We have enjoyed the food here for years. BBQ is an art and these folks get it right. I have spent considerable time in Alabama, the Carolinas and elsewhere that endlessly work to perfect this cuisine. Can't Stop Smokin competes with the best of them. And the service is always friendly and welcoming. Keep up the good work folks. ????
We met with friends at this restaurant for lunch. This restaurant was recommended to us by a friend. Well, it was a winning. The staff members welcomed us with a smile and we had a fantastic feeling. The meal was fresh and delicious. We enjoyed every moment and we will visit this place again. Keep it up.
Brisket was a touch gristy, but Good! Pulled pork tasty.. Jalapeno corn bresd almost as good as my Mom's. Fair price and portions.
My Girlfriend grabbed the Groupon on a whim and we decided to cash it in tonight.
Decor - ☆☆☆
Clean & modern, but just enough seating that a few parties of 4 would make it uncomfortable to "dine in."
Sauce - ☆☆☆ ½
3 choices including sweet, zesty, and spicy. All three were well done, would be nice to see a mustard based sauce as well though; Zesty was our favorite.
Meat - ☆☆☆ ¾
We chose a half pound each of the chicken, sausage, carnitas, and brisket. Everything was smoked very well and the sauce choices simply and effectively complimented each meat. Would rate a solid 4, but the chicken was a touch dry, chalking that up to trucking the meat from Chandler to Mesa every morning; split decision on sausage v. brisket.
Sides - ☆☆☆ ¼
Grabbed the German inspired potato salad and the Mac N' Cheese. Potato salad was good, definitely better than most places who try and pull off a non mayo base. Mac was subpar for us, very generic and had an interesting (not bad) finish.
Bread - ☆☆☆
Choice of a standard dinner roll or jalapeño cornbread muffin, both were good but nothing special; split decision again.
Service / Knowledge of Product - ☆☆☆☆☆
I forget the young man's name who took our order, but he was outstanding and made the entire experience worthwhile.
Overall Score - ☆☆☆ ¾ The Groupon value definitely pushes the "bang for buck" over the edge, and I would highly recommend grabbing it while the deal lasts. We will definitely visit again and appreciate an alternative to our normal BBQ joint.
My husband and I wanted to try a new place and what better way to end the night with some BBQ. We stopped in, very nice little BBQ spot (the full menu restaurant is in Chandler)... My husband got the Son's of BBQ combo plate (Brisket, Pulled Pork, and 2 Ribs) and I chose the 4 Rib Plate.
I must say it's hands down the best BBQ I've tasted here in AZ... Or even my the best I've tasted ever! I've always loved ribs and these were flavorful and fall off the bone delicious. They have some BBQ sauces but it doesn't even need it! And I've always had bad luck with brisket... Other places they've been dry and tough. But the brisket from Can't Stop Smokin' BBQ will change your life. It's very flavorful, seasoned well, and breaks apart like butter. It's just so damn good!!
I cannot wait to try more BBQ as well as visit the restaurant. My new favorite place for sure!!!
