    brisket
    Claire C.

    One of the best BBQ in States! We've been here twice, the brisket is definitely the best I've ever had, so tender and juicy. Don't sleep on their beef short rib, it will fall apart from the bone, so good. I've tried their port belly, it tasted like thick cut bacon, a little bit on the sweeter side. That said, the sides were just okay and didn't stand out as much as the meats. The line can get pretty long, but it moves quickly. Highly recommend!

    As I sit here on my lunch break eating the last half of the last Green Chile Burrito I bought, I am saddened that Little Miss BBQ Sunnyslope location is not near me, lol!! People come here for the meats: brisket, ribs, pulled pork, BUT!!! Have you had this GREEN CHILE BURRITO?! I beg you to try it if you have not... most people don't know they even have it, but luckily, for my coworker and I, Director of Operations Matt, walked up to us as we dined in last Wednesday and let us sample the Green Chile. As most of you know, I can't hang when it comes to spicy foods, but this chile is THE EXCEPTION (even though it's only "mildly" spicy). We each ordered the 2 meat plate, but we were so appreciative of the sample he gave us, otherwise we would never have known about it. We ended up ordering 2 burritos for our lunch the very next day!! You can also add cheese to it! I went in again for the 3rd day in a row on Friday, since I'm not sure when I'll work in that area again (I was 10 min away all last week)!! I asked my boss if I could work there on Mondays and Fridays, that's how good this burrito is!! They also have a MEAN Pecan Pie. It's called Bekke's Smoked Pecan Pie and it too, is a must try item! Matt told us it's a secret recipe from one of their employees and the crusts are hand pressed daily. Using a machine is just NOT the same, and I believe it! Since I am not sure when I'll make my way back there, I also bought another pie on Friday. So far, I've only had 1 slice because I need to ration accordingly! Prior to my 3 visits last week, I went to this location last July, when a friend was visiting from out of town. The place is clean and welcoming, and they have the best customer service! On Thursday and Friday when I ordered online and picked up, my orders were ready before the estimated pick up time! Mark was at the pick up window both times and he rocks!! I had forgotten to ask for the Banana Pudding I ordered on Wednesday when we dined in. I called as I drove home, realizing I left without it. Amanda was super friendly when she answered the phone and assured me I would have it when I came the next day. Mark delivered and had it in my bag the next day when I picked up our burritos. Service with a smile is what you'll get here! You cannot go wrong no matter what you order here! The meats are absolutely perfect and the flavor profile on everything is mind-blowing! Do yourself a favor and ask for the Green Chile anything next time you're here. Tell them I sent you! Don't sleep on the Banana Pudding or Bekke's Smoked Pecan Pie, either. Something about that smoking process makes the pie stand out from every other pecan pie you've ever tasted, trust me. It's also NOT super sweet like you're probably used to. If you call in, you can't place an order by phone, so do it online and you'll get a text with an estimated time of pick up. You can skip the line inside, too. Just walk up to the pick up window and you're good to go when you ring the little doorbell. There is plenty of parking outside and they even have a large patio space should you choose to dine outside. Thank you, Matt, Mark, Amanda and the rest of the crew at Little Miss BBS Sunnyslope for such a pleasant experience every single time!! I will be back for sure! Don't forget to try the Prickly Pear Lemonade (spiked with vodka -- my choice of poison)! enJOY!!

    Turkey and Pork Belly Burnt Ends turkey and burnt ends

    Best BBQ place in Phoenix! I highly recommend. A little pricey but all bbq places are now. Went there twice, once to dine in and tonight got it to go. Both were amazing! Got there around a half hour before closing and the line was out the door. Definitely worth the wait. So far I have tried the pork belly burnt ends (a little too salty for my taste), the turkey (yum!!), and the house sausage (awesome). Mac and cheese and the potato salad are very good too. The Thumb out in Scottsdale was my favorite but now this place is. Besides, the Thumb always runs out of bbq!

    Box all the food came packed in

    Visiting from out of town for my son's 5th bday and Father's Day and found this place from Eater's list of best food in Phoenix and it didn't disappoint. Also found out later that it made "Texas Monthly's Best BBQ outside Texas" list. Once I found out they were doing preorders for FD, I knew what our meal for the day was going to be. Ended up ordering 3 different types of BBQ for our group of 7; brisket, beef ribs, and pork ribs. Each one was delicious! Brisket included cuts from both the flat and point which delicious without sauce. Personally, good brisket doesn't need sauce. Beef Dino ribs were super good too! Pork ribs came sauced perfectly and were perfect amount of tender. First place I've been to that did all types of BBQ that well. We ended up doing a pick up order and it couldn't have been easier. They had a long line for dine in but had a separate spot for preorders which was super easy. We showed up a little bit earlier than our scheduled pick up time but once our order was ready everything came packed perfectly in a box. If you're looking for good BBQ in Phoenix this place is a must!

    Pork Ribs (By the Pound), side of Mac and side of potatoes
    Morgan H.

    If you see a long line, don't let that scare you away from this place. We waited about an hour and honestly felt like it was worth it. While we were waiting, someone even came around with samples, which definitely made the line more manageable. When we finally ordered, we got the two-meat plate with ribs and brisket, plus a side of the house sausage. I'd highly recommend adding the sausage, it ended up being my favorite out of everything we tried. There's also ample seating (both indoor and outdoor). Overall, I'd definitely come back again if I were visiting the area.

    Never heard of this place until a recent mainstream media report they were voted by a rush of Yelp app users rating them number one. So, we made a specific trip to dine here. It's all good, but not the best by any means. If I ever find myself in that area again I'd go back, but it's not good enough to go out of the way. Had the two meat platter with pork short ribs and sliced brisket with beans and potato salad as sides. The potato salad was average, nothing special, but good enough. Same for the beans; yes, there was meat in it, but not much of it. The pork rib was good, tender enough. Now, the sliced brisket was VERY good. Nicely smoked/cooked, very tender. You have a choice of three sauces all in plastic squeeze bottles at your table. I tried them all [spicy, house (sweet) and mustard]. All three were as good as you would get anywhere else. It's counter service only and they have ample inside and outside seating. Plenty of parking.

    This is still one of the best bbq I've had west of Texas. They deserve a Michelin Star. The brisket bark is amazing, the meat is perfectly marbled, but not overly fatty, and the seasoning makes the meat so flavorful. The pulled pork is also among the best ever. It's tender, juicy, and has deep seasoned smoky flavor.

    Sarah D.

    This place came highly recommended, so we decided to check it out. My partner and I did the two meat platter - I chose pork belly burnt ends and chopped brisket and double grits (you get choice of two sides.) My partner got the jalapeño cheddar sausage, sliced brisket and added the other sausage and double mac-and-cheese. We shared our plates with each other and we both agreed that the sliced brisket was the best - it was so delicious; melted in your mouth like butter, the fatty part was so good. The worst thing we had was the pork belly burnt ends- it was super tough, and we skipped on them. The grits were good and the mac-and-cheese was heavenly. Also, the service was really great! Overall, it was a good place to eat at. It definitely doesn't beat Oklahoma or Texas barbecue, but it was nice to check out.

    It's the pits
    Tom E.

    This place is The Pits, but in the best way possible. We took home a quart each of beans plus mac and cheese. Kraft is Not the cheesiest. My loyal Food Patrol of regular observers know we spent some days in Sunnyslope tending to family business. Little Miss BBQ was a refueling stop. The last time we stopped in for a meal there was no meal. The goods were gone, eaten by an eager, hungry, horde. March 31, 2026 at 3 p.m. They were open, fully stocked. 1962 was the year my Dad was sent to Oklahoma to teach Air Forces from across the globe how to keep the engines of their nuke-tipped Intercontinental Ballistic Missles prepped and ready in case Boom Moment arrived. We lived to the south in Vernon, Texas where I learned the culinary tradition of Moon Pies and RC Cola, or Dr. Pepper. I also had my first meal of Texas Bar B Que. That set my taste for BBQ Brisket and BBQ beans; sweet, smoky and tender. I've since dined in Lufkin, Nacogdoches, Abilene and Merkel. We hit Mr. B's fabulously delicious BBQ near Harper's Ferry, VA. Another year we went on to BBQ in St Louis; Jonesboro, Arkansas; and Memphis, Tennesee. Locally, Bobby Q, My Mother's, TexAz and others I cannot remember. A BBQ universe of flavor, texture, and squirt-on supplemental sauces. BBQ is a very personal pitmaster production, with very personal diner's tastes. The BBQ firing squad has me against a wall, asking me if I want a smoked rib before I die for not writing much about Little Miss BBQ. I'll take the BBQ shack between Merkel and Blair, Texas. I kept going back by myself, yhen with groups of people, always returning in my memory List of BBQ Favorites. That Hole on the Plains and the town of my BBQ initiation, Vernon. Little Miss BBQ is a very cool place. It is worth a visit for the architecture alone. The pits are out the window as you enter the doors and hook a left to the BBQ ride crowd control railing. Menu is on the wall, on at least two spots. The northwest corner has a takeout counter. We ordered brisket sandwich and beans. The brisket was further flavored choosing one or more of the three sauces: sweet hot ish BBQ, sweet mustard sauce and one more flavor. My top taste of the meal was prickly pear lemonade. Going back for a refill I found 2/3 lemonade and 1/3 prickly pear made my perfect BBQ beverage. The peppery beans with another serving of pulled meat mixed in improved on my palate with sweet sauce added. The mustard sauce was recommended for our sandwich. It was a good addition. Will the family return here to dine? I'll write another review when we come back.

    West Texas BBQ. Good. Pricey. Quality cuts. Oh mmmmmmmy. I had smoked turkey and a pork rib. Spouse had the brisket. Sides were jalapeño and cheese grits, cole slaw and BBQ pork beans. Grits was too cheesy and rich for me. The rest, 10/10. Not cheap but worth every calorie and dime.

    Brisket and cheddar jalapeño sausages, ranch style beans
    Wil L.

    This place is THE go to for BBQ. Brisket is extremely tender with the perfect amount of smoke evident from the smoke ring. The cheddar sausages are has the right snap from the casing with the cheddar cheese just oozing out. Staff is always super friendly and restaurant immaculately clean. I always recommend LMB as the best in Phoenix anywhere west of Texas.

    Leah G.

    Ordered the 2-meat plate with brisket and pork spare ribs, plus a 1 lb beef short rib! All the meats were fall-off-the-bone tender with great flavor, and they definitely don't need any sauce to taste amazing--which was perfect for me since I don't usually like BBQ sauce. The sides were solid too, though the Mac and cheese was a bit mushy, as if it had been sitting for a while, but it was still good. The staff was super friendly and nice, and the space itself is great--the outdoor seating looks super comfy, and the inside was cool and clean!

    3 beef ribs and 2 lbs of fatty beef. 220$ wild huh.
    Adam W.

    Food is excellent. Service was great very welcoming and generous with answering and accommodating all our needs. Ambiance is relaxing and comfortable. Also 250 with one beer and fountain drinks. You decide :)

    The sausage with two sides ( jalapeño cheddar grit and cole slaw). Pulled pork with yummy beans and creamy mac and cheese.

    Is pork belly available everyday at this location?

    When it is, get there early cuz they only make limited amounts and once it's gone it's gone !!!

    What are the typical wait times for lunch? How early should we plan on arriving mid-week?

    If you go right in the middle of lunch (11:30-1:30) plan on waiting in line anywhere from 5 minutes to 20 minutes. It's not nearly as insane as the original location.

    How early should I get there?

    I would suggest close to when they open to make sure they have the full menu available. A few months ago when I went around 2p on sat they were running out of their more popular items and there was still ~ 30min wait.

    Am I going to have any problems getting in on a Thursday evening?

    5:00PM - No Problem! 6:00PM - Probably gonna wait for a while. 7:00PM - Waiting and possible… 

    Do they only sell the green chili burritos on monday or do they sell bbq as well?

    Only burritos, no bbq on Monday....

    I've been to the Tempe location, but need some tips for the Sunnyslope Spot. If you're going for dinner, do they restock their meats at 4 p.m.? What time do you recommend lining up for a 4 p.m. entry? Is there a good shot at securing indoor seating?

    It not as bad as Tempe. You can get in without a line until about 5:00PM.

    Planning on visiting on a Sunday. Do they run out of items earlier on Sundays?

    Absolutely. They are open earlier hours so they would always run out earlier but if you try to go there around 1pm they won't have much left.

    Does this location give out line tickets like the University location?

    No, been there a few times now and nothing like that.

    If you go later in the evening on a Friday are they sold out of a lot of options?

    Likely so.

That brisket was so moist and perfectly seasoned...gosh it was so good! The pulled pork was fantastic as well. The potato salad was great and definitely made on-site, not from a bag. The beans were really good too. I was really impressed with their offerings and will definitely go back on my next trip to Arizona.

Had a good score (4.7) so we decided to give it a shot Nice place inside. Decorated with veterans in mind. Has a similar setup to Rudy's where you order/pay up front and they call you up when it's ready. Was kind of worried because the place didn't smell like bbq. Ordered the turkey and jalapeno sausage with a side of bbq beans. Has a selection of six different bbq sauces at the table. I wasn't too impressed with any of them. There is a mustard sauce up by the drinks that was pretty tasty tho. The turkey was dry. The sausage had decent spices but the skin was a little tough. Neither had a bbq/smoky taste. The beans tasted like canned pork and beans with sugar and bits of brisket added. All and all I wasn't too impressed and probably won't be back.

One of us ordered the butter cake 11$. Was not pleased with it at all. Service was okay. Comfortable table & chairs. I still want to try the sausage, and definitely get more ribs. I am a huge fan of George Frasher food, I was a bit embarrased at having recommended this place to my friends.

    Went out to visit some friends in Goodyear, Arizona, and they took me to Rudy's BBQ -- and wow,…read morewhat a great experience! This is some of the best Texas-style barbecue I've had. I highly recommend the moist brisket -- tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The spicy chopped brisket baked potato was absolutely amazing, especially with their barbecue sauce on top. The whole atmosphere had that real country feel to it. It honestly felt like I was somewhere I belonged -- good food, good people, and that laid-back Texas BBQ vibe. If you're anywhere around Goodyear, Arizona, and love authentic BBQ, Rudy's is definitely worth a stop! I'll definitely be coming back. 5 stars all the way!

    Rudy's is good. Is it something to write home about? That probably depends on your exposure to…read morebarbecue. The concept is simple: order your meat by the pound, pick your sides, grab a dessert, and snag a beer, specialty soda, or fountain drink on your way to the register. The dining room is basically a redneck cafeteria, and I mean that as a compliment. Long community tables, no table service, and everything is self-serve. Honestly, I prefer it that way. I can grab as much white bread as I want, refill my own drink, never have to flag someone down for napkins, and I've had some great conversations with other patrons. The brisket is consistently good, and I always order it moist. The jalapeño cheddar sausage is another favorite, but the baked beans deserve their own mention. They're loaded with bits of shredded pork that add both texture and smoky flavor, making them one of the better barbecue sides around. Rudy's is one of those chains that doesn't feel like a chain. The focus is on the meat, and it shows. It delivers the consistency you'd expect from a larger operation while still feeling like a neighborhood barbecue joint. That's not an easy balance to strike, but Rudy's pulls it off.
