Social Profile:

Little Miss BBQ is built around providing our idea of amazing central Texas style barbecue and to be the best part of your day. We use labor intensive techniques using Arizona white oak, pecan, pistachio and mesquite firewood in smokers that we designed using all of our knowledge about what it takes to create amazing barbecue. We use prime beef sourced from a single rancher who we believe creates the best tasting beef in the US. We then use our technique, simple seasoning and clean burning smokers to try and highlight the amazing beef, pork and turkey to highlight the quality without it getting lost in sauce and crazy flavors. The barbecue is served meat market style which is deli style where you can order as much or as little as you lik…

This functional eatery with a retro vibe specializes in Central Texas–style BBQ & traditional sides.

This place was absolutely amazing! First of all, the food was incredible. Every kind of meat was cooked to perfection, packed with smoky flavor and a perfect texture.
The service was just as impressive. Since it was my first visit, I asked if I could try a little bit of each type of meat, and the staff were so kind and helpful. They gave great suggestions and helped me choose the perfect amount to sample.
The dine-in space is small and the line was long, but it was definitely worth the wait. I’ll absolutely be coming back!

I went there after reading Google reviews, and it definitely lived up to its reputation. The brisket was incredibly tender and delicious. I could see why customers were constantly coming in – it was truly amazing. And the jalapeño cheddar cheese sausage was really delicious. I’d love to come back again if I have the chance.

Fantastic! This restaurant only makes a certain amount of food per day, when it’s gone, they lockup and go home. I bought the $100 platter and got to pick multiple items I wanted. That was 3 days of the best BBQ eatin I’ve ever had. Good job Little Miss BBQ 🙂 Enjoy everybody…

Little Miss BBQ lived up to all the hype.
I’m not a BBQ expert by any means, but this was easily the best BBQ I’ve had. I’ve been to Joe’s Kansas City and Shotgun Willie’s in Nashville (both great), and Caldwell BBQ is a close second, but there was just something special about this place.
Had the fatty brisket, turkey, burnt ends, and jalapeno sausage, everything was amazing. Even the beans and coleslaw were really good.
Totally worth the wait. I’ll definitely be back!!

Wow. On par with anything I have had in KC and Texas. Brisket, turkey, and the 707 sausage, all so good. Might have been the best turkey I have had. And the sausage, great snap to it, perfect smoke flavor. Will stop there again!!!

I was fortunate to show up on a Thursday which is when pastrami is featured. And I love pastrami. The staff could not have been friendlier and kind. We had a brief wait outside but it was shaded and we were eventually welcomed inside to the cool air conditioning to order our food. Seeding is limited on the inside so we had to sit outside. I went with the pastrami sandwich and it was delicious. I will share, If I am going to pay over $20 for a sandwich then a healthier bread option should be available. 4 stars.

Side note, it is pretty pricey but man was the food amazing!!!

After hearing and reading so many great things about Little Miss BBQ, I decided to take the drive out with some of my friends to finally give it a try – and we certainly weren’t disappointed! Although pricy, the quality of the meat expertise of the pit masters were apparent.

I ordered the two meat plate with brisket, pork ribs, beans, grits and also added a sausage. Although I’m not normally a fan of beans or grits, both of these sides were excellent and flavorful – honestly making me rethink my opinions on both! The ribs were tender, but not overly tender which sometimes happens when they’re overcooked. The brisket was extremely tender and well seasoned – and paired excellently with their house bbq sauce. The sausage was delicious albeit slightly dry, but I still enjoyed it a lot.

The service here was superb. Although ordering at a small counter, the employees were extremely kind and helpful with an amazing attitude… which is not something you always see at restaurants. It definitely gave us a great first impression which was then drilled in with the quality of the good. One other thing I’d like to note was display of smokers that they had out front – very impressive and it made the whole seating area smell so good!

Overall, I would definitely recommend this BBQ joint if you’re looking to splurge for something authentic and delicious! My friends and I will definitely be back.

I was turned onto this place from a buddy of mine who brought me one of their green chili burritos. I instantly fell in love with that burrito as I go to Phoenix occasionally, I really try to stop by here when I can, and I finally tried some other food that they had and let me tell you it was absolutely amazing. I got the jalapeño cheese grits the beans I also got fatty brisket and the burnt ends and the burnt ends are to die for. It’s like candy. I can’t wait to bring my whole family here. The atmosphere is super cool and very homie. And the employees are super friendly and funny. The people that is sleeping on this place better come check this out and the people that are complaining probably still have people wiping their butts. There’s nothing to absolutely complain about this place. I’d give more than five stars if I was able to!

Fantastic BBQ! Was searching for a place I could bring my father in law to that served ribs and chances upon this place. We enjoyed it immensely! The beef ribs and the pulled pork were excellent! Have to add that the Sausage was also great. My father in law remarked, “can we come back here again before we leave?” And he’s hard to please we enjoyed the pecan pie as well. Shout out to the friendly staff! We felt very welcome
