The Barbecue Pit

Homey vibes. Bbq cooked well. The sauce was a little extra sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Excellent fries. Meat falling off the ribs. Juicy chicken. Kids inhaled the mac n cheese. Everyone was happy and so full I might not eat another meal until about 24 hours after that one 😅

The brisket was super tender and tasty and the beef stew was excellent!

I've gone to the location in La Mesa for years and have never had any issues with portion, quality, or taste. Even the customer service is great in the La Mesa Location. However, for the first time, the National City location disappointed me. The beans were cold, the corn bread was cold, portion seemed soo much smaller than usual. The Mac and cheese had no flavor. To top it off the cashier seemed like she didn't even want to be there. I'm definitely sticking to the La Mesa Location from now on.

I love barbecue and I almost consider myself a barbecue aficionado but I think I am fair when I evaluate the food . The ribs were Very tender with a nice smoke ring. However they did not have a lot of flavor like no dry rub or seasoning was applied The chicken was cooked to perfection and tender. The macaroni and cheese was lukewarm. The staff was friendly in accommodating for the most part. I would give this place a second chance if I’m in the area.
