I did try it out it was good... I had the beef ribs it was good, it came with some veggies and also had a side of rice, It sometimes feels like I'm just at my aunts house grabbing something to eat read more

Down Home BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

Went there for first time ordered bbq chicken that seemed to had been cooked last week and was dry. Will not return.

Look at the recent reviews before you go to this restaurant. It seems like this restaurant may have been good at one point, but it's pretty awful now. We made the mistake of trying this restaurant just based on the overall 4 star average. However, I truly believe this place needs to be shut down. The whole group I ate with got sick from the food. Pros: fried okra was pretty good, sweet tea is good, waffle was fine, restaurant atmosphere was nice. Cons: we were served raw chicken, the oil our food was fried in was obviously old and left a very bad taste in the mouth, corn bread was awful almost like they forgot an ingredient, Mac & cheese was microwave food, coleslaw was unseasoned, meat was poor quality and completely soaked in sauce, everyone in my group of 3 got sick after eating, extremely overpriced. read more

The woman who took our orders and "made" our food was extremely rude. Pretty sure it was microwaved then thrown on a grill. Got home to look at my food for the first time and well you all can see the picture. The taste was absolutely disgusting. I couldn't force it down. I had to cut my losses and throw it out. DON'T waste your time or money. read more

Down Home BBQ - That's supposed to be brisket and pulled pork. - Barbeque Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

This used to be a great BBQ place. I went in and stood there at the counter looking at the side of the woman's face - who supposedly "worked there" while she pretended not to see me as I continued to watch her enjoying her time on the computer. The smell of old grease and rancid animal fat and looking at the side of her face as she ignored me made me change my mind about wanting to eat anything from this place. She let me stand there looking at her over the counter for a good 10 minutes - finally I'd had enough of her and this hole in the wall (it used to be a good place) what a shame. As I walked out I yelled pretty loudly "thanks a lot! Bye bye!" She actually yelled back "bye!" Whoever owns this place must not want to be in business anymore - this was the second time I left because of this woman's behavior and horrible attitude. The time before I was waiting my turn behind a couple and overheard her being rude and disrespectful - she actually raised her voice at them in front of me - I left that time too. read more

We went here for a bbq dinner. Nobody in parking lot. It was back of building. I went inside restaurant- I got an eerie feeling - I turns around and walked backed out. Went to a Mexican place instead. read more

Mmmm! Tasty. We ordered the three sampler meat, with brisket, beef ribs and St. Louis ribs. Potato salad, collard greens and corn bread. The St. Louis was our favorite, hands down. All of the meat was full of flavor and the sauce was thick and flavorful. Potato salad was a nice surprise. It was a mayo base, and that made my tastebuds super happy. Calling to place the order was easy, they had my order hot and ready as I walked in. Location was easy to find. My only negative was that our corn bread was so dried out that had to crunch a butter knife through it to break it in half. Even then, with the real butter they had, it was tasty. Would definitely return. read more

Absolutely terrible Hard buns The lots of fat Be prepared to chew a lot Cornbread like hockey pucks Has to turn lights on myself We are from out of town and will never be back read more

Hands down, best BBQ in town. Downtown Home BBQ may not be a new storefront but....hey, it has character. You feel welcomed. The food is delicious and has enough sweetness to make you smile. The chicken is cooked perfectly. Though I can't eat gluten, always alternatives. Wish they had hand cut fries... that would be perfect. Swing by and support family/veteran owned! Hooah. read more

This place is not good! I should have know with all the red flags. The chicken is not even in the bone the throw it on your tray like slop. I couldn't even tell the difference between the chicken and the pulled pork. The place was empty at lunch time. read more

I did NOT enjoy the 3 meat combo chicken, brisket, and ribs. The BBQ sauce is way too sweet and over powers the palate. The slaw was bland and collard greens was just ok. The place is a typical hole on a wall joint, but the uncleanliness appearance was unappealing to me. No A/C inside with dirty electric fans in the dining area. The food took forever as they only had one person taking orders and one making the food. No Bueno, No Go. Will NOT return. read more

Straight microwaved my hush puppy's that would get you kicked out of serving food in New Orleans

I was hoping for some great BBQ on our drive to Bisbee, so we stopped at this place along the way. Reasonable menu and small establishment, but we were happy to try a new place. The chicken and waffles didn't allow white meat, so we had to get pulled chicken. We also ordered a 2 meat plate (brisket & pulled pork) with jalapeno cornbread. The sauce from the chicken tasted like Lousiana Hot Sauce, pulled pork was ok but the brisket....not so much. Sorry guys, but the cornbread tasted 'out of the box'. read more

Forget it. We went there for the first time today. Liked the extensive menu - but when we went to order (and already had our taste buds set for a particular meal) they didn't have it. Would have been easy for them to mark the big menu board with some sort of indicator that it wasn't available... And, the lady who was taking the order didn't apologize or even seem like she cared when we said we'd be leaving because we were hoping to get that particular item. Also, my wife went to use the rest room and the hallway was dark - almost creepy dark. And the lighting in the bathroom was poor also - once my wife figured out which room was the ladies rest room. We won't be going back...too many other choices. read more

First off, let me say the hush puppies are pretty good! The pulled pork is ok, but a little tough and needs more seasoning. The corn bread is terrible, tastes stale and has no flavor. Also, the woman who works behind the counter is probably one of the most unfriendly people I've ever had contact with at a restaurant. read more

The lady working is very rude and has no customer service skills at all. If your food has hair in it don't call and tell her cause she'll tell you you're confused with another restaurant and she won't give a refund. Last time I will support this restaurant read more

Down Home BBQ - a fork in a bowl of macaroni and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

I was thoroughly enjoying my meal of catfish, fried okra and collard greens, I took a mouthful of collard greens and felt a stabbing pain in my tong, I fished out a large piece of metal. Razor sharp! I told them and got my money back. I'm beyond bummed, my favorite southern place but I couldn't eat anymore and risk cutting up my mouth any further. Hope I didnt swallow any read more

Down Home BBQ - Lots to choose from! Good southern food! - Barbeque Near Me - Sierra Vista, Arizona

The chopped brisket was subpar and the ribs were just plain bad. As far as bbq goes, it's easily the worst I've had that didn't come from a chain. I'm confident that their smoker outside is just for show and not ever used. I recommend you stay away. read more

This restaurant is terrible . Server/owner is very rude. Ribs & Brisket are not what your ordering, Thanks Down Home BBQ for the last 24 hrs of sitting on the pot! read more

First time going the food was delicious, the food they serve is huge, the gyro was delicious they make their own sauces and seasons with a calm environment. Would definitely come again. read more

So to concur with several previous reviews you definitely need a sweet tooth or better yet sweet teeth. To start, I was drawn in to this place on the way to a different lunch location by the sight of the smokers fired up outside of the establishment. I was so interested that before I went inside for linch I decided I would return before my drive home to Tucson and pick up a lb of brisket and ribs for the family for dinner. What a great plan. There's a saying about all great plans. .. Yes. Sweet. I ordered the brisket which was absolutely swimming in sauce. I prefer to dress my BBQ with sauce myself and see the meat. It was way too sweet and thick. There was a very nice subtle hit of spice, mild but tasty if you can get past the sugar content. The serving was quite fatty but despite this, the meat itself was not that tender. I picked out the fat that I could see beyond the sauce. The sides are $2.50 which I thought was pricey for a side of cornbread. However, the serving was three muffins. Who eats three muffins with their sandwich? The jalapeño muffins didn't have much flavor at all. No taste of jalapeños but again was too sweet. Sense of cleanliness was fair. Needless to say I didn't return to Tucson with dinner on hand. read more

The ribs are some of worst ones I've ever had. All fat no flavor. Save yourself a trip and some money go to Dickey's.

If you haven't eaten here you're missing out. Best damn BBQ around. Great quality and even greater portions. The price is high, but you definitely get what you pay for. Not like Dickies where you only get a taste. This place gives Quantity and Quality. The cook on wood out back. Don't miss this place. read more

Not impressed at all. This food was mediocre at best. I had the 2 meat combo (ribs and pulled pork) with Mac and cheese and house beans. The ribs were near bland but at lest they were tender. The pork was sloppy and severely overpowered by some over sweet semi spicy sauce. The pork flavor could not be pronounced through all of that if it was good to start with. The Mac and cheese was straight out out of a box with a little pepper. The house beans were made with some scrap pork and were not to bad other than once again to sweet. My suggestion to this place would be to spice it up but stop drowning the food in sauce and sugar unless the sauce could hold its own. read more

Visiting my amazing daughter here at Fort Huachuca. Came by this spot looking for mexican food. Glad we found this home style friendly spot. Down home bbq is authentic smoke bbq.

Thank you from Brianna and Alicia * pray for us Sunday) that's an inside piece. Lol read more

We tried this place yesterday. The bbq sauce was nice, sweet and bbq'y and then the mild heat settles in. Very nice sauce. The brisket was tender and all meat, no fat that I could find. We also got half a chicken - fall off the bone chicken with more delicious sauce. We will be back. read more

Great service and great food. This place is the real deal if you like bbq I highly recommend down home bbq

fish and chips is a$$ and drinks are hella expensive! Dont recommen coming to eat here...

It's ok ... The cornbread was rubbery and clearly microwaved the Mac and cheese wasn't cheesy the brisket was ok as I had the sauce on the side... Definitely not satisfied and spent too much for what ended up going to the animals.. maybe other items are better .. the cornbread made me sad ... read more

Not what it used to be. As I was sitting in the dining area after I made my order I heard the beeps of a microwave and knew that the owner definitely was not working. The Mac and cheese water mainly water and noodle. The brisket and chicken was nothing special either. It is sad to see a once good establishment become a quick serve mediocre establishment. read more

Tried them for the first time today. Excellent mac and cheese. Moist, flavorful fried okra. Fantastic, juicy, tender pulled pork. The other reviews I have seen with a negative slant are in two categories: 1.) Cheapskate Sierra Vista/Fort Huachuca types (look, if you want homecooked food that isn't from a chain, you'll have to spend more than $3.99 a meal, dude). 2.) People judging the interior for what the place isn't (It isn't a sit down place. It is a take out/lunch counter BBQ place). So, if you aren't choosing your food based on whether or not it is dirt cheap, and you don't expect a BBQ place to seat you like Tavern on the Green, and what you expect is a great BBQ meal at lunch or to take home, you'll really like this place. read more

Nasty!!! Poor customer service my partner and I went home and got sick from the fatty ribs and Mac and cheese the box is better

Everything is delicious!!! We are going through the menu and trying it all!!! Have yet to have anything that wasn't absolutely delicious!! BBQ, fish and Gyros. You have to try it!!! read more

St Louis Ribs were super yummy. I ordered a half rack and they were HUGE. I had a side of mac and cheese and ordered some jalepneo corn bread. The amount of food I was served was enough for me to have lunch the next day . So definitely great portion sizes. I was a little skeptical about barbeque in Sierra Vista, but I was pleasantly surprised. I left with a full and happy belly. The owner was really nice to me and thanked me for trying it out for the first time. I'm not a local in this area, but if I was , I would definitely come back. The restaurant was a little warm inside, but I didn't mind, if anything it carried the delicous scent of bbq. read more

IN SHORT: Skip this place. I'm giving this place a 2. I drove by on Saturday and was attracted towards the smoker fired up letting off a nice mesquite smell. I went for dinner on Sunday, the smoker was not running. Service was slow. The pictures of the food on the wall were not very flattering. I thought the prices were high but decided to wait and give it a try. I ordered a two meat combo and was overcharged $2. I didn't say anything. The counter is blocked off so you can't really see them preparing your food. The woman on the register was nice, likely the owner. The one preparing the food was new. I waited 15 minutes and my food was ready. Over-sauced and microwaved. How could I tell, you might be wondering? It had hot spots and cool spots and with no grill fired up...how else is it going to be reheated. It even had a little microwave flavor, like when it's over cooked. The cole slaw was not fresh. Likely made the Friday before. Overall, just not good. It could be a whole lot better. I would never go back. This is coming from someone who has lived in and experienced real BBQ of North Carolina, Kansas City, and Texas. If you're left wondering where to go in Sierra Vista, I'd suggest Texas Roadhouse. read more

I do not know what kind of food this is, but it's not BBQ. I ordered the 3 meat platter with brisket, pulled pork and pork ribs. Everything was cooked on a flat top grill and slathered in BBQ sauce. Nothing was cooked fresh on a BBQ grill. I wouldn't even say it was cooked on the grill, it was more so warmed up on the flat top grill. The corn bread was under cooked and was very hard. I also ordered the chicken and waffles hoping that would be good, but it was a big let down as well. The chicken was blackened. My wife said that her fish was very salty. The only reason I am giving it two stars is because my sides were pretty good and my kids burgers were decent and their fries were hot. The food was way over priced and my dining experience was subpar. Definitely not worth the 58 bucks. read more

My first time finding this place. This bbq sauce is to die for and the owner is super cool. I like that he was able to make me a chicken gyro. I also tried the beef brisket and love it. This place is very nice and I wish I found it earlier. read more

I got the brisket and it was supper dry and It had no flavor, the Mac and cheese had no flavor and was super watery, and the beans had a very sweaty taste. The lady who took my order had an attitude and a very nasty look. Would not recommend to anyone. read more

I was really needing a meat fix so decided to give Down Home a try. Really disappointed. I love bbq...all styles, but have a hard time with bbq joints that douse their meats in sauce. And not even really good sauce. The beans tasted like they came right out of the can (with some meat scraps thrown in to make it look homemade) and the cole slaw was watery and tastless. I had high hopes, but alas...guess I'll drive to Tucson next time. read more
