I was blessed to live a block away from their trailer when they were just a trailer in a parking lot and we loved what they served back then. When they built that space just up the road, I was beyond thrilled. I'd wait for them to post on FB every Saturday, no line, lots of brisket left and we'd beat feet up there. We've never been up there that one of the owners didn't greet us and ask how everything was. It's more than great food. It's great service and great people. They've loaned smokers to competitors who had fire destroy their restaurant so they could fight and keep their business alive. They've really given back to others in the Lubbock area and I'll proudly continue to support them. 💜 now if only we can get that jalapeno corn on the menu permanently. 😉😄

Love this place…but far from some of the best. There’s better BBQ places in the rest of Texas. San Angelo near by will get you good quality BBQ. Hill BBQ at Yellow house coffee by far outclasses Evie Maes. Even The Shack is better. Big Es BBQ…even better….don’t get me wrong it’s great to go and grab a free beer while you wait or eat, but I’m afraid this place is more overhyped than anything…but that’s just what Lubbock does. It overhypes things. K know I sound salty…I just don’t get the hype.

Born and raised in Texas, and I can tell you just by looking at the ribs and brisket that it's probably some of the best BBQ money can buy. So many people think that if the rib is tender enough to pull the bone out that it's good, not true when I see that I immediately know they won't be worth eating. Nice to see someone with that knowledge. One day I'm going to make it down there to try this place out.

From the Oak fired smokers (as opposed to Mesquite or Applewood), to the homemade sauces, spices, and desserts, it's world class food! Arnis and Mallory are amazing and we're all super proud of what they've built. They never do anything halfway!

Maes takes the simple process and sticks with it and thats why its so good.
