Default JJ on the Button behind a Min-Raise

Not going to post a hand history because it's a fairly simple question...
Level 2, Blinds 15/30, and it's folded to MP who minraises to 60 (second time he minraises, the first time he took down the pot on a AKx flop and didn't show), then folded to me on the button with JJ. I didn't want the blinds getting in cheap with something like Q8s, so I decided to make it 150 to go. Much to my chagrin, MP pushed all in and I had to muck my jeffries.

Would it have been a better idea to call and hope the blinds fold to the minraise or hope I flop a set? Fold to the minraise? Or was this the best line to take?

I realize that this wasn't the biggest hand in the world, but I find I have a difficult time playing after minraises with marginal hands that don't want multi-way pots, but also can't stand a reraise.

Any help is appreciated,
Remus
