I love this place, their brisket is amazing and the sandwich buns they have are so good. But as good as their BBQ is I just cannot stop myself from getting the red chili burrito with cheese every time I go there. Somehow it is one of the best burritos I have ever had. Also their rice is really good too. I feel like the prices are reasonable although it can get busy on Friday and Saturday night, but it is worth the wait and if you go during the week the service is very fast.

Quirky little place in a citrus grove. Easy to miss driving by. But the often full lot, and cars parked on both sides of the road, should be clue. Buck's is popular for a reason. Fairly simple menu. A small selection of BBQ items, and some Mexican. Good BBQ - tasty meats and sauces. Decent Mexican - kinda different, but OK. Simple walk up service at a window. Outdoor bench seating. Watch the hours, as they close early. Staff are great, very personable and welcoming. Go there a few times, and they will probably know your name.

The brisket sandwich is great! Most places butcher brisket and overcook it but Jalapeno bucks really knows how to do it right and my wife loves their macaroni salad! It's a very popular eating place so you need to show up before noon if you don't want to wait too long. Also it's all outdoor seating so it's also best to visit during the winter months if you want to stay and eat. I also love the location and setting right there in the orange groves!

Wonderful! The best I've had in Arizona the 20 years we've lived here. Smoke ribs on Saturday are so tender. The brisket sandwich is over the top!! Unique setting. There is a wait to get to the window to order but well worth it!!

The food here is amazing and they truly make it their own "Arizona Style BBQ" If you are a fan of smoked meats, this is your place. The brisket has to be my favorite. All of the meat is melt in your mouth tender and the mango salsa...of the mango salsa, it is like dessert on a chip. Could be a bit less sweet but stands out on its own. Be sure to ask them for a sampling of their salsas and sauces if it is your first time. The 5.00 for the bag of chips is worth it along with the pint of salsa also 5.00 (I wish they had a smaller size, but it has never gone to waste). Highly recommend that you call your order in. There is usually a wait to order and limited area to wait. Once summer hits you will definitely want to call ahead! They have it where you can sign up for their email and specials for freebies...I have been signed up forever and other than the like clockwork message telling you that ribs are ready on Saturday--there have been no specials no freebies no discounts daily weekly or otherwise...actually on time around the holidays they had a special to close out their supply before closing for vacation that was a great deal. As for service, and the reason I am unable to give five stars...when calling in, whomever answers the phone is usually very kind accommodating and polite...but once you get there and go to the window to pay there is one young woman there in particular who is always so extremely rude. I am taking the time drive 20 min to go here to spend my time waiting after calling it in and spending 60 dollars on BBQ the least she can do is not speak over me while I ask for sauce that I want not what you think I want. Every time same person, always short, always seems exasperated at having to deal with people. She ruins my experience every time. Rated on the food alone a definite 5 stars. Consistently awesome! She unfortunately is consistently rude.
