is a small, family-run place that just serves up some good food and
conversation. Your best bet, in my opinion anyway, is the ribs. Have them serve
them up with beans and potato salad or slaw, and then finish your meal off with
peach cobbler. Joe and Sue Cobb have been serving the folks in Bossier City
since 1952. And, not only is the food good, but you will enjoy Joe and Sue as
they engage in conversations with the local regulars as well as the occasional
visitor. I personally recommend this place. Located just off of I-20 on the
corner of Barksdale Boulevard and McCormick between Hamilton Road and Traffic
Street. Joe Cobb's, 203 McCormick, 221.6512.
