There food truck posted up at my job today!! I couldn't resist!. 2 plate combo: Lean tender brisket and Smoked sausage with cole slaw, and green chile pinto beans. The food was so good I had my colleague to go down to get me a a side of mac n cheese as she went to get here food! 😋 I was pleased. 😋 The taste was good beans right type of flavored heat. Mac n cheese taste like mines!! The owner said are you ready for the itis!! Bro, I got the itis and ready for a nap now.

I ate quickly before I could post. The BBQ is very yummy. I'll definitely return soon. $75 worth of food for lunch (2 orders of 2-meat and 3-meat and a dozen of wings) and to gift to a friend and some leftovers for dinner. I'm happy!! ❤️❤️

Me and my buddy went after work and he’s usually not impressed by most food places we go, but for here he actually enjoyed the food. Not to mention is heck of a lot cheaper than most spots and you get way better quality and quality of food. 10/10 recommend

Outstanding BBQ. It won't be fast but it will be good. Coleslaw is pretty good but the potato salad is very blah.

The absolute best barbecue I've had. THE FRIENDLIEST STAFF. 10/10. Quick turn around for food and small seating. Don't miss this place!

We ate at Papa Bears BBQ while staying in Apache Junction. A friend, also from NE recommended this place to us. What a gem! The best food, cold beer (bottle with a frosty mug no less) and amazing service! The owner was at the counter when we ordered and had some great recommendations for us! You can tell he is fully vested in his restaurant and truly cares about his customers' experience! If you are looking to support a locally owned business instead of a chain, go to Papa Bears BBQ! You won't be disappointed!

Highly recommend the three meat combo with corn bread and mac n cheese! I had brisket, pulled pork and the smoked turkey and it was delicious!

The brisket was really really good, they ask you if you want more fatty or lean, which is nice. The only complaint I have is the cornbread is extra. Your meal comes with two slice of regular sandwhich bread. I would definitely come here again. The young lady at the cash register was kind and did her job very well.

I travel here once every couple months but this is the best brisket I’ve ever had! I love that you can choose if you want a leaner or fattier cut of brisket. I always get the mix. It literally melts in your mouth. And the house smoked sausage is delicious as well.
