"Walking in, it looked like a BBQ joint should. I loved the decor and the fun facts they have up. The food was... ok. I had pork and beef, my husband also had the chicken. Nothing was dry or over cooked and you could truly taste the meat, but that also meant there wasn't much of a smoked taste. The brisket's smoke ring wasn't very deep which may explain the lack of smoked flavor. I liked that they didn't have a ton of sauces and their sauce had good flavor. Chili was ok, but I expected more of a kick and less tomato flavor. I wasn't a huge fan of the potato or macaroni salad, but more because it was a different flavor profile than I prefer. The macaroni and potatoes were right on point in terms of how they were cooked and the dressing to ingredient ratio was spot on. All in all, I'll likely go back. Sometimes smoking can not go how you expected, so perhaps this was just an off day in their pit. The staff was super friendly and overall it was a great experience."

I love the baby back ribs, and how they put them back on the grill to bake the sauce on before they serve it to you and the brisket sandwiches phenomenal

Got the sandwhich and 2 rib combo with potato salad. Sandwich was great, ribs were a little on the dry side and the potato salad was ok. Will give it a second try. View menu

This is authentic Texas BBQ! And an El Paso classic. We picked up some brisket sandwiches for our company lunch, and it was a hit! Recommend this place for anyone looking for no frills, quality BBQ, and great service. View menu

Place was hot, maybe their A/C not working…? Food was not great, though OK, brisket and pork is good but a little too much fat for my taste, ribs ok, chilly was bland they forgot to season it or something…? Potato salad was the best part, that salad was goood!. Price is not cheap! Not impressed, just acceptable. Honestly I’d rather go to almost any other BBQ place in El Paso.

I did not enjoy my first visit to this restaurant but decided to give it a second chance. Unfortunately, my experience did not improve. I ordered the two meat plates with brisket, chicken, macaroni salad, chili, and an extra hash. There are a few positive aspects. The hash is delicious and some of my best in years, though it could use more potatoes for better texture. The chicken is also very moist, with juices flowing with every bite, but it lacked flavor, making it rather disappointing. The brisket, however, was a complete letdown. It had no bark, taste, or texture, and I cannot recommend it to anyone. The macaroni salad was bland and lacked substance. As for the chili, it was the worst I’...
