text: Been going to LMBBQ for a few months now and from now on this is my only BBQ stop I will not go anywhere else in Arizona Hands down the best TX style BBQ outside of Texas And yes I have been to Franklins LA Barbeque Louie Muellers Luling City Market Blacks Killens Corkscrew etc etc So take it from me that LMBBQ is just about as good as any of those and in some ways even better no kidding So if you have not been there yet then you have just got to try it it is the real deal Texas BBQ experiencennFirst of all their meat quality sides are of very high quality MUCH better than either Rudys or the Texas BBQ House And I do not even bother with those places anymore I am totally spoiled by LMBBQnnBrisket A brisket whether lean or moist it is tender juicy and like eating a slice of warm chocolate cakennTurkey A excellent moist turkey worth skipping Thanksgiving dinner for sorry grandmannPulled Pork A excellent porky flavor no sauce added but still moist not too fatty not too salty and often has little bits of delicious bark mixed innnPork Ribs Very meaty tender with very little fat That is how you know a true pit master knows his trade when the fat melts into the meat and in turn the meat melts in your mouthnnBeef Rib Saturdays Only Very good and worth the extravagant price once in a while Very beefy flavor lots of peppery bark and not too greasynnSausage Very good not at all greasy not too garlicky and made with a mediumcoarse grind nicennBeans A They are a meal in itself with almost more meat than beans no kidding A little on the peppery side though that suits me just fine However a bit of there good BBQ sauce can be added in to sweeten them up Either way very goodnnColeslaw Homemade goodness fresh made and not too dressed just rightnnGrits Excellent sublime even Very creamy with just the right hint of cheddar cheese flavornnSauces Homemade choices all of them interesting especially the sweet tangy mustard version is great on the pulled pork and definitely on the Thursday only pastrami nnAs far as the smokey flavor of the meat is concerned it is on the light side Personally the smokier the better for me but hey this is Arizona not Texas and I doubt that the average desert dweller would enjoy overly smoked meat So it is what it is but still dynamitennYou will have to stand in line for lunch no way around it though at least they have some shade to stand under and a mister system that really helps And the inside is tiny with the few tables filling up quick so it is either takeout or eat under the shade of their picnic tables However it is worth a taking a chance waiting until after usually the lines are gone and they still have many of their menu items availablennAnd it is a family operation and you will get to meet them all Super nice people and I am sure that eventually they will grow into a larger establishment Until then I will see you in line
