    This huge tray of smoked beef ribs was heavy!
    Carey T.

    I attended the recent Temecula wine and food festival this past Saturday. It was a beautiful day and big Dev's down home was one of the food trucks that were providing delicious food for the attendees. I initially did not try big Dev's barbecue as my wife wanted to have a lobster grilled cheese. I should note that there was a silent auction going on and I was able to bid and win a donation from big Dev's where he donated a huge tray of smoked barbecue beef ribs. My family loves beef ribs and so I was thrilled to be taking home his bbq. After the festival, I had a 2 Hour drive back home to West Los Angeles so I was smelling that good barbecue all the way home. Once I did get home I then opened the tray and couldn't believe how generous big Dev down-home was, there were so many bones in there with his meaty beef ribs. I eventually had a beef rib the following day for lunch and it was so delicious so well smoked great flavor. I am looking forward to making barbecue beef rib sliders for a family reunion in a couple of weeks so I'll be sure to post pictures of that on this review as well. Thank you Big Dev, can't wait to cross paths

    Amazing BBQ! The ribs fall of the bone, the chicken is full of flavor, and beans are amazing! He is usually only at street fairs, but he also does catering. If you see his booth you have to give him a try.

    $13 ribs and beans

    Their food truck was in the Sorrento Valley area. Menu was pretty small and simple. I think the menu changes daily. On the menu it was $13 for Ribs & Rolls. I ordered that and requested their sweet & spicy beans instead of the rolls. The guy was nice about it and said ok. My food was put on a regular paper plate and not a to-go box. I got 3 decent sized rib pieces but a very small portion of the beans. The ribs were ok - they weren't tender and the sauce put on it was kind of watery. The beans were really good tho. Not too bad, just disappointed with the price paid and the portion received. They take cash and credit payments.

    The meaty beans are the best.

    See all

    The chicken fell right off the bone, they have the best bbq sauce I've ever tasted and the Mac and cheese was amazing.

    We used Buckboard for a college graduation party at our home for a little over 100 guests, and…read moreeverything was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The event was held in our backyard and on our deck, and the entire team helped make it feel seamless, relaxed, and incredibly special. The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented and enjoyed by everyone. We received so many compliments from guests throughout the evening about how incredible everything tasted. The staff was equally outstanding. Fadi did an amazing job managing the flow of the event and making sure food was served according to our timeline, while also adjusting as needed as some guests arrived later than expected. Claire was fantastic behind the bar and took such great care of all of our guests throughout the evening. Isaac was also wonderful working behind the scenes handling all the details that kept everything running smoothly. The entire team was professional, accommodating, organized, and truly wonderful to work with. They made hosting a large event feel easy and stress-free, which allowed us to actually enjoy the celebration with our family and friends. We would absolutely use Buckboard again and recommend them without hesitation!

    We hired buckboard to cater our backyard wedding and everything from our initial tasting, back and…read moreforth communications and day of service was amazing. Raquel was our coordinator and she made sure all the details aligned with the needs of our wedding. The food was incredible and we even had plenty of leftovers for a gourmet meal the night after our wedding. Thank you Raquel, Anthony and Deb for making our special day so spectacular and memorable. Highly recommend buckboard to cater your next event!
