Watson's Bbq - Tucumcari

Great food, great atmosphere, great people. This bbq joint, from the beaten path, is worth a visit. We sat outside and enjoyed our meal. They have a well-furnished outdoor seating area as well as some cabins and tables inside.

Great food and people are super friendly. It is from the beaten path in a hardware / antique store that must see one. A true part of Americana. If you're nearby, stop. You won't regret it.

Can't say enough good things about this place! Great atmosphere and wonderful food.....real food, homemade and authentic. It doesn't need a sauce to check all my boxes. I will not lie the trip from the highway to the place, I checked my GPS more than once, but the high reviews kept me moving forward. Would definitely eat again!

We read great reviews as we were heading through on Route 40 so we stopped for lunch. We were delighted with the whole experience. Brisket was outstanding! Friendly folks, fun general store and CLEAN restroom. Do stop! You will NOT be disappointed ?

Stopped here, Tucumcari, driving through New Mexico, and it was a great decision. Great BBQ and Hospitality in a very small town. The gentleman/pitmaster who cooked the food said they are famous for their brisket, ribs and sausage, so that's what we ordered. We ordered the 3 meat meal with sides, Mac n cheese, baked beans and potato salad. Let me say, the meat tasted like they just butchered the steer and hog, very fresh. Everything was great. The sides were homemade and everything was very good. The pitmaster and a lady, who I assumed was his wife, were very kind and friendly.
