Yes Sir! Si Senor (sorry, I don't know how to put the squiggly thing above the "n" in Senor) is…read moreperfectly perfect. I mean, the food is wonderfully delicious! I ordered a couple of Chili Rellenos with rice and beans. These are Hatch chilies my good readers. They were unbelievably good. You can't match the Hatch when it comes to chilies. There has to be something in the dirt that makes them superior to any other. I should pick some of that up and sprinkle it on my lawn where the gardener killed the grass. Nope, bad idea. The fricken gophers would be in heaven. The chips and salsa are no slouch either. You get plenty of chips and four different salsas to tempt you. Careful though, the green one has a kick. When asked what kind of sauce I'd like on the rellenos, I told the server, NOT THE GREEN ONE! She laughed and said that they have a mild version. I opted for that. It was perfect for blanketing the entree. I didn't get dessert, cause the hotel where I was staying had a sign by the front desk stating that fresh baked cookies will be served. Well, that was a bust. The cookie lady said that the power where she bakes was out. So no cookies. I guess the old saying is true. It's better to have Flan in the hand than cookies on a sign. Quick Tip: Try to get seated by the indoor fountain. The pleasant sound of the trickling water will compliment your experience. That is unless you've been drinking a few beers. Then it may not be the trickling sound from the fountain that you're hearing.

I'll keep this short and put my Yelp flag proudly in the ground right here in Cloudcroft, New Mexico. As somebody who lives in Tennessee and travels regularly all across the map. I think that Mad Jack's may be the best BBQ I've had in the entire US (full stop). This is indeed the barbecue spot you've been looking for! There is one reason alone that I walked away mad from my experience at Jack's. It was the realization that this incredible establishment is so far away from me and now all other barbecue spots will now pale in comparison. Well played, Jack... well played. ------------------------------ Experience Grade: Ambience: A+ Service / Staff: A+ Barbecue: A++

She had my mouth watering talking about brisket quesadillas and brisket baked potatoes. It was a little disappointing they didn't have these items, but they did have great BBQ, a good amount of seating, and patio dining with a beautiful view. Mom ordered a pulled pork sandwich, Pops got a sliced brisket sandwich, and my little buddy and I shared half a smoked chicken, chopped brisket, mac and cheese, and corn on the cob. The chopped brisket was definitely the star item on the table. My little buddy usually dislikes any kind of good gourmet mac and cheese, but he ate the whole bowl. The chicken was also really good. I loved the smoked flavor it had. The service was good and the food came out really quick. I think they should add some really good rolls and maybe four or five unique items to their menu.

First of all, I am from Washington and was just visiting the place, but I've always seen and heard…read moreof those speculations on how Texas Bbq is always the best. I came to this place with high expectations and it definitely did not dissapoint. The food was bussin' and the brisket was one of the best I've ever had. It was very juicy and flavorful and did not really have the need to put sauce in it. Their creamed corn is also one of my favorite for sides and I still dream of it up until this night. The prices were a little bit on the higher side considering that Ruidoso average salary is on the lower side, but it's still kind of affordable. Parking was also easy. However, the 2nd time I went here which was just a week ago, I ordered pretty much the same thing that I got the last time, but a lot of things has changed. The menu has increased 2 dollars per item, considering I visited just last 6 months ago, that is a heft increase. The meat also was not as juicy or seasoned anymore. The service was still great but the food has changed and I think that quality control is something that needs to be prioritized. Other than that, would still recommend this place, maybe just go on an early morning or late evening when they are not in a rush.

I'm not sure why all the bad reviews. Usually yelp ratings are pretty spot on. This is definitely…read morethe exception to the rule. Let me start out by saying I consider myself a barbecue snob. Born and raised in the Carolinas, Barbecue is Part of my DNA. My wife got sausage and pulled pork along with a nice side of beans and potato salad. I ordered pulled pork ribs along with potato salad and macaroni and cheese. Everything was absolutely fantastic. The macaroni and potato salad were made from scratch and absolutely delicious. The meat was very moist and had an awesome flavor they really didn't require sauce unless that's your thing. The portions were plentiful and the service excellent. My only needs improvement area would be the sweet tea. It definitely wasn't made in house but the food more than made up for that part. Try it out you won't be disappointed!

The side dishes were just as impressive as the meats! Hard to believe this all started because a friend asked Jim to make some BBQ for his birthday party! I want to say thank you for the hospitality and wonderful food you shared with us we had a wonderful lunch in restaurant and took the leftovers home for dinner with our selection of our favorite sauces.

We ordered a brisket plate that was over $30 w/tip...so we were expecting good food for that price. This was the worst bbq I've ever had. Normally a brisket plate is sliced brisket w 2 sides plus bread and pickles & onions, not what we were served. They gave us chopped up meat covered in bbq sauce w potato salad and beans that tasted like they came from Walmart or other prepackaged container of sides. The meat was barely warm and it did not taste freshly smoked and it was covered in sauce that was so sweet and reminded me of bottled sauce. Now I know why there is never anyone there and locals don't mention it when talking about food trucks in the area. Will not try again. It is sad bc they have a fantastic location right there between a dispensary & bar on the hwy by Ski Run.
