The best BBQ!!
The food is so delicious!!
Tri Tip, Ribs, Sandwiches, sides.... everything is tasty!!
I wish they were open during the week!!
Way better BBQ than all those chain restaurants!!

Pulled chicken sandwich is simple and delicious! I favor the bbq chicken and pork ribs. I can't wait to try the beef rib.... one of my favorites! The atmosphere is a no fuss backyard BBQ feel. Service is great. It's only open a few days a week so I'm sure it's a place the neighborhood looks forward to weekly.

Hidden off the 152 and sixth Street. We were looking for a for a pizza place, but found this barbecue place and decided to have tri tip. The sandwiches were huge and fed 2 people. They split it and gave us chips and a pickle on each plate.
They also sold large party party packs up to $200 with ribs tri-tip chicken hot links. The sandwich that fed two people was $20. The girl at the counter was friendly. Sign at the door said no dogs.

Pulled pork and pulled chicken sandwiches were delicious. Ate here while driving from the bay area to the central valley. Will definitely stop here again!

Code 7. You receive ALL the fabulous smoked meats and sides. Hands down great deal. Pulled pork, ribs, tri tip and chicken. Enough for two hearty eaters. Sides are mararoni salad, coleslaw, potato salads bread and the baked beans.
Amazing meats as usual. The tri tip so soft and succulent and Smokey. The chicken was a quarter; I got leg meat. Half dozen ribs. Pulled pork was probably 1/3 pound in a soup cup container. And the beans!! Just excellent flavor and loaded with meat. They keep me coming back.
Best BBQ in the west.

This place is tucked away behind an oil change center. Parking is small but you can find street parking if full.
The bbq is very good. The ribs were cooked just right, nice bbq sauce amount.
Potato salad was okay, not my favorite though, the macaroni salad was Simple homemade style.
EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!!
Thanks to the staff!

Boys vs BBQ! Great food and good service! Lots of menu options. They also offer S'mores at your table!

Passing thru on the way to the bay & stopped here on a whim since it was right next to 7/11. So happy we made the stop and got to try this incredible food! Seriously- it was fantastic! We tried the ribs and the small pulled pork sandwich. Everything was hot and fresh & the sauces were amazing. I think we tried all of them, but the original and spicy ones were our favorites. Saw a couple salads being delivered to a table when I was in there and those look very impressive as well. Service was kind and courteous and we'd be happy to stop again on our way to the National Parks.
