San Diego’s Best Barbecue Restaurants | Eater San Diego

"A popular catering company since 1989, Buckboard’s brick-and-mortar draws in crowds thanks to its dry-rubbed, smoked, and slow-cooked ribs, plus beer on tap. Open from Thursday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., make this your next weekend dining destination when searching for all types of meat platters: chicken, pork, sausage, tri-tip, and baby back ribs. To save a few bucks, come here during happy hour (from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.) for $2 off appetizers — like the pork belly sliders — beer and wine, and $5 off pitchers. For dessert, try the bread pudding that gets zig-zagged with caramel and dusted with bits of streusel." - Paolo Bicchieri
