Reviews
been to another barbecue restaurant that serves the fat. We were not given a choice for the flat or the moist end. Finally, they gave us one 4 inch container of barbecue sauce that was only half full. Luckily I was paying attention and opened up the meat before we left and added more from the tables. I can’t imagine that they can sell that brisket for $37 a pound and feel good about hitting half fat.
You’ll be lead to believe this is a “nice gesture”, so you say yes, then the bill arrives and I was a truly shocked and terrified. $75 dollars for two trays with a side each is outrageous. I was so furious I didn’t want to blow up on the regular staff member. This ain’t their fault however it’s a clever tactic to get more money and I felt taken advantage of. Safe to say I’ll never return to any of their location ever again.
Good luck out there!
The girl was nice enough to give us the fresh Mac & cheese (on her own, unprompted) after we got the last few scoops from the older batch.
The food was amazing! The jalapeño cheddar sausage was great. Perfect snap! The Mac & cheese was also delicious.
Definitely worth coming!
I think I will return for date night and maybe try the go certs and the assisted climbing!
I have to reel this in a bit and get back to the great food. They have a full bar, plenty of outside seating. Check out the photos and let me know what you think when you check it out!
This is my 3rd visit now and it just keeps getting better! I you love BBQ show up and enjoy!!!
At Caldwell County BBQ, tucked away in Gilbert like some beautiful secret, they get it. Fourteen hours. That’s how long they let their brisket commune with smoke at a steady 250 degrees. Fourteen hours of transformation, of tough connective tissue surrendering to time and heat, of fat rendering down into liquid gold that bastes the meat from within. This isn’t fast food. This isn’t convenience. This is alchemy.
The dry rub—Christ, the dry rub—they don’t mess around here. It’s applied with the kind of generous abandon that suggests confidence, maybe even arrogance. And why not? When you’ve got meat this good, when you understand the fundamentals this deeply, you can afford to be bold. The exterior develops this beautiful, almost obsidian bark that gives way with the gentlest pressure to reveal meat so tender it practically falls apart at the suggestion of a fork.
For sixty bucks, you can feed a family of four. Ribs, brisket, sausage—the holy trinity plus whatever else catches your eye. In a world where everything’s gotten precious and overpriced, where “artisanal” has become code for “we’re going to charge you thirty dollars for a sandwich,” this feels like finding a twenty-dollar bill in an old jacket pocket.
I’ve been around. I’ve judged barbecue on national television, eaten at joints that people make pilgrimages to visit. But here’s the thing about great food: it doesn’t need a pedigree. It doesn’t need a story about fourth-generation pitmasters or secret family recipes. It just needs to be honest. It needs to be good.
Caldwell County BBQ is honest. It’s good. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why you fell in love with food in the first place—not because someone told you it was special, but because your taste buds are sending urgent telegrams to your brain saying, “Pay attention. This matters.”
Go. Eat. Thank me later.
