Craft barbecue near the Riverside corridor with smoked brisket, pulled pork, and ribs that benefit from low-and-slow attention and a proprietary rub the pitmaster developed over years of competition cooking. The sides — jalapeño cream corn, smoked mac, and vinegar slaw — are scratch-made and perfectly calibrated to complement the meats. The picnic tables fill at lunch and the smoker runs out by early evening.
