If It's Not Smoked, It's Not Barbeque



At Brett’s BBQ There’s Only One Mission in Mind...
Make the Best Food Possible.


The Brett’s BBQ motto is "If It’s Not Smoked, It’s Not Barbeque", and we stand by this claim whole-heartedly. In order to achieve that authentic southern barbeque flavor, we have hickory wood shipped in from out of state, and smoke the meat right here in our kitchen. All of our meats are hand rubbed with our special blend of spices, then slow-cooked in the smoker for up to 16 hours. To finish it off we add our all-original Brett’s BBQ Sauce which we make daily from scratch. In fact, virtually everything on our menu is made from scratch onsite at the restaurant. Juicy, tender beef & chicken, flavorful pork, meaty ribs, fresh salad, and a generous list of hearty appetizers will delight even the most discerning of barbeque connoisseurs. And make sure to leave room for desert because our down home bread pudding served with a delectable whiskey sauce should not be missed.

Our restaurants use only the best available ingredients, cook the food to perfection, and always provide our customers with friendly service. We never skimp. We’re not a chain or a franchise. We’re just two guys who care about food, and doing it the right way. We don’t advertise or send you junk mail. We simply let the food speak for itself. So if you’re in the neighborhood stop in and see us. Taste for yourself why we’ve been called San Diego’s most Authentic BBQ!
