A little hole in the wall shared w a Conico gas station. I was on the road w my dogs and travel trailer. I had been craving good bbq and lo and behold l saw the sign for the next exit. I got off it was about 1035am they had just opened. It smelt delicious!! So l ordered 2 brisket sandwiches w chips to go. One for lunch one for dinner. Was l so glad l did!!! It was really tender, juicy , lots of flavor. The sauce was perfect. I got 2 plates for $21 tax included. Place was super clean restroom too! The lady was super friendly and kind. I definitely will stop there again on my next trip to Lubbock.

I've only been here once so far and I wasn't there long but it was a great experience and I'll be back again. I came in with a friend around breakfast time and while they no longer serve breakfast food normally, they made brisket and egg burritos for us that were excellent. They were very nice people and it was a great feeling for them to have been willing to make us breakfast food like we were looking for without any question. The food on the menu sounds delicious and the slab of brisket I saw looked and smelled excellent. I can't wait to try more of their food.

This is possibly the best BBQ I have ever had. The mac and cheese is like my mother makes, and the potato salad is fresh and delicious. Staff was friendly. Next time I come through, I will definitely stop by.
