A wonderful experience! The food was spectacular and the service was second to none. The staff treated us like family and it was a very welcoming environment. Definitely a must stop if in Tucumcari or even just passing through. The po-boy sandwich with brisket and the 3 meat plate was amazing!! Definitely recommend some peach cobbler too! They even have a spectacular outdoor area for larger groups.

Do NOT mistake this place as some tourist trap! Serious, serious BBQ. Ribs, brisket, sausage all tender and juicy. Well balanced sauce served on the side. Potato salad delicious. Excellent beans. And save room for dessert a la mode. Watson’s is a must.

It’s always great to Stella and Jimmy Watson. We first met them several years ago. They treat everyone like family, and they make some great barbecue. They are one of our favorite restaurants in Tucumcari. Their friendly demeanor and great customer service definitely make a difference during the dining experience. All their food is delicious, including the Green Chile Apple Cobbler / Pie.
If you’re unfamiliar with Watson’s Barbecue and the location, then all you need is to look for Tucumcari Ranch Supply and walk through the doors
There, you will see the sign pointing the restaurant. The restaurant has several dining areas inside and large outdoor areas with plenty of seating.
We have never had bad food or a bad experience at Watson’s BBQ, and we visit Tucumcari they are usually the one’s we like to visit first.

We stopped here on our cross-country RV trip, and we were very happy to have discovered it! It is a combination farm store / gift shop / BBQ restaurant…..and it was literally the BEST food we have had on our trip so far! We both ordered combination plates and there were lots of meat choices….ribs, brisket, ham, sausage, chopped beef, etc, as well as all of the typical BBQ sides as well. The lady that served us was a delight. When the food came out, we were amazed! The portions were huge and everything was hot, fresh and delicious! Their BBQ sauce was very good and they even throw in sliced bread and a homemade cookie with your order. We also ordered the Green Chile Apple Cobbler and it was a major hit as well! We would definitely stop here again if we travel through this area in the future. The gift shop is fun to explore and offers misc local items and tourist items in a fun atmosphere. Definitely a MUST-SEE!

One of our most unique BBQ experiences! You’d never expect to find good BBQ kind of in the middle of nowhere, in the back of a gift shop.
The food was really yummy. Pulled Pork and ribs were delicious. The sides were tasty and I love that they give you a cookie.
The Watsons are a very nice couple. They chat with you, and really want to k ow how you like their food. The town obviously loves them because they have a huge outside area and plenty of indoor seating for this small town BBQ joint.
They’ve done an awesome job here and we’ll be stopping in on our next trip west. Thanks for the great lunch!!

Our meal was delightful. We scarfed down a 3-meat plate with brisket, sausage, and pork ribs with sides of Mac n cheese and coleslaw. The brisket was so tender and delicious. I’d have eaten more of that and the sides but I was stuffed. Also had a peach cobbler with ice cream and green chili apple cobbler. So glad to try both. Definitely order with ice cream and it’s just the right size. Unbelievably kind and welcoming service. So many interesting things to see and look at in terms of decor. It’s a vibe. Check it out!

They deserve every star in their reviews! For $12.95 we got shredded brisket on a great pita with onions and coleslaw on top, chips, a drink, and a cookie. Great bargain but even better food! The brisket was melt in your mouth tender. The pita was fresh but able to hold all the innards without falling apart. The cookie was both chewy and crunchy. The only draw back is that it was hard to find since it was inside another store.

Food was amazing,.absolutely LOVE to support small local businesses when we travel, and this gem was worth the find! Bonus it a farm store. Must try.

This barbecue restaurant is off the beaten path. If you’re looking for a unique place to visit and where your eyes can wander and read where other people have been then this is the place for you. The folks who were running the register and the cook are friendly and helpful. The food portion is generous in size and moderately priced. The brisket was okay. The Alfredo macaroni and cheese was okay. The beans and coleslaw were all so okay. I did not find this restaurant to be outstanding but again if you’re looking for a unique place to eat this is the place for you. The restroom was clean and sanitary and also unique it is indoors.
