BOVINE AND SWINE'S BARBECUE CO., Hobbs

I'm in Hobbs a lot, and was looking for something different besides the same places I frequent to eat. I tried this place and it is very lackluster. I had brisket, ribs, slaw and baked beans. The brisket was a little rubbery, had no smoke...ring, had no flavor and was a little under cooked. The ribs were overcooked, had no flavor or smoke taste, and it seemed more like eating pork roast. The slaw was your run of the mill chopped cabbage with sauce, nothing to brag about. The baked beans were decent, and were by far the best item on my plate. Hobbs needs a good BBQ place, there is good opportunity here for one for sure.More

Best BBQ in Hobbs

I really enjoy the bbq at Bovine. I have tried Dickies and was very disappointed. Bovine has real authentic food and the staff is so friendly and accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure that I was able to place a catering...order that would feed 14 people for under my budget. Love this place and will recommend it to anyone who asks.More

Best in a while

I had a two meat platter. I got brisket and ribs with coleslaw and beans&rice. The ribs were great. The brisket was dry needed salt while cooking. And the side were top notch. When I have to work here again I'll go back just skip...on the brisket.More

Great local spot- awesome BBQ sauce!

Classic BBQ joint atmosphere, the brisket was fantastic, the turkey was amazing, and the sausage was delicious. I'm not much of a BBQ fan but the BBQ sauce seems to make or break it for me- B&S's hot bbq sauce was fantastic! There definitely isn't...a reason to go anywhere else for BBQ while you're in Hobbs.More

Okay, nothing great

I'm surprised at the high ratings. I'm from Texas so maybe I'm a BBQ snob, but this really want very good. I suppose it's aight for a small New Mexico town, but I won't eat there again.

Best Barbeque

Great sliced brisket and their chicken is good also. Make sure you order lean cuts(brisket). Their sides are usually decent.

Great standby for me in Hobbs

I go to Bovine and Swine's a lot. Sadly this is due to the fact that there is not much to choose from in Hobbs, in my opinion. With that said, I have had mostly consistent great meal quality and always great service. A couple...of times I have gone and ordered the moist brisket and something about its texture has been amiss. Otherwise, I love their green beans and baked beans. I will continue going to this restaurant as long as I'm working in Hobbs if they stay like they are.More

Skip this place

WOW! Overpriced food and outdated inside equals SKIP this place. The food is wayyyy overpriced for a lot of fatty meat. The sauce is bland and average. The outdated inside just makes is look dirty. I'd pass on this place, would NOT go again.

Great little BBQ place

This little BBQ place is next to a pizzeria. It is a quaint little local place to enjoy some good BBQ. Portions are good sized for the money. The chicken is moist and perfectly seasoned. My hubby said the mild sausage and turkey plate was...delicious. We tried the slaw, potato salad, and red beans and rice.More

Family sandwich pack

Each time we visit Hobbs we stop here. This time we got the pulled pork family pack with 2 sides. It came with 4 large buns but we had enough meat to make 6 sandwiches. Very tasty. I gave it a 4 because I've definitely...had better BBQ in Texas. Also, I thought their tiny prep area could have been cleaner. As a business owner myself, I would expect more from my employees in the way of dress and customer relations. It just makes for a more enjoyable experience.More
