Love this place! Great spot to have some BBQ and have a couple of beers with your friends. Happy hour is from 2pm to 5pm Monday to Friday. Best of all, they serve beers in cold schooners.

The place definitely lives up to the name. This is the BEST bbq in Santa Barbara! The meat is slow cooked and so tender. The tri tip is amazing and their beef ribs are to die for. Each of their sides are delicious and their hot bbq sauce is some of the best bbq sauce I’ve had. Their bowls are a game changer and super filling! The staff is great and the owners are super friendly. If you’re looking for some good BBQ, this is the spot to go to.
