    Brisket
    Elaine R.

    Frasher's Smokehouse is definitely worth a visit for any BBQ lover! I had a great experience here, and I'm already planning my next trip back to dive deeper into their menu. I ordered the brisket, and it was seriously tasty. It was cooked well, tender, and had that great smoky flavor you expect from a quality smokehouse. It was exactly what I was hoping for and completely satisfying. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere felt authentic and comfortable, a perfect setting for enjoying some classic BBQ. The only reason I'm holding back the fifth star is that I only tried one item! But based on the high quality of the brisket, I have high hopes for the rest of the menu. I will definitely be back soon, and I am especially intrigued and excited to try their pizza.

    Tried this place on are recommendation. Good call! Tried the ribs, brisket and turkey. All were on point with good smoke flavor. The turkey was juicy and tender. The sides of beans & mac n cheese were also flavorful. We will return.

    I've lived around the corner from this place for five years and have driven by a million times. Was craving BBQ and decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did. As soon as we sat down, the owner George Frasher came over and introduced himself. He said he owns three restaurants across the valley and gave us some great recommendations on the menu. The service was incredibly friendly and quick. The ribs melted off the bone and the sides were all delicious. The patio was lovely and there was live music. The prices were also great for the portion size. Love supporting a local business. Highly reccomend a visit if you haven't been before!

    Sausage, Cheese, & Veggie Pizza

    We had a friend visiting from California who is originally from St. Louis so we had to take him to Frasher's! It's the only place out here where you can get St Louis style thin crust "Imo's" pizza with the provel cheese. Provel is a combination of cheddar, swiss, and provolone. You can't get it anywhere in AZ but Frasher's! Trust me I've tried. We ordered a sausage and a veggie pizza. We ordered the St. Louis Salad with Romaine lettuce, Artichoke hearts, red onion, Provel cheese, and Parmesan Vinaigrette, Yum! We also ordered St Louis Toasted Raviolis, one meat order and one cheese. Everything was delicious and the marinara sauce that comes with the Raviolis is amazing. The pizza is thin crust and cut into small squares! We had to get a piece of St Louis Gooey Butter Cake for dessert. Our friend was over the moon with the St Louis meal.

    pulled pork
    Mike A.

    I am not sure why I added this to my bookamarks, but we were coming back from Sky Harbor on the way home and I suggested this place. Food: Barely edible. The pulled pork was fatty and greasy. The burnt ends ordered vs what we received was a mess. They may have run out putting them on pizzas, because my order looked like cut up brisket. Some pieces were just a fatty mess. Best part of the meal, which for the 3 of us was over $100 was the toasted bread and side of corn. Service: Understaffed and one couple sat for 10 min and just left. We should have done the same... Two waiters covering the whole place. Overall: Maybe I caught them on an off night, but food was some of the worst BBQ I have ever had. Not worth coming back. sorry.

    2 meat platter
    Raquel A.

    We had high hopes. I'd seen Frasher's on the Food Network a while back and we finally had a chance to try it. I will admit I went primarily for the Burnt Ends Pizza. It's a St. Louis style pizza with the cracker crust and provel cheese. It was decent, but didn't wow me. My husband chose the 2-meat plate which is his go-to at most BBQ places. He had brisket and tri-tip. For sides, he had the garlic mashed and mac & cheese. He said the meats were ok, and the mashed potatoes were probably his favorite thing. I did try the mac & cheese and found it to be rather soupy had very little cheese flavor. That was a disappointment! It also came with toast which I found odd. I would have expected a roll or even cornbread. We also decided to split the Gooey Butter Cake and I'm so glad we didn't get a separate piece each as it was far too sweet to eat the entire slice. Service was good, and the musician playing outside was nice, but the food just wasn't our favorite and with better BBQ closer to our house, we don't anticipate that we'll be back.

    Gumbo and corn bread
    Vicente M.

    I came out for a golf trip with some buddies. One of the guys picked Frasher's before our visit to pop stroke. We came in on a Saturday at 1pm. We were a party of 12 which didn't seem to be a problem since we were seated immediately. We are all from California so we were all in the dark about this place. Staff was extremely diligent on tending to our every need. I had the gumbo. Not only was it the most inexpensive thing on the menu but it was the most delicious. Spicy but not too spicy filled with their recommended turkey. Everyone else had the two meat combo sandwich plate. There were no complaints. All the boys said everything was delicious. From the Mac and cheese, corn bread, brisket, burnt ends, and tri tip. No pizza or chicken was tried during our visit but the pizza looked good, they had a fresh one on the bar as we walked in. What I really liked about our visit was when we were finished eating, our server would come up to the table and say "may I take your plate." Which to me showed great manners, growing up in California we rarely come across a kind soul. So thank you for the experience. We'll drop by again next golf trip.

    2 smoked turkeys
    Joe L.

    We ordered our Thanksgiving turkey and ham to go. First off, the service was awesome. I wish I remembered the guy at the front (dirty blonde, caucasian) because he was awesome. He was friendly and helpful. He also grabbed another guy to help carry out the 2 turkeys and ham. Big plus is that they were the only place we could find the option to have the turkeys and ham ready to serve, i.e. no re-heating required! The turkey was smoked and delicious. The ham was some of the best ham we have ever had. It was also smoked and tender. I wish we just had Thanksgiving at Frasher's because it looked like a great relaxing and fun place to be.

This what we ordered: Brisket Hot links Pork Belly Pork Ribs BBQ Beans Collard Greens BBQ Spaghetti Hot Water Cornbread Cedar Lane Lemonade Everything was flavored nicely. If I had to omit one item from our order it would be the beans. My favorite was the BBQ Spaghetti, collard greens and the Hot water cornbread. I thought the beans would have a bit more flavor, but I've never been a bean kind of gal. You will need to try it for yourself! The Hot water Cornbread was great. The texture was a little gritty, but still yummy. The shape is what caught me by surprise. It was round and flat almost like a pancake. The service was outstanding. Friendly and hardworking. The food came out in good time. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. Has a warm but rustic vibe. I would most definitely revisit this spot whenever in the area.

The whites stayed north because local industry made real estate in the southside less desirable. Slaughterhouses and rendering factories gave south Phoenix a black cowboy population. Sure, there are cowboy groups in California - West Oakland and Compton - but these guys are all LARPing. That is, they're playing the part. Weekend warriors. The afro-vaqueros of Phoenix are dyed in the wool, real deal westerners. So anyway, it's in this milleu you find AT JL BBQ. Alongside said cowpoke, you may, as I did, dine next to a couple 304s. It's an active neighborhood, what can you say? Neither here nor there, but the ephemera that adorns the walls is different than what you might find at a soul food place. It's decidedly more American as such. Speaking of the signage: one of them reminds you that bbq is not fast food and that a patient temperament is of the utmost. Yet, the smoker ain't going. The Cue been cooked. As for the sides, no one does greens and Mac n cheese a la minute. So if everything is prepared, why do I have to wait? I kid. I jest. The girl behind the counter was all by herself. Gave great recommendations. And even gifted me a bottle of water On this visit, brisket was sold out. Late afternoon: makes sense. They had pulled pork. Bites of the smokerd rendered fat therein had the effect of rocket fuel. Pork belly was even porkier than the aforementioned shredded butt. Ribs pretty good too. Mac: ultra cheesy. Pot liquor from the collard greens came in clutch for hydrating the more dry pieces of pork.

Pretty much every type of meat that they had was a hit. Some of the meat was a bit salty, but it wasn't salty enough to affect my culinary experience. Overall I thought it was very delicious. Naturally, the sliced brisket was very juicy and tasty, and the chopped brisket provided good textural consistency along with the flavor. I also thought that the turkey breast was a good item to neutralize the strong taste that came from some of the meat, such as the pork belly burnt ends, which were both sweet and salty. The sausage pieces were also great in providing a layer of flavor distinct from the other kinds of meat. The pork spare ribs were generous in size, although I thought the sauce could be a bit less sweet. Overall, very solid barbeque meat and I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone that visits the Phoenix area.
