    Best bbq in Chico hands down. The Carolina Mustard based sauce is fantastic. The service is amazing as well this guy really loves the food that he makes and it shows. If you drive by and see the truck outside I highly suggest stopping by.

    Friendly and kind service had the pulled pork sand-which was excellent and the smoked macaroni and cheese along with the potato salad and wow amazing. the smoked macaroni and cheese is the real deal. One thing to keep in mind the food is good and goes quickly. Also the Food is reasonably priced.

    First off, so friendly!! They had a big smile on their face and really passionate about what they are doing. Great prices, AMAZING food. Super flavorful. Definitely Recommend!

    Pulled pork sandwich, combo with sweet beans and mac & cheese.

    Bootleg BBQ is hands down some of the best food in all of Chico and is 100% the best BBQ spot in town. I've been coming here for the past 4 years as a student here at Chico state and Keith has been such a kind person throughout the years. Bootleg BBQ also catered my graduation party and their prices were extremely reasonable. If you're looking for some amazing food at great prices you've found the right spot.

    Carolina style pulled pork, smoked nac and cheese, baked beans.  This was AMAZING.

    Run by the truck all the time. Finally took the time to stop. Fast service. Free dessert (not pictured). Amazing flavor in the pork. Beans with meat and spices mixed in. Mac was still rich and creamy. Will definitely be back

    Rib combo plate with BBQ sauce, Mac & cheese and garlic smashed potatoes. Yum!!!

    The food here is amazing! I'm addicted. I order the rib combo plate with Mac and cheese and garlic smashed potatoes. My sauce choice is the BBQ. I also order the pork chop, which is gigantic, and have the owner chop it My sauce choice is the very tasty horseradish cream sauce. All for $19.50 and enough for 3 meals. This is a wonderful value and a big treat! I highly recommend anyone to eat here!!! The owner is a super nice guy also

    We finally ate here on our most recent visit to Chico, since we love barbecue. This apparently is…read morean offshoot of a place in San Luis Obispo, as we discovered. Anyway, the place was very good and satisfying, albeit not outstanding, and the prices reasonable for the amount of food provided, and the sides are included. The ribs are great, but not outstanding. I got the full rack combo, with three different sauces: Sweet Carolina, Mo's Memphis, and Philthy Phils Sauce. The meat was well cooked and had nice smoky flavour, while the barbecue sauces were all very good and each quite different from the other. They also put just a judicious amount of sauce on the ribs, rather than drowning them in sauce, so the sauce complements the smoked mea, as it should. However, the ribs are little sparse and some parts were a bit dry, not as meaty and moist is the best are. 4 stars overall. The brisket was similarly very good, plenty of meat, smoky, with nice sauce. The sides - coleslaw, beans, corn bread, potato salad, were all good. The coleslaw was (again - see my other reviews) made with pre-shredded mix but at elast was prepared pretty well, with a proper amount of dressing and allowed to sit long enough to be pretty good. 3.5 stars. The beans and potato salad were all very good and enjoyable, although somewhat unmemorable (4 stars). The corn bread was fine but they provided cinnamon butter instead of honey butter, an odd choice fore which we did not care. They have self-serve fountain drinks and a decent beer selection. The place itself is a basic dining place, fine inside, with barbecue memorabilia, etc., and overall pleasant seating. Service was good. We would gladly go back if seeking barbecue when in Chico. Overall, this is a good basic barbecue place, nothing outstanding or special, but very good and enjoyable.

They have recently been added to the Secret Trail Brewing Company's food pop up rotations on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. I wanted to try all the meats but settled with the pulled pork sandwich topped with pig candy coleslaw and a side of German potato salad. + The sandwich's flavor was great. The pulled pork, coleslaw, and house made bbq sauce married perfectly. I struggled for a bit to find the bits of "pig candy" but when you do, it just adds another layer of texture and porkiness to the sandwich. + The German potato salad was not what I expected. Instead of mayonnaise, it's mixed with vinegar making it a welcomed, acidic accompaniment to the sandwich. - They were a bit slow to start off. I arrived around 4; they needed another 30 minutes. - I don't think they are fully equipped to handle the weather outside for a food stand as my pulled pork could've been warmer. I'm rooting for y'all! All in all the food was delicious, the issues are minor and could be improved over time.

Tonight though, the food was next level. To set the scene, the line was out the door when I arrived, but they were flying through customers. I had thankfully placed an online order & saw it ready & waiting for me. My patience was also at a miraculous high. Blessings for all. My husband got the chicken combo plate, and he has a full meals worth of food left over for tomorrow, which is thankfully typical here. In this economy?? Yes please. The katsu was so juicy and crunchy, the bbq chicken was equally tender with a good char in places. I got a poke bowl, and I swear to god in heaven the girl who made this bowl was placed on this earth to bless my dinner tonight. I need also to go back and get her skin care routine. We ordered extra sauce and they literally 3x what we paid for. ETA for the online order was 15 mins, I walked in after 14 & my food was ready. They easily has 10 tickets they were actively working through, and as stated a line out the door. The food was impeccable. Biggest shout outs to the kitchen, those guys can cook some fantastic chicken & rice. Another round of applause for the angel making poke bowls tonight. 12/10 would & do recommend.
