Our experience started before we even ordered our food. We simply asked Carl (a member of the pit…read morestaff) what type of wood was used to smoke the meat. That question turned into Carl proudly explaining the process from preparation, to smoking to plate and everything in-between. His enthuasism, artisanal detail, and forthrightness to answer our questions were extremely valued and appreciated. Carl went way beyond our expectations and set the tone for the rest of our meal. After conversing with Carl he walked us to the counter, introduced us to the staff making the plates and explaned the ordering process to us. We ordered several items on the menu so we we could each sample them. The brisket was exceptional... on point. Burnt ends were delicious. Sausage is a must to order. Absolutely incredible. Sides were lights out. The Mac and cheese was marvelous. Picnic perfect potato salad. Superb slaw and the corn casserole let's just say that we should have ordered a much larger size. We met Mason when we were checking out. His over the top customer service and genuine care for our satisfaction were greatly appreciated. As we were eating both Carl and Mason came over to see if we were enjoying our meal. We couldn't praise them enough. Everything about our visit was phenomenal. The food was delicious, the customer service by Carl, Mason and the rest of your employees was top notch. We look forward to visiting again and taking the pit class when we return to the valley. Thank you Caldwell County BBQ team!!!

What impressed me just as much, though, was the customer service.

Great food is important, but strong leadership and a true commitment to service matter too, and The Thumb clearly values both. Highly recommend.

We'll be back for sure!…read more So if you held a gun to my head and asked me to criticize SOMETHING... i could only say the portions (although perfect for me) need a little boost if I brought my husband. SO DELICIOUS- you 'could' easily over do it because it was THAT good! Options for sauce on the side are self serve and I opted for the two tangy ones - my friend went with the savory/sweet one. Brisket was tender, moist with a beautiful pink smoke ring (not as visible in the photo- but perfect in the basket)! I was offered 2 sides with my brisket & jalapeño sausage - I chose the eloté corn & cornbread. Both delicious! My friend got the brisket sandwich- served up very promptly and nice & hot! Everyone behind the counter was friendly, efficient and personable. Exactly what you're looking for for a great lunch spot! Cute colorful cactus mural- cowboy vibes, but not overly tourist - just enough to treat "out-of-towners" and locals alike. Easy going and friendly- great vibes, super cute patio and the inside is nice too. The price is very reasonable and I think a great value for the family.

We've done the brisket, pulled pork, turkey, and sausage. All are fantastic, but the brisket comes out on top. Incredible flavor and always so moist. The house made pickles are also a delightful addition. What really put it all over the top was our experience today. I was resisting the bread pudding but just couldn't stop thinking about it and ended up caving and getting it to go after we finished our meal. The man behind the counter, assuming one of the owners, made sure we got to try the homemade vanilla ice cream... game over. It was so damn good. 5/5 for food and service.

While I'd recommend ordering online to save time and make sure they're not sold out of items,…read moreLittle Miss BBQ is well worth the wait. I came the Sunday before Memorial Day and waited about an hour. They'll let you order drinks while in line and there's water. They sold out of pork belly right when I reached the front so I hope to try that next time. All of the employees were incredibly friendly. I got the two meat plate with fatty brisket and pulled pork with mac 'n cheese and grits as sides. I added on the prickly pear lemonade and pecan pie. The meats rivaled the BBQ I've had in Texas. The mac was incredibly cheesy and flavorful, and they know how to do grits right. Even with the jalapeños they were not spicy at all and I'm a wimp when it comes to spice. The pecan pie was the best I've ever had. The filling was custardy thick - I've never had a pie like it. The lemonade was a nice tart complement to the meal, plus I loved the house and mustard sauces. Having grown up in the South, I have high standards for BBQ. This place deserves all the praise it's getting.

Stumbled across this gem while visiting Scottsdale for Spring Training. I saw the reviews coming…read moreout the airport and was stunned at the reviews. We got our rental car and drove right over. Because we were hungry we decided not to wait in the line but reschedule to go back on Friday. I looked more at the reviews and Tik Tok's and saw this place was legit and the beef rib was to die for. Comes Friday, we get there at 10:15 am right before the line built up. We spoke with one of the employees for while regarding what to order and about Spring Training while we were in line. As we got in, you order at the counter and pick what you want. The employees are cutting up the food in front of you and weighing it. The inside area has limited seating and it's very narrow. Outside theres a good amount of seating but filled up right away. I ordered the beef rib for my dad and I to share, a plate for myself with brisket and turkey. I got cole slaw and mac sald on the side, both were kind've whatever for me. The turkey honestly is a sleeper pick, it was delicious and more flavorful that I thought. Brisket was mouthwatering and so tender but that beef rib lived to the hype. It fell off the bone and had the perfect fattiness to tender ratio. We enjoyed the outside and feasted but it's quite expensive like all BBQ. The quality was fresh and I would definitely recommend if you are in the area. I don't eat BBQ a lot so I don't have a huge sample size for whats good or not but I loved it!

We stopped at Tractor supply for a belt (actual belt, not a drink ... but let's consider that…read moreTSC..!) anyway, in the parking lot there are a c few small businesses and I like to support local entrepreneurs so I hiked the 20 feet to the beautiful BBQ grills calling to me. I chatted with Jerry for a few minutes, we discussed different things like how wrong Texas style pancake candy BBQ "sauce" is and how anything at any store is pretty much corn syrup & liquid smoke and he told me how he makes his own sauce so I bit and I'm glad I did. My teenage daughter loved it and my wife, who grew up with ribs and BBQ, and even my fussy son could not stop. As I said, I like supporting small business and working in a kitchen I'm learning how far passion takes the flavors. Jerry is Sicilian (they tie their shoes with a FORZA passion.) and I had a feeling those ribs were going to be the best I've had and he told me and he was right, they are. Search this guy out. I dunno if he's always at the TSC on saturdays or if he floats around (yeah, I'm a "flatlander" even though I've had a cabin on the rim for a decade) Anyway ... you Mogollon monsters got something good going there with Jerry. Keep him busy or I will, and I'LL BRING MY FRIENDS TO FOUL UP TRAFFIC EVEN MORE! Thank you Jerry, you have some great food there.
