Probably one of the top three bbq places we've eaten...... excellent pulled pork and outstanding brisket. The brisket was so tasty my wife said it didn't even need sauce! My PP sandwich didn't look big but it was a full meal! Fries were above average too. Service is friendly but after waiting in line for ten minutes and THEN being told it'd be another 30 minutes until the food was ready was a bit trying....l but it came in only 15 and allowed a chance to view their gas station full of curios. Heartily recommended!
Great fun place. Good BBQ and deserts. A trip there is not for the food. It's a journey it's an adventure. I love the Brisket sandwich. For breakfast the Tom's Brisket Stack is hard to beat. The desert!! The Pig Pen or the Our Thumb Banana Split Gary M
Our family tried out The Thumb BBQ this past weekend and it was fantastic! Each one of us had a great time. There were so many fun things to look at. The decor and atmosphere are really fun. And the shopping was so much fun! I couldn't believe how big the shopping area was and how neat all the items were. The service was super friendly. It is a fast casual restaurant. The food was sooooo good. I had the 3 Little Pigs sliders and they were phenomenal. I got some of the BBQ sauce to dip them on the side. My favorite was the brisket. When I go back, I'll probably do all brisket instead of 3 different proteins. We will definitely be back!
Such a great place to eat, shop, and enjoy a carwash or get a tank of gas! Love the brisket, and Cuban sandwich with pickles. Great beer too. Don't go there after school it can be hectic and filled with rowdy teenagers. Be a grandpa and go early to sit and enjoy the ambiance and yummy smells all around you.
Awesome food, friendly service and casual environment. The Thumb has some good BBQ and generous portions. Stopped here after hiking Tom's Thumb trail and I still had leftovers to indulge in after. Definitely worth checking out and will be back if I'm in the area again.
