Kansas City-style BBQ featuring ribs, brisket, and burnt ends
"Stateline Road Smokehouse is mixing up the Bay Area’s mostly Texas-style BBQ scene. That means Kansas City-style burnt ends, fall-apart tender baby back ribs, and brisket covered in a wonderful tangy-sweet sauce. But the smoked meats are only part of the draw to this smoked meat oasis in Napa’s Rail Arts District, whether you’re just a block away or stumble in wine-soaked. Their sides, like the silky mac and cheese or the luscious, tomato-packed Rancho Gordo beans and greens, are stars, and the boozy slushies never disappoint. This place is huge with an umbrella-filled patio and has friendly table service after you order at the counter, meaning it’s where to bring a big group and set aside a few hours." - christina julian, lani conway, jasmine alexandra

"Napa waited patiently for the debut of chef Darryl Bell’s barbecue spot, and now it’s finally here serving Kansas City-style barbecue for the masses. It has classic dishes with notable touches, such as Rocky free-range barbecue chicken; hickory-smoked Black Angus beef brisket; natural, hormone-free pork baby back ribs; and burnt ends. Don’t skip the Rancho Gordo beans and greens, made with braised collard greens and heirloom Mayocoba beans, or the coleslaw." - Flora Tsapovsky
"A restaurant recognized for its chef, Darryl Bell, who is a semifinalist in the Best Chef: California category." - Dianne de Guzman
"Chef Darryl Bell and business partner Jeremy Threat have been creeping toward the opening of Stateline Road Smokehouse." - Lauren Saria
