For all of you Arizonians out there I have the BEST recommendation for BBQ. Not only is it fantastic BBQ, but it’s the most relaxing setting for a resturant I’ve ever enjoyed. The name is Joe’s Farm Grill.
They use as much food from their local farm as possible, and try to keep it as wholesome and natural as possible. The result: Deliciousness…hmmm… It’s off of Higley and Ray; I know for some of us it’s kinda far, but trust me, it’s well worth it!
It’s set on an actual old farm, so it has that cool serene look like you just walked out the back porch door into a fresh, cool yard. Lots of trees and picnic tables.
The best time to go is around 7:30pm, just when it’s starting to get cool and dark, and they have strung lights to give the place a nice soft evening look.
My recommendation: Go in and ask for the Pork BBQ sandwich, with a side of sweet potatoe fries, and down it all with a delicious Root Beer Float.
Another great thing about it is… you’ll never guess… but the BATHROOM!
It’s like walking into a time warp, or Space Odessey. It has a little TV above the urinal (it’s a boys and girls bathroom), and the tv plays episodes of “Stingray” over and over all day. Now, if you’re my age you don’t even remember “Stingray” (apperantly Ben’s Dad does, and my Grandpa does too), it’s an old puppet TV show, no not a kids show and not muppets, but puppets. Take a look see…
even alien puppets…
You have to go and take a look for yourself. It’s the greatest.
Tell ‘em Crystal sent ‘ya. JK, don’t tell them that, I’ve just always wanted to say that.
P.S. – The only bad thing is that they close at 9pm, so dont’ get there too late.
