    Ok the food is amazing! I love literally everything there. Ive had it all over the span of a few…read morevisits. Well priced for the quality! Definitely worth it. I can't really pick a favorite meat but maybe it's between the turkey and the brisket. The Texas twinkies... my boyfriend is OBSESSED. I buy them to surprise him with when I want to make his day. The service is prompt, girls could use a little more enthusiasm, I get it, you're at work. But the poker face makes you feel like it's definitely a transaction and not an experience. The restaurant itself is quaint but very cute and space is utilized nicely. I did expect my turkey sandwich to come with the white bear sauce as it's pictured and advertised with. Came with barbecue instead, I was sad lol.

    I had this place bookmarked and was heading back from the hardware store around dinner time one…read moreweekend, so I decided to stop by. The place wasn't crowded, but did have plenty of people inside either waiting for orders or eating at some of the handful of tables. I looked at the big menu display screens and then placed my order at the counter with the nice woman who works there. I had the brisket plate with chili and corn bread as my sides. The brisket (some fatty, some lean so I could try their idea of both) was cooked well and had a good smoke ring. The smoke flavor wasn't as strong as I prefer, but different people have different ideas and less is more when you're cooking for a crowd, so I respect that. Their barbecue sauce (the red one -- I don't put yellow sauce on brisket -- had a good flavor that complemented the brisket's flavor rather than overpowering it.) As for the sides, the chili was OK, but not something that I would order again. I like chili and was curious. Curiosity satisfied. The corn bread was moist and that middle-of-the-road between sweet and savory that is common in much of Texas (at least the parts I have visited). I like mine a little more sweet, but, like the brisket, I am a believer in getting the texture right first. Be aware if you are a fan of the sweet corn breads.

    Our local barbecue place was out of brisket, so we decided to make the drive out here after seeing…read morethis spot on social media. I'm so glad we did! This place was absolutely great. They had fantastic live music and a fresh, inviting atmosphere inside a beautifully rustic location. While the prices were a little steep, it was entirely worth it. Their unique, house-made barbecue sauces tasted incredible--I especially loved the red BBQ sauce. On top of that, they are one of the only places around that serves cheesy potatoes, and honestly, that side dish alone will keep me coming back! The service was also top-notch; our table was consistently cleared of finished dishes throughout the meal. My only suggestion for improvement would be to add a garden salad or some kind of vegetable option as a side choice. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience and we will definitely be back!

    I'm giving this three stars because it's mixed review. I know AZ is not the South and I can't…read moreexpect authentic Texas or Georgia-style BBQ. The good: the brisket is great. I asked for wet and they gave it to me. It was flavorful, moist, and so good. The turkey had a great smoke flavor. The Texas Twinkie was warm from the jalapeño and I love a good jalapeño! The not so great: everything was sweet. The turkey had a sweet bark, the bacon on the Twinkie was sweet, the sauces are extremely sweet, and the pickled onion and pickles were sweet. The cornbread was dry and sweet. Just a lot of one flavor profile. We didn't try the sides (lots of starch) but green veggies like green beans, collards, or similar would be a welcome addition to the menu.
