Joshy’s BBQ

Joshy's BBQ is an American low-and-slow smoker operation at 246 Wellington Street, South Launceston. It runs as a food stand with outdoor seating, which makes it an easy call with a dog beside you. Come for the brisket, stay because there is nowhere your dog is unwelcome.

The dog setup. Because it is a food truck with outdoor standing and seating, dogs on-leash are fine right alongside you while you order and eat. There is usually plenty of room on the gravel forecourt. There is no dog menu or bowls provided, so bring your own water, which matters on a warm day when the smokers are running.

Good to know. The draw is the slow-smoked brisket, consistently the standout, plus pork and jalapeno sausage, loaded fries topped with brisket or pulled pork, and Texas-style platters. It trades Wednesday to Sunday, roughly 11am to 8pm, though hours can shift so check before a special trip.

Getting there. The address is 246 Wellington Street, on a main arterial road with off-street parking near the stand. If you have a large vehicle or trailer, park on the street, as the gravel area is set up for quick turnover.

Nearby with the dogs. Punchbowl Reserve is a short drive away for a proper walk on the trails, and the surrounding South Launceston streets suit a shorter post-meal stroll to walk off the fries.
