The old school furniture feels so nostalgic. The order at the counter and get your food was a little different but works well and food was served fast. But let's face it! I'm not there because of the building our counter service. I came for the brisket! How good could it be anyway? Melt in your mouth good! It's officially reached the top 3 in San Diego for me! I'd go back again and again even without table service and no margaritas! This place would probably be on regular rotation for me if they had a full bar.

My father got their flier and was in the mood for BBQ. My mom threw away the flier, but remembered it was around Madison Avenue. We drove around and found the place. My mother and I were a bit skeptical if this was gonna be good because we're picky about BBQ- barbecue is either really good or it's not. They gave my parents a tester and liked it! Luckily they took cash or Venmo We ordered: Full Rack of BBQ Ribs $25 perfect for 3 people, a side of macaroni and cheese $5, and two sides of coleslaw salad $5/each. We ate it at home and Oh.My. God my dad used to work for Phil's BBQ and says this was WAY BETTER!! It was so tender, juicy, the meat comes off the bone easily, and they have BBQ sauce that's is spicy or not which is great! All in all. I am satisfied beyond belief and would happily return to purchase more of this great quality BBQ for my family or for future gatherings

There was a food truck (trailer) in a O'Reilly Auto Parts parking lot in Lemon Grove on a Friday. I saw a sign next to it advertising BBQ but didn't think much of it. When I saw a few folks coming and going from it, I thought I'd give it a shot. Let me tell you the food truck may not look like much from the outside but the food coming out of it is the bomb! He has a specials board next to his main menu. I tried the Texas Brisket Sandwich (which included one side) . All I can say is, OH "LAWD"! The flavor/seasoning is off the hook and the beef was tender. The amount of meat in the sandwich seemed generous too. I ordered the same thing for mom who's from Texas. Even she praised it and she's as tough of a critic as it gets. He has a smoker grill right there on his trailer. Highly recommend! The only problem is tracking the man down. His food truck isn't around on a daily basis, so I suggest you have a backup plan if he's not there.

It was ok, I wouldnt say its the best bbq I've tried, the baked beans were good, had a smokey flavor, unsure if that was the taste they were going for, but one of my sons wasnt a huge fan and he loves baked beans.

Believe the bad reviews for the food. The service was fine and regardless of how bad I say the food…read morewas and it was horrible, the on duty manager did comp the meal and I am appreciative of that although not expecting that it would be comped. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich combo tha came with two sides and a drink. I'll start with the sides. I got bbq baked beans for one. If anyone tells me those beans were not straight out of a can they should be checked. Bush's Baked Beans from a can would be disrespected if they got mistaken for these beans. The other side was greens. The positive, they were green. They were flavorless, dry and cold. Now let me get to the pulled pork sandwich. It literally should have been called the greasiest puddle of pork sandwich. The sandwich was so greasy that I thought the juice from the greens had flowed over the edge of the box and into the side where the sandwich sat. But no, I could not have been that lucky. The bbq sauce they have is also again and you guessed it flavorless. I can eat a flavorless meal. I can eat a cold meal. I can't eat a terrible meal and that is what this place provided start to finish. Not to mention we ordered a brisket sausage combo plate with mac and cheese and baked beans. You guessed it, runny flavorless mac and cheese. The sausage looked like a bratwurst it was almost pale. And there was no smoke on the brisket. It says 12 hours smoked...shame.

This family makes legit smoked meat!! I'm a bbq snob that always struggles to find great bbq and smoked meats in SD. Most of my family lives in Texas so we usually load up on brisket and ribs when we go. Now we don't have to go that far. Got the ribs today. Great smoke ring, terrific flavor, very juicy, and the bbq sauce is delicious and doesn't try to steal the show. He let me try the brisket too, and it is amazing. I'll get that next time. Potato salad is a great side. We will be coming back many times! Go out of your way to try their bbq. Outstanding!!!

Sausage was also very good. Juicy, a little bit of spice and smokey. Chicken was also very good. Bone-in chicken thighs with a good but not overwhelming char. Retained much if its moisture. Pulled pork was probably my least favorite. It wasn't bad but overshadowed by the other phenomenal items. Sauce was good. Too full to eat the sides so I can't comment on that. Amazing food. Great value. Big fan.

I was fortunate enough to run into this true natured BBQ food vendor at the Burning Beard Brewery…read more The proprietor cooks all his meats the traditional way with hot flavored smoke. In fact, he smokes the meats inside modified re-engineered barrels that had been expertly designed for BBQ. I could not help myself and I ordered the smoked tri tip nachos that not only came with heavenly medium temped smoked tr tip, but with a house made baked bean made with beer. The tri tip was very well prepared and had a mild smoky flavor brought on by the quality avocado wood locally harvested and supplied by avocado growers. The meat was a perfectly smoked and was very tender and had the right moisture level. The smoked meat was topped with a drizzle of tasty BBQ sauce and laid over the the homemade baked beans and crispy tortilla chips. The beans were tender, well seasoned, and had a subtle flavor of a craft beer. Well done. The nachos came with a handsome amount of crispy tortilla chips, but one thing these nachos needed was perhaps a light garnish of chopped peppery scallions or a light sprinkle of finely shredded cheese, not just for color but for that little extra flavor profile. The gent running the smoked meat shop or real BBQ haven was a gent and quite informative regarding his trade.

I love some great BBQ, and am extra fond of the Tri-Tip he makes. I have had it several times and it's always just perfect. So tender and the flavor is always on-point. He switches up the kind of wood he cooks it over and the sauce he uses over the meat is paired perfectly with whatever you're drinking at the breweries! The quantity of food is excellent. You truly get what you pay for. If you spend $12 on nachos, you're getting $12 worth of food, which is something very rare to find nowadays. As you can see from my photo, the nachos are loaded, which I absolutely love. (Definitely enough to share! And I'm not someone that normally likes to share my food!) Same goes for the Tri-Tip sandwich. He always ensures there is more meat than bread.. that's how you do it! So grab a few friends, get some brews, and try out the Carver, Coal & Barrel! You will not be disappointed and if you're anything like my friends and I, you'll be craving it frequently!
