What customers say?

“ The barbecue was phenomenal although they were out of brisket when we got there. Sides were great. Carrot Dip Dip is fantastic. Some things to note: -There is no indoor seating and the outdoor seating lacks shade. -They do not have ice, so if you are getting water with your meal, expect it to be hot. You may want to order a drink rather than getting water so that it’s cold. -The dill pickles are more like bread and butter pickles, not true dills. -The staff is super nice and helpful, but with as busy as this place gets, things can be a bit slow. ”

“ Good LORD!! Everything was absolutely phenomenal. Brisket was soft and moist and the ribs had a delicious and beautiful layer of spices crusted on top. The bbq sauce was YUMMY! All the sides were so unique and flavorful. We got the broccoli salad, sweet potato salad, and the corn salad. They added such a nice freshness paired with the meats. The PICKLES!!! Omg. I should have ordered more. We arrived on a Friday night around 6:00 and there was no wait. Ample outdoor seating, and cool vibes. ”

“ Delicious BBQ! Ribs fell right off the bone and were seasoned to perfection! The turkey was also delicious! First time having sweet potato salad and I was not disappointed... It was awesome! Washed it all down with an ice cold beer just topped off the experience! ”

“ What? No brisket? Wasn’t even on the menu, which was a shocker since all the reviews bragged about it, and the reason we spent our 1 dinner there while in Marfa. Tri-tip was just ok, but it’s a poor meat choice for bbq. Where’s the brisket?!. Sauce provided was just ok. Dip dip was tasty. Potato salad sweet and surprisingly tasty. Cornbread was outstanding. All outdoor seating which is nice, but it looked like they had indoor seating that they weren’t using - prob fear from Covid days, but I think we’re past that. Seems our expectations were too high. 4 stars is generous by Texas BBQ standards. ”

“ Delicious BBQ and great service! We went during spring break, and the food was great. The brisket was really good, and the all beef frito sausage was one of a kind. If you like pickles, ask for the extra side order…the pickles are made there! Convenience West is listed in Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ list, and lives up to the ranking. Definitely plan to stop here if you’re visiting West Texas/Marfa. I believe it’s only open Friday and Saturday evenings! There is no indoor dining, you’ll park, get in line, order food at the front. Picnic tables are outside! The BBQ was worth the wait! ”

“ Brisket was moist, cooked perfectly and cut in generous slices. The sauce had the perfect level of spice. The brisket boudin sausage had a great balance of flavors and texture. The homemade pickles and onions were delicious and the sides - sweet potato salad, garlic green beans and the carrot dip - were thoroughly enjoyable. The weather was crisp and cool so we ate at one of the outside tables and loved how everything came out on treys so deliciously arranged. It’s clear the owner is tremendously talented and takes great care in creating an unforgettable BBQ experience in Marfa. Highly recommend! ”

“ The most divine BBQ I've ever had, hands down, no doubt. The brisket here is heavenly: moist and incredibly tender, with a buttery quality that insists you say "wow!!" after each.and.every.bite. The collard greens are true Collard Queens, with a sweetness that elevates then to some next level kinda veggies. Even the veggie garnishes are amazing, particularly the pickled red onions. Please, do yourself a favor and experience this flavor firsthand. It may just be the best decision you make all year. ”
