BBQ Is Only As Good As The Meat And The Pitmaster.

Before the first mop of bbq sauce, Stubby’s begins by selecting the choicest cuts of meats. Food and Wine magazine says Stubby’s helps keep Arkansas on the barbeque map. It’s not just the sauce, we pick the best beef brisket and ribs, pork loin and shoulder as well as chicken and ham.

 

BBQ pitmaster Chris Dunkel’s choice of hickory to smoke our meats makes all the difference. He blends the barbecue styles from Texas and Tennessee, turning them into our own award-winning bbq style. Chris has been working at Stubby’s since the early 80’s after his parents purchased it in 1976. He has worn every hat at Stubby’s and knows the bbq business and Arkansas style bbq from the inside out. 

 

Chris is just a part of the storied history of Stubby’s BBQ and his success as pitmaster is why the story is still going on. His skills at the pit are the reason why people from all over the country make Hot Springs their Arkansas destination.
