The prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of food, and thesetup was clean and well organized despite being a food  truck. I also appreciated the quick service, even during a busy event, which shows they handle orders efficiently. Kingpin Food Truck don't miss. Ribs, chicken, hot links, collard greens, and bread--everything was right. I've never been to a rib spot where the whole menu was on point. I'm dead serious when I say I'm scared to cook again. That's how good it was. I'm already looking for them every Friday. You can't go wrong with Kingpin. This is like yo momma's and yo grandma's cooking--if they can cook. You know the type. Real comfort food, done the right way. Kingpin is the bomb. No debate. read more

Let me first start off by saying, I am a very impatient person when it comes to waiting in line especially in the heat. I do believe there is possibly a faster process for them when it comes to ordering. But I do understand they don't want the kitchen to be behind. I pulled up at 6:57 and there was a line maybe about eight people that were in front of me in the line but I didn't think I was going to be waiting an hour before I even ordered my food. The price is actually a decent price. The young lady that takes your order is very sweet and she was sure to greet everybody with a smile. The food I have absolutely no complaints at all. It was worth the wait. I give them a 10 out of 10. I will definitely be back in the future for more. read more

Great food. Solid BBq. Had the hot links, chicken and pork. All solid choices. Sweet potatoes fish a little too sweet for me but flavor is there. Mac and cheese was solid as were the fries. Will definitely go again. Worth it. Pricing is amazing for what they offer. read more

My husband and I tried Kingpin after following them on IG for a few months and their food did NOT disappoint. I ordered their Jumbo Shrimp Mac & Cheese with a hot link and my husband order their beef tips w/waffle fries and turkey leg w/ Cajun shrimp and sauce. It was delicious! The turkey leg was literally fall off the bone, delicious and flavorful. I didn't even get a chance to take a picture of it. The Mac and cheese was a nice consistency and came with so many shrimp. I do wish they had an option to add the Cajun sauce/shrimp that came on the turkey leg to the Mac and cheese because they were also delicious! I personally like spice and heat with my BBQ so I would've liked a little more kick to my hot link. But the flavors are incredible, the meat was nicely cooked and a little red hots did the trick nicely. For those who prefer less heat, their bbq sauce is a traditional sweet/tangy and also very good. The amount of food given is exceptionally generous for the price. We ended up needing to take the beef tips and some of the turkey leg home. They saved well even the next day and we will definitely be returning. Some advice for first timers: come expecting a line and to wait a bit. Good food takes time so get there early! We came right at open and they had a line of 10-15 people already waiting. Given the limited space and manpower they do pause at times to catch up on orders. But that being said, the wait is well worth it! read more

Kingpin BBQ - Shrimp Mac and Cheese Plate with Hot link and Texas Toast - Barbeque Near Me

My cousin hyped this place up so much so I was excited to try it. She brought me a plate that had ribs, chicken, a hot link, greens, and garlic toast. The garlic toast was inedible because it was extremely soggy from being packaged with the rest of the food. The greens lacked flavor in my opinion. The chicken was decent and the hot link was overcooked. The ribs were great. The bbq sauce itself, not so much. It was missing something. So if I ever come across this place myself, I'd probably only get the ribs and maybe try the Mac and cheese since it always looks good on IG. I have no opinion about service or ambiance since I didn't experience it. read more

Meats were good. Mac salad was mediocre. Staff was kind. 3/5 because it was good but not a wow.

Best BBQ I have ever eaten! So tender and very delicious! No wonder they sell out because everyone wants it. Everything on their menu is delicious and reasonably price. Excellent service and customer service! All sides are equally delicious . Off the hook BBQ. read more

There BBQ is delicious! They know how to cook greens! The ribs was so damn tender and their BBQ sauce is delicious!

The food is so good that it is worth the wait. I will definitely be trying this place again read more

So, on their FB and IG they advertised that they'd be available at the Hilton hotel on 16th at and Northern this past Monday. Even on their website, they posted the menu for that day. A BUNCH of disappointed people arrive only to discover that they were hired for a private event. So what the hell? Now, they did offer to serve non event goers but to their very limited menu. No ribs, no mac, no collard greens, just a bare bones menu. Whatever, ordered something just so that I dont go home empty and hangry. Opted for their 2 meat plate (pulled pork, hot link, waffle fries as the side, and a slice of TX toast). Good? Sure. Worth all this hype all these damn AZ food influencers be giving them? I don't think so. Hesitant to even hunt them down again even if their ribs are available. Just overall, an underwhelming and annoying experience. Why publicly advertise your location somewhere and post a false menu? Oh FFS. read more

Kingpin BBQ - Limited menu. Everything X'd off. Despite advertising on all their socials and even posting full menu on their website - Barbeque Near Me

Really good bbq some of the best I've had 10/10 would definitely be coming back it was tender and flavorful

The food is great and the owners, staff are awesome. I would recommend this place to everyone.

I just had their ribs, chicken, hot links, collard greens and bread. All of my food was delicious. Everything was very tasty. I will be looking for their food truck in the east valley and telling my friends to try Kingpin BBQ Food Truck. read more

Food was so DAMN GOOD! I can't wait to go back. Ate off my plate for two day. You gotta try this place!

I'm feeling a little mixed on this review. It's a little expense 18-28 per person, but it's 2 days' worth of food. The food is good but pretty standard for a BBQ. Service was ok, but not excellent. Here is my issue, yes choose to stand in a long line, but when I ordered I was told 10-12 min; it was over 22. If I could have gotten my money back I would have left. They take phone orders and app orders and they go in before waiting in line orders. Idk exactly what their system is but when you have 30 min don't go. read more

Jimmy, (the owner) is just wonderful. He was catering an event in our community and we got to his food truck as he was closing. He was so kind and made us a plate and said God bless you and gave us the most delicious, homemade, love as the main ingredient plate of food you've ever tasted. Thank you Jimmy for your kindness and generosity. We will be looking for you around town to come try some more of your delicious food! Coco and Lisa. read more

With inflation and it being a foot truck, I was worried about the portions and the pricing. Wow! I was full from a two meat combo plate. The ribs were juicy and sausage was pretty darn good. It was 21 in total after tip. I even thought about saving the food for later, that's how full I was. I underestimated the portions. I would definitely want to eat here again, but I'm going to have to stalk them on social media to find where they park next time. Keep it up! read more

We experienced Kingpin for the first time during the 2022 Scottsdale Jazz Festival. Out of all the food trucks this was the most popular. My husband was able to treat himself to a 3 rib plate. The menu was pretty sparse. The event started at 3pm and pretty much most of the menu wasn't available. It wasn't that busy. Maybe they just didn't have a lot of options that night. They were really good and hit the spot he said. read more

This is my second time experiencing the flavors of king pin BBQ and let me say i am still in awe! The shrimp mac&cheese and hot link bowl is amazing. The Texas toast is perfect and the customer service is that of 10 stars. I literally bought a ticket to enter the botanical gardens where they were just to get another taste. no matter where they are posted up they bring a rich culture, energy and flavor to the table. I am happy we have this gem here in Phoenix. Clean, friendly and tasty! Looking forward to my next plate! read more

I've been to so many bbq places in AZ nobody gets it right like kingpins! Food truck comes to my work every few weeks. Food is always on point! Pork sandwich cooked to perfection. Always so soft.

This place is a must to check out if you want good service & Great bbq! read more

I follow this truck as often as I can! Some of the best BBQ I've had. The sides are also very tasty.

Wow! I just had my first experience with Kingpin BBQ. Their food truck supplied dinner for our company employees Sunday and I received outstanding feedback. About 65-70 employees were served and I received feed back all evening asking to please ask the company to book them again. The melt in your mouth delicious BBQ ribs, pulled pork, and chicken were so well seasoned and tender. The sides were delicious. I know because I tried almost everything on the menu! I could eat a bucket of those collard greens. They have got seasonings I've never experienced. Tasty, Tasty, Tasty! I'm hooked! read more

Best BBQ ever! Jimmy is the BBQ Man. The pulled pork was juicy and tender along with the ribs they just melted as soon as you put them in your mouth falling off the bone... the chicken was tender the macaroni and cheese creamy cheesy and delicious.

This was delicious. Between four people we tried the pulled pork, smoked chicken, cole slaw, waffle fries, mac and cheese, and sweet potato casserole. All of it was SO good.

We are full and satisfied! read more
