I was reminded of Caldwell County BBQ's jalapeño cheddar sausage today while thinking about the…read morebest barbecue I have had and where I would recommend. I live in California now, but I would recommend Caldwell County to anyone in Arizona, especially people in the East Valley who somehow have not tried it yet. This is genuinely some of the best barbecue I have had. The meats are flavorful, the portions are satisfying, and the jalapeño cheddar sausage has just the right amount of heat without overpowering everything else. It is the kind of food that sticks in your memory long after you leave. Honestly, if I lived close to the Power Road location, I would have a very difficult time staying away. Absolutely worth a visit.

I would like to thank the staff at the hotel for recommending this place. What a hidden treasure!…read more Their food is absolutely fantastic. I had the brisket and pulled pork plate (I also wanted to try the ribs and sausage, but they were already sold out!). That gives you an idea of how popular they are. Great service as soon as you enter. The young staff were super nice and polite...great job by them. The indoor space (with cold AC to fight the Arizona heat) is small but clean and comfortable. They also have outdoor seating with fans and mist to cool you off. I took my order back to the hotel. Let me tell you, the food is phenomenal. That brisket was so moist and perfectly seasoned...gosh it was so good! The pulled pork was fantastic as well. The potato salad was great and definitely made on-site, not from a bag. The beans were really good too. I was really impressed with their offerings and will definitely go back on my next trip to Arizona.

The food was worth the wait in line outside in the heat. That says a lot in August! (No more than…read more10 minutes outside.) We tried the 2 meat combo $29 and sandwich $19. Both come with 2 sides and I enjoyed all their options. The beans have chunks of meat and a bit of spice, the slaw & potato salad are lighter than your usual mayonnaise laden standard. The brisket & pork ribs were melt in your mouth tender! No knife required. The chopped brisket was moist and perfectly sauced, served on a delicious potato bun. The staff were all very friendly. This is definitely not a place to sit at if you don't have to. Very small inside and not much to look at. Now, weather permitting sitting outside and admiring their smoker might be a good option. It's a beauty!

Okay girlies, buckle UP…read more I've been a Lucille's whore since the pandemmy, and let's be crystal clear: I am NOT showing up for the food, I'm showing up for the staff. The energy here is a spiritual practice. Immaculate. And today? TODAY. My server. Christian. I am fully deceased. This man/bartender is giving Michelin-star menu interpretation, darling -- described the specials with the drama and precision of a sommelier at The French Laundry, but make it hot. He's a straight man, with an ass sculpted by the gods (I'm gagged), AND he has soft skills, AND he can hold a conversation?? That is a rare, endangered species, hunny. Protect him at all costs. I almost cried into my water glass. The food: chicken tenders absolutely drenched, drowned, baptized in Nashville hot. Divine. My mouth was on fire in a spiritual way -- I saw God and she was a deep-fried tender. Suffering and thriving simultaneously. Love love love love Lucille's. And Christian specifically. 10/10, would let him interpret my menu any day.

The last few times we've been to Lucille's, I've thought it was just mediocre. It used to be really…read moregood. My husband really likes Lucille's and wanted to come back so we did. The server was nice enough but barely came by. I think she only checked in us once. I ordered a classic tri-tip sandwich and the meat was terrible. It didn't even look like tri-tip to be honest and it was leathery. My husband's ribs were overcooked. Overall, I'd say the food just isn't as good as it once was!

Wanted some BBQ and decided to give Rudy's a try. I have enjoyed Rudy's previously but it's been a…read morewhile. I arrived about 2:30 on a Tuesday. I had to wait about 5 minutes to order. It's a Texas BBQ counter service restaurant and the employee that took my order was friendly and polite. I ordered two spicy chopped brisket sandwiches. My food was ready a few minutes later. I help myself to the condiment bar where I grabbed some pickles, onion and pickled jalapeños to go for my sandwiches. Americana decor covered the walls providing a relaxing atmosphere. Great place to watch sports with many TVs throughout the restaurant. The chop brisket sandwiches were delicious and juicy. Looking forward to returning for breakfast tacos and trying the turkey. Highly recommended! Pro tip #1: Spicy Chop Brisket sandwiches are 2 for 1 on Tuesdays. Pro tip #2: Breakfast tacos provide a value option for early risers.

I had to revisit my recent review here. I left 2 stars last time because the service was good, but…read moreafter eating the peach cobbler we purchased I had to show people here what I am talking about. This is the worst cobbler I've ever had! 3/4 of it is nothing but crappy crust. There's very little peach in it. This is 1/2 of the quart I got that came in the Styrofoam cup in the picture for $19. After looking at the receipt again I was irritated by the insane cost of the worst ribs ever. $63 for a rack of babyback ribs is the highest in town. Most places get $32 to $38 a rack. I admit that I made the mistake of going here, but never again! My efforts to try their smoked prime rib was a worthless journey. I call about 10 times looking for medium rare prime rib, and they never had it. They didn't have it the day they told me they did. I asked for a pound and a half of prime rib, and I got 3/4 that was only slightly pink in the very center. It was cold and had no aju, and no juice whatsoever in the meat! There wasn't even much smoke flavor at all. Worst prime rib ever! There's much better BBQ around for much less money!

As I sit here on my lunch break eating the last half of the last Green Chile Burrito I bought, I am…read moresaddened that Little Miss BBQ Sunnyslope location is not near me, lol!! People come here for the meats: brisket, ribs, pulled pork, BUT!!! Have you had this GREEN CHILE BURRITO?! I beg you to try it if you have not... most people don't know they even have it, but luckily, for my coworker and I, Director of Operations Matt, walked up to us as we dined in last Wednesday and let us sample the Green Chile. As most of you know, I can't hang when it comes to spicy foods, but this chile is THE EXCEPTION (even though it's only "mildly" spicy). We each ordered the 2 meat plate, but we were so appreciative of the sample he gave us, otherwise we would never have known about it. We ended up ordering 2 burritos for our lunch the very next day!! You can also add cheese to it! I went in again for the 3rd day in a row on Friday, since I'm not sure when I'll work in that area again (I was 10 min away all last week)!! I asked my boss if I could work there on Mondays and Fridays, that's how good this burrito is!! They also have a MEAN Pecan Pie. It's called Bekke's Smoked Pecan Pie and it too, is a must try item! Matt told us it's a secret recipe from one of their employees and the crusts are hand pressed daily. Using a machine is just NOT the same, and I believe it! Since I am not sure when I'll make my way back there, I also bought another pie on Friday. So far, I've only had 1 slice because I need to ration accordingly! Prior to my 3 visits last week, I went to this location last July, when a friend was visiting from out of town. The place is clean and welcoming, and they have the best customer service! On Thursday and Friday when I ordered online and picked up, my orders were ready before the estimated pick up time! Mark was at the pick up window both times and he rocks!! I had forgotten to ask for the Banana Pudding I ordered on Wednesday when we dined in. I called as I drove home, realizing I left without it. Amanda was super friendly when she answered the phone and assured me I would have it when I came the next day. Mark delivered and had it in my bag the next day when I picked up our burritos. Service with a smile is what you'll get here! You cannot go wrong no matter what you order here! The meats are absolutely perfect and the flavor profile on everything is mind-blowing! Do yourself a favor and ask for the Green Chile anything next time you're here. Tell them I sent you! Don't sleep on the Banana Pudding or Bekke's Smoked Pecan Pie, either. Something about that smoking process makes the pie stand out from every other pecan pie you've ever tasted, trust me. It's also NOT super sweet like you're probably used to. If you call in, you can't place an order by phone, so do it online and you'll get a text with an estimated time of pick up. You can skip the line inside, too. Just walk up to the pick up window and you're good to go when you ring the little doorbell. There is plenty of parking outside and they even have a large patio space should you choose to dine outside. Thank you, Matt, Mark, Amanda and the rest of the crew at Little Miss BBS Sunnyslope for such a pleasant experience every single time!! I will be back for sure! Don't forget to try the Prickly Pear Lemonade (spiked with vodka -- my choice of poison)! enJOY!!

O.M.G. The perfect…read moreopportunity to go whole hog... First of all, I rarely care for the interior of most Phoenix restaurants, but this restaurant is magnificent. Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner.

Their sauce was awesome. The restaurant was immaculate and one can even see the open kitchen which was kept amazingly clean. The service was kind and friendly and attentive to detail.

As a vegetarian, I was happy to see plenty of sides to choose from, and they did not disappoint. The mac and cheese and potato salad were both solid (7/10), while the rice and beans stood out at an 8/10--smoky, flavorful, and really satisfying. I can only imagine how well everything would pair with their meats. The fries (on the house!) were perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. And the BBQ chipotle spicy sauce? Easily the highlight--rich BBQ flavor with a great kick of heat. Service was excellent--ask for Tom--and the ambiance was casual but lively. It was busy for a Friday evening, which says a lot for a spot that feels a bit hidden, yet is right in a prime Tempe location. Definitely worth checking out!
