This may be one of your best chances ever to sample some seriously next-level barbecue in Lubbock.
Let’s start at the top. Our friends at Jimenez Y Friends aren’t just good at one thing—they’ve built a reputation on doing three things exceptionally well. First, there’s their award-winning Mexican food, packed with that unmistakable, only-at-Jimenez flavor. Then you’ve got the bakery side of the operation, turning out beautiful conchas, empanadas, cookies, and more that hit both the eyes and the taste buds. And finally, there’s the barbecue—also award-winning—which has quietly become one of their most impressive offerings.
