We have a friend whose bucket list includes a ride on Rt. 66 in his sports car. Well, if he ever gets to do do it, his ride needs fo include a stop at Watson’s BBQ in Tucumcari, Arizona for some of the best barbeque I’ve ever had.
Tucumcari Ranch Supply is the home of Watson’s Barbecue, which has been recognized in several national and local media sources. They are located in Tucumcari, New Mexico just a few blocks off of historic Route 66.
We stopped recently on our trip across America and experienced not only their finger-lickin’ good BBQ, but friendly chats with the owners and staff who obviously love what they are doing.
We tried their 2-meat plate with two sides, homemade bread and cookie, and refillable lemonade and ice tea.
As the business is dog-friendly, our pup Bella accompanied us to our picnic table where she could smell fhe food fixings while watching the several cats meander around the premises.
5 stars!
