The owner is absolutely wonderful. The food is good. The bark on the brisket is what you look for and you get it here. The amount of sauce choices is crazy. I came to make a video for my YouTube channel and they let me film. I also got to see some planes take off from their viewing platform. So cool.

West of town at the airport, the restaurant itself is unassuming. The sauce variety is extensive, presenting multiple regional sauces from across the US. While I appreciate the effort, the brisket itself didn't have enough spices or smoke boosting the flavor. The sauces can't penetrate the meat enough to push the flavor in any direction. Additionally, providing chips for tasting the sauces would help hone in on what you want to order, but focus on a style for each dish. St. Louis ribs, KC brisket, Alabama white chicken or Carolina pulled pork with corresponding rubs would elevate the menu from the meat and sauce it is now.

Jim Bobs BBQ is nothing short of delicious. As someone who works at the airport I eat there regularly and have tried almost everything on their menu. The food is great and the sauces are phenomenal. The service is perfect. The staff is warm and welcoming and the wait time is reasonable. There are times when they get busy and food comes out slower than normal, but in my experience 20 minutes is the longest I have had to wait.

DELICIOUS brisket! Mixed it with the South Carolina mustard, and just perfection. First time here and will be back next time we come down to las cruces! Food was fast, and service was extremely friendly. My kids loved watching the planes take off and land. Just a great little spot!

Ordered a 3 meat plate with hot links, 2 servings of brisket, slaw, cornbread, and mac n cheese to-go. We waited for about an hour and 15 minutes for our food because the kitchen printer didn't print our order and they were backed up. Eventually we saw some take out orders on the counter and they were being taken to those who ordered after us. About 10-15 minutes later someone brought our order from the counter and we noticed it was with that initial group. So they let it sit there without giving it to us, and when they did there was no apology for the wait or eye contact. Just terrible customer service.When it came to the food, it was alright. When we ordered we asked if the 3 meat plate would feed 2 people and they said yes. When we opened the box we realized we needed to but more food to feel full! The hot links were good but I learned I preferred brisket slices instead of chopped brisket, which was a bit dry. Slaw was too vinegar-y. Cornbread was overbaked by several minutes and dry. Overly brown on the sides and bottom. Mac n cheese was good! We were also missing a second sauce. Not sure if they are mostly used to locals and not open to serving tourists with good hospitality...guess good customer service went out the door as soon as we crossed the state border from Texas!

Jim B is true New Mex genuineness and hospitality. His food is New Mex simple and GOOD! Breakfast burrito on point and ready to be sauced: Fried potatoes, eggs, bacon, chile. Chopped brisket is on point. Burger is on point. Located up on airport plateau, if you are an aviation enthusiast this is even more reason to come.

I was getting towards hangry and stopped in at Ice Box because they have a food truck. The food truck is Jim Bobs and yes, I should know better than to have barbecue outside of Charlotte. So I avoided the pulled pork and went to the ribs.They were super busy tonight and running very slow. I don't know if short-staffed or waiting for food to cook or what but it was a solid 40 minutes of waiting. The bartender apologized and even said that they had cut off new orders so they could catch up. Y'all need to work on that.When they eventually arrived, the ribs were fantastic. Nicely cooked, firm meat, not quite fall-off-the-bone and tasty. Cole slaw was good. They also include a bucket of different sauces and I did try them all. There was a spicy red that was great but the ribs really didn't need the sauce.I'd have this again and next time, ask if the kitchen is running behind before committing.[Review 17478 overall - 88 in New Mexico - 996 of 2022.]

If you stop at this exit, head to the airport for some really good BBQ. Need a keto idea? Grab a two meat platter with a double side of the vinaigrette slaw!
