I just grabbed a quick pulled pork sandwich passing through, on my way back to Colorado. Now, I'm not a BBQ connoisseur, but for a spot that was attached to a gas station, this was a welcome treat and tasted great. I wish I would have gotten more food, while I was there. But now I know I have a reliable lunch stop on my way back through.

First off this is a review for Mitch's trailer which happens to be at the toot'n totum parking lot in canyon on 2590, the staff is very friendly offered good suggestions barbecue was good poppers is good food could have been a little warmer. Their freshly made thick cut potato chips are really good and what they call the stockpile which is chips buried under brisket, beans and cheese drizzled with barbecue sauce. I actually had mine with brisket and pulled pork both were excellent. good char & good flavor just not quite hot enough temperature wise. I might be partially to blame for that ordered and ran inside to wash my hands and grab a toot'n totum ice tea.

Very cool concept to have a full service BBQ place inside a convenience store (with Tesla Super Chargers). My man ordered the sliced brisket plate and I ordered the 2 meat plate with two different types of sausage. Our sides were fried okra, coleslaw and mac and cheese. Lastly, I though an order of the banana pudding would be great. We choose poorly with everything. Boo. It's not often that we walk away from a meal unhappy, but ya know. It happens occasionally. Mitch's has some room for improvement and with some tweaks, can be much, much better. Here's a few we noticed: less cheese in the sausage (I know, who would have ever thought less cheese is better!). The okra was soggy, so maybe working out the timing so that the crispy coating isn't compromised. The brisket was good, but the sauce was too vinegary for me and just meh for my man. The banana pudding was maybe the most disappointing. I'm not sure that the pudding actually was, but it was unlike anything I've ever had - way too dense with only a hint of banana. The staff cut 1/4 of a banana into small pieces and added a few slices to the bottom and top sections of the container we ordered. He took a few 'nilla wafers and crumbled them up on top of the dense mass. It was odd. No beuno. We each took a few bites and left the rest. We could have chosen the Wendy's that was next door, in the same open space. As we were leaving, we both shared that Wendy's would have been a better choice. Sometimes, it's knowing what you are getting that matters most.

Horrible first experience.
How are you going to run out of brisket, in your new market, less than 1 month after your grand opening? I went by 35 minutes ago and was told, it will be 20-30 minutes. No problem! I drove off and ran a couple quick errands. I drove back, went through the drive thru and same person just said it’s still gonna be another 20-25 minutes.
Unimpressed.
Will stick with Tom & Bingos, The Shack and Evie Maes.

This is not the quality of barbecue you expect at a gas station restaurant. I was really impressed - it is spot on - I had delicious brisket with tasty green chilli mac and cheese and beans and Texas chips. They have their own bbq sauce in help yourself bottles along with pickles and chilli peppers. Decent beer selection too. Very happy customer here.

Watched the preparer slice the fatty trimmings off a brisket, then slice meat of the brisket, then, we ordered chopped sandwich and chopped brisket for a potato, chopped op the fatty trimmings to serve us. It was primarily a pile of tasteless, oily, blob. If that is the way they train/supervise their food preparers, avoid this place.
Really good brisket breakfast burritos!! Can't wait to try lunch!Don't be scared of location. Super nice on inside. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Try the Texas pecan coffee!!

Saw the billboard driving down route 40.I thought, that looks good. And it was!!Really good. The ribs were excellent, the place was very clean, pleasant atmosphere, and the service was great. Got into a really interesting conversation with Morgan who runs the place. Real nice lady. If I lived nearby I would be there every week.

Food is normally good. But at 5pm I guess you get the left overs. Brisket was cold , tuff and dry. Chips were old and cold, no salt. Out of pulled pork and sausage. Potatoe salad could have more seasoning. But on the good side okra, pickles and BBQ sauce was good.

Amazing flavor.!!!Great staff but most of all you will love it The food is real !!! BBQ Not those fake stuff I got in many other places

Stopped by here on way thru Amarillo. Was really surprised at how good the bbq is since is in a travel center. Brisket had good smoked flavor and not hardly any fat. Sides of macaroni and cheese and okra were good as well. Thinking about stopping by on return trip home.
