My go-to order is the beef rib with the sauce on the side and the French fries cooked well done. It never disappoints. Be prepared--there can be a line, especially during busy times--but it's well worth the wait. The staff keeps things moving efficiently, and the service is always friendly and on point. If you ever find yourself in San Diego, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it!

Mac and his crew showed up right on time, were incredibly professional, and came fully prepared with everything needed for catering. The food was fantastic and they kept the line moving smoothly all night. More people showed up than we had originally anticipated, and while I was getting nervous, Mac handled everything with total grace. He was prepared and made sure we were still able to feed everyone without any issues. I would highly recommend Hefty Boy BBQ Catering to anyone looking for a reliable and delicious caterer.

Now let's talk food... the brisket was out of this world! Tender, flavorful, and just the right amount of smokiness. Paired with the coleslaw (so fresh and delicious) and their BBQ sauce that was sweet but not overpowering, the whole combo was dynamite. I even had to snap a "before" pic of the plate--and let's just say the "after" pic didn't survive because it was THAT good! They were out of dessert during our visit, but I'll definitely be back to try that cinnamon and lemon pound cake that customers around us were raving about. Big shoutout to Vi and to Penelope (I believe she was the cook that day) for serving up not just a meal, but an experience. The layout was super cool and very clean. I never knew this place was in Alpine but I found my new barbecue spot. Definitely come and support as they are a hidden gem We'll 100% be back soon--thanks again for the warm hospitality and amazing food!

Heard about this place from Gareth Eats and Marvelous Muncher, they did not lead me astray! My wife and kid can be pretty picky. For the amount of food we ordered, we would usually have leftover, but we finished the whole thing! * 2 lbs of chicken - so juicy, great taste, especially with that BBQ sauce. My wife usually complains that BBQ is so salty, or too vinegary, not this time. She loved it! * Mac and cheese - Creamy! Cheesy! Good! * Coleslaw - fresh, I think there's a light vinaigrette. I usually like mayo on mine, but I can see how this pairs better with the rest of the food. * Potato Salad - solid, not too salty as well. Just right! * Beans and Rice - I think I should've gone large on this one. So good! * Peach Cobbler - legit. Warm. Peachy. Cobblery. * Sweet Potato Pie - I was surprised, because I usually am not a fan of sweet potato. Tasty, not too sweet! Mr. Coop checked in with us once in a while to make sure we're all good, stopped by and gave me a sample of the bacon. Sweet, real tasty! I'm excited to come back and try the ribs and brisket! Smelled so good coming in!

They have around 4 giant tables inside, so you may have to ask someone if you wanna join them to eat there inside. I had the following below: *Pork Ribs: 3/5 - The ribs were just rough. There wasnt enough flavor and honestly i had to keep drowning in bbq sauce to enjoy them. *Beef Brisket: 5/5 - Honestly the star of the show. So juicy, so tender, literally falls apart. The bbq sauce is a sweet yet tangy flavor and really complemented the combination well. *Pulled Pork: 4/5 - Solid pulled pork. Juicy and soft, spreads apart easily. With the bbq sauce compliments it very well. *Mac N Cheese: 4/5 - Its cheesy, less creamy. It's a solid mac n cheese but I have had better elsewhere or even homemade. This was their packaged meal deal and honestly for $103 it's pretty pricey. This was 3lbs of meat and 2 large sides. I wanted to try a bit of everything just to say I tried it. Overall I would just come back to this spot for the brisket. I think a brisket sandwich would've been better. It's a solid spot.

I believe they give you the option of coleslaw or fries if you get a combo. I'm glad this place exists in Mexico, though the food in Mexico is great, it's really a nice change up from your tacos, burritos, menudo and other traditional Mexican dishes. Love, love, love the seasonings used on the chicken. I must admit I'm addicted to the chicken! The owner John and his wife Doreena are awesome and very friendly which makes all the difference and you do look forward to coming back.
