Johnny's Pit Barbeque

A hidden Gem in the Upper Valley. Simply the best! The Johnny sandwich is delectable, and the sides are well made. Love this place.

Wow! We drove from Arizona today to do some shopping and check this place out! Absolutely worth the drive! Lola was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! We got the Big Johnny and a regular Johnny. Barely able to finish the Big Johnny it was so much meat! The bread was toasted and so tasty! We absolutely will be back!

First time here, came based on reviews and man it didn't disappoint I got the big johnny. Brisket, pickles, mustard, bbq sauce, onions and chilies. It's a heart sammich and so freaking good. Brisket is tender and super flavorful had a mild smokey taste, the bbq sauce was pretty damn amazing. Mildly sweet had a nice tang and savor taste to it. I woulda drank this out the bottle. I got here just before the crowd started rolling in. I can see why they've been around since 1955. I'll be back to check the reat of the menu out.

Average bbq that seemed a little mushy. Service was good in this simple little store front. If had worse bbq I. Texas but I've had a lot of much better bbq there too.

Wow what can I say bbq not really pulled pork from the oven brisket was completely lack of any flavor all the sides were cheap knock offs from other restaurants and do t order to go they'll miss half your order.

Take out or catering for a big party and this place is a winner. Don't know what to bring for a pot luck. Go here.I have never been here or had a desire to come here until a friend of ours brought potato salad from here to a pot luck at our house. It was so yummy we had to go try more.Dine in is a mediocre experience. It is an order up counter with no service. We got tea that was warm with very little ice. But the sandwich we had was yummy and of course the potato salad is amazing. As we sat we noticed a ton of cars coming through drive through picking up what they had order for that night's dinner. Then I realized why this place always looks empty and yet it still is open. Because a lot of people order and bring it home. The BBQ sauce is good. Brisket is really good. The price is very reasonable. Great local spot. That is not a franchise.

Excellent BBQ! Try the Big Johnny, a delicious brisket sandwich. The cole slaw was also very good!

We have been wanting to stop here for a while. They are located in a small plaza on Doniphan. Stopped on a Saturday for lunch. The staff was very friendly. They obviously have regulars that eat here as the staff knew several clients that walked in. Service was fast which is always great at a barbecue place. Ribs are served only on Saturday. We each had the 1/2 slab of rib plate with two sides. We ordered the chili beans and cole slaw. The ribs were mouth watering, fall off the bone tasty, and so did not need any barbecue sauce. My husband ate his with barbecue sauce and said the sauce was not sweet and was a great brisket sauce and not a Kansas City sauce. The chili beans were the best I've eaten. They were cooked with ground meat and not spicy. The cole slaw was tasty and had chunks of pineapple. Normally, we do not like pineapple in our cole slaw, but didn't realize it until 1/2 the slaw was eaten. It did not make the slaw sweet. Other than my husband's ribs, these are the best I've eaten in El Paso. We'll be back. Can't wait to go back!

Best dang BBQ sandwich I've had in a long time! Get the Johnny. The cost to quality and quantity is unbelievable. It's a monster of a sandwich. I'm a big guy with a big appetite. This fully satisfied me leaving me wishing I wasn't so far from my bed to take a nap.

Food was awesome! Great home cooking flavors. The coleslaw was a unique wonderful treat. Very friendly.
