We were in town for a softball tournament and decided to give this restaurant a shot. As a BBQ cook myself, I went for the platter meal to give each item a try. I was impressed with their presentation, definitely not shy with portions ( a plus!). I couldn't help but notice their sharp smoke ring on their items, helping me identify that their cook was really slow and steady ( the right way). Best item on their platter was their brisket. Perfecting a juicy cut and serving with the with the right temperature is not so easy to do. Cuddos to their establishment and their team. Definitely a well ran place. Well done guys. read more

Food was great! Matt our server was great as well! The Caesar salad with trip tip is a must.

Matt was awesome. Delicious food. Sat outside weather was great. Good beer and great BBQ. Definitely don't miss out.

Ordered Breakfast Burritos from Cornerstone.. WOW!!! I am not going to lie, I was impressed with the burritos.. I called in an order for two breakfast burritos.. The lady that answered the phone was really nice and helping place the order for pick up. I ordered a pork butt breakfast burrito and a jalapeno sausage breakfast burrito.. When I arrived the staff were super friendly and welcoming.. You can smell the barbecue as soon as you walk in.. After paying and receiving the bag with the two burritos (Was Somewhat Heavy) I was thanked by the staff and invited to come back.. Now on to the food.. I had shared the burritos with my wife and let me tell you, they did not disappoint.. I did like the pork butt burrito better but both were Really Good! That sauce they give you (I got mine on the side as I have never had it before) was AWESOME.. Totally sent the burritos over the top.. Should bottle that sauce and sell it.. Thank You Cornerstone for a great experience.. We definitely will be back.. read more

Cornerstone BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Beaumont, California

I hate leaving negative reviews, but I feel it's important to share my experience. I ate at the Beaumont location and unfortunately got food poisoning afterward. On a separate occasion, my mother-in-law ate at the Yucaipa location and also experienced food poisoning. The pork belly burritos are absolutely delicious, which makes this even more disappointing. However, after our experiences, I don't feel comfortable returning. I hope the restaurant takes food safety seriously and addresses any issues. Also the service wasn't the best at the Beaumont locations.. been to both by the way but I got food poisoning from the recently opened location in Beaumont and both places service was not the best!! At the Yucaipa location they are very welcoming and nice! read more

I'm back with a review (after my 1st review being 2 years ago) To see this once a single location that'd open for the day only to sell out within hours to now having 4 ( i believe) locations is pretty outstanding! Love to watch my fellow neighbors/community blossom & grow! Visiting their recent newest location which is a very blocks down from the now closed 1st location. Loving the atmosphere. They took which was an older closed down Mexican food restaurant dark and gloomy to a western feeling vibe. Plenty of seating , even outside dining. We were immediately greated, seated and got food within 15 minutes of waiting. We shared a trinity platter, we had brisket & chicken, baked brisket beans, beef tallow fries , rolls, and chicken. To complete our meal we had a banana pudding desert. Brisket was tender and flavorful Chicken was good, not dry Beans were bursting with flavor a hint of spiciness Fries were the perfect crunch (& love that there made with tallow) Rolls ehh just your Hawaiian roll - next time we'll try the cornbread. They garnished the platter with some picked onions and pickles. Lastly we shared the banana pudding. I do think this NEEDS fresh sliced bananas especially for the selling price, it they added that it would be AMAZING. Sauces; Ghost was flavorful-the husbands fave a lil too much heat for me but not over powering Doms sweet tooth is awesome on the sweeter side but my fave Kansas City bbq sauce- is def one of a kind. The menu is full of options. I'm definitely happy for Cornerstone and love seeing there growth. read more

I cannot speak to the Redlands of Yucaipa locations but Beaumont will be my forever home. And, I waited four years for this location to reopen and they totally exceeded my expectations. I have nothing but 5,000,000 stars to rate every possible question I could answer for this review. The food is off the chain and the flavors and textures are phenomenal. We had brisket that melted in your mouth, sausages with pleasant jalapeño heat, scrumptious creamy potato salad with chunks of bacon and dill, hard boiled eggs and mayo, corn salad and my favorite side dish: dill pickles and red onions pickled in apple cider vinegar. Run. Don't walk to this place. It will restore your faith in humanity. UPDATE: For Mothers Day I ordered all three of the same sides for our family party. I mistakenly ordered from their catering staff which was unnecessary and more costly. Hubby went to the Beaumont location and was told the catering building was at a different site. Staff were extraordinary and prepared an order for us right there and threw in many extras taking our experience and gratitude to a whole other level. Our heartfelt thanks to Diane who hooked us up. We are grateful for your assistance with a situation that could have gone in so many directions. read more

Cornerstone BBQ - Potato Salad, Corn Salad and Red onions & Dill pickles, scratch beef ribs and pork ribs with Cornerstone's BBQ Sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Beaumont, California

It's always a pleasant experience here. Knowing this place now versus when they started and how it started is a good lesson for a small business owner on how to operate a restaurant. They're consistent with their good food and with their customer service. It's funny seeing influencer videos and their reviews because they offer little insight other than their sound effects and faces from the goodness. This is a real deal review from a person who's been coming in since day one. I've had all the barbecue they have to offer. It's all incredibly good, but I often come in for their steaks now. They are made just right. They're super flavorful and seasoned perfectly. If any place has deserved to expand they way they have, it's these owners. I offer love and respect to them. Thank you for the good, consistent experience every time I come in. read more

This is our go to spot whenever we have friends visiting! We love the barbecue and we're excited that they moved to a restaurant style location, where we can bring family and friends! We came for brunch and wanted to try new things. My partner got that Chilaquiles Verde and I got the French toast. My partners loved how that Chilaquiles had a kick and thought it was great it had brisket on the side. I thought the French toast were extremely underwhelming. The canned fruit on top in syrup made it overly sweet an artificial. Fresh fruit would have made the dish so much better. Of course, breakfast burrito and meat fries are the go to. We had to get those too! It was about $90 before tip. Overall, stick to the savory. Get the meat fries and breakfast burritos!!! We will be back for them! read more

What a little surprise on our way to AZ. We were looking for a fast food place to just get something to eat on the road. My son found this place and we decided to give it a try. I'm so glad we didn't stop by a fast food place. Not much of detour. Like 3 min away once you get off the freeway. You can smell the bbq right when you get out your car! We were welcomed right when we walked in. Everyone was super friendly. The restaurant was nice with a cowboy theme to it. We all tried something different. BBQ BREAKFAST BURRITO $16.50 Scrambled eggs, bell pepper, cheddar cheese, and fries My daughter got the pulled pork burrito with home fried potatoes instead of the fries. She loved it! The pulled pork was tender and packed with flavor. BBQ BREAKFAST SANDWICH pork belly $14.99, Bacon $13.99 Brioche buns with scrambled eggs & cheddar cheese, your choice of protein, served with home-style potatoes or hash browns. My son got the pork belly breakfast sandwich. Omg, the pork belly was amazing! So good. I got the bacon breakfast sandwich. Ok, I did enjoy my sandwich. But I'm not going to lie. I was a little let down. I was expecting thick cut bacon. Something with a smoked bbq flavor. What I got was regular thin sliced bacon. After tasting the pork belly and brisket. The bacon wasn't the right choice I should've made. BBQ CHILAQUILES $23.50 brisket Tortilla chips, smothered in green sauce, served with your choice of eggs, sour, cream cotija cheese, My husband got the chili verde chilaquiles with the brisket. Now that brisket was amazing. So tender and flavorful. It pulled apart so easily. FRENCH TOAST $12.00 2 french toast, butter, powdered sugar, maple syrup and whipped cream The French toast was ok. My daughter asked for no maple syrup and they didn't put it on. But they also didn't put the whipped cream either or powder sugar on it, So they looked kinda plain. It was also kinda dry. And if there wasn't any of the fruit with syrup on it, the French toast would've been really dry. Overall this bbq restaurant meat was really good. And I would definitely come back and try their lunch/dinner menu items. Pros: Nice and welcoming Clean bathrooms Food came out fast Cons: No sugar free syrup (For diabetics) And just my personal preference (No thick cut bacon) read more

This BBQ shop inside the Redlands public market is outstanding! Great service, carefully crafted bbq, and reasonable prices. I'm not a huge meat eater but I got drawn by the delicious smokey aroma coming from Cornerstone. I decided to get their kids meal, which consisted of a brisket slider and mac and cheese. It ended up being the perfect portion for me. The slider had a juicy hamburger patty with tender pieces of brisket and grilled onions. There was also a stack of pickles on the side. Now the Mac n Cheese deserves its own review. This is the best one I've ever tasted. Cheesy, buttery, and smokey. So much umami. I highly recommend. read more

Cornerstone BBQ - Kids meal - Barbeque Near Me - Beaumont, California

First time to this one & a frequent to Redlands location. Server was friendly. Location was nice but definitely not as clean! 5/10 Mac&Cheese 1/10. No flavor, not hot and just not good. Tri tip burrito had an extra charge for some reason but it was good. 8/10. Bbq sauces were very watery and all the caps were sticky and dirty. Also, we sat on the patio and there was a ton of flies. I'm wondering if maybe a zapper or something could be added to contain that. We had to keep chasing them away and it was very unpleasant. Eggs Benedict plate was not good. Not very hot and just very bland. 3/10. read more

Trying the new sit down format The good : Parking Table service Fantastic wait help The Bad : Strangely the food was just ok The time to get our food was long They ran out of ribs at 1:00 pm To be honest the food didn't taste that great , something was missing. Even the baked beans were off. The ugly : Bill was 85.00 Check your bill we were over charged. Fortunately it was quickly resolved. From now on it's just take out The Empire is growing too fast. read more

It's a good little small chain barbecue place. We went with a large family platter I would suggest go with the pulled pork and chicken those two were my favorite. As for the sides the corn was good as was the beans. Curious about trying the mac and cheese as that's kind of a telltale sign of a good barbecue restaurant in addition to the flavors on the proteins as well. The chicken had a good barbecue to it and a sweetness and don't forget to use the sauces on the table. Place is a little small so keep that in mind if you plan to go during busy times or on weekends although there is outside seating and plenty of parking lot parking. Staff was nice enough and accommodating and you could even look into the kitchen from the dining area. All in all we spent about $120 might steer away from the coleslaw Could use some more flavor and sauce. read more

My friend recommended this spot to me while I was staying in the area. She knows I'm a breakfast burrito fanatic. I decided to check it out and I ordered the brisket burrito and it was DELICIOUS! It was large in size, packed with flavor and was well worth the money. Service was very good. Pretty surprised how empty it was on a Saturday morning. I'd definitely come back in the future. read more

Came here for a nice dinner with my parents and it was DELICIOUS!!!! All the meats were incredibly tender and smoky. My favorite was the brisket! The sides were also perfect. I loved the Mac and cheese, and the baked beans were so good. My parents had no complaints about their food. They said that they loved this place and would love to go again. Only thing I have to say is that I wish they paid attention to the orders a little more because they forgot some of the sides and we had to remind them. But other than that, this place is a 100/10. read more

People were real nice here. Excellent service. Great atmosphere: Western movie was playing on a big screen TV. I had the Chilaquiles with a side of pork belly. It was meh. My friend had overcooked eggs Benedict with brisket. I could tell how dry that brisket was from across the table. We came to the conclusion that the best cooks are probably not working on a Wednesday morning. We ate our fill. It was better than fast food, but not a place I would want to return to frequently, if this is as good as it gets. read more

Had to leave a review for Cornerstone BBQ because this place has become one of our go-to spots! Yes, it's a little on the pricey side, but the portions are decent and the food keeps us coming back. My hubby is obsessed with their breakfast burrito, and I can definitely see why! My personal favorite is the loaded meat fries with brisket burnt ends... OMG sooo good! The brisket is flavorful, tender, and packed with smoky goodness. I also LOVE their peach cobbler. I will say the one I got during Mother's Day weekend just wasn't it -- probably an off weekend because every other time it's been delicious. Definitely not enough to stop me from coming back though! Overall, great BBQ spot with tasty comfort food and favorites we keep craving. Worth trying if you're in the area! read more

Great food, fair portions, tasty sauces to try. I had the two meat one side plate with tri tip, pork belly and fries. Fries were crispy and were the coated fries so very yummy. Pork belly was better than the tri tip but the tri tip was still good. Very busy in there. We were lucky to be a small party so go seated within a few minutes. read more

There were some pros and some cons for this establishment. First off the parking is limited and a tight squeeze, this was our first visit and we couldn't even be welcomed by one employee even though many walked past us, made eye contact and walked away. So we stood waiting by the door for probably a good 5 minutes before I flagged someone down. I do not like doing this as it makes it seem you don't want my business. There was one employee in particular that came to the front check in, looked at us, grabbed napkins and turned around and walked off without a word. When she came back the second time, I inquired where we could do a takeout order and she vaguely points to the back wall and was like "over there" ... maybe put some signs up as we aren't familiar with your restaurant/set up. Saving grace was Jackie who was super sweet and helpful when she took our order, as well as the girl that brought us out our food. My husband enjoyed his loaded fries with burnt ends, I loved the brisket, it was so juicy and tender. The pork belly was just ok, a lot of fat and a little flavor. The Mac and cheese had some kind of seasoning in it that gave it a little kick which I enjoyed, but it was a little clumpy and not so smooth. The coleslaw was flavorless and I don't recommend the banana pudding which came in a little snack sized plastic cup with like a scoop of pudding for $7+ was not worth it. All in all, we would be back and know what to avoid next visit. read more

INCREDIBLE! We were driving through from LA back to Arizona and decided to stop by for dinner and it was perfect! You can tell you're gonna get a great meal right when you walk in because it smelled amazing! Lots of meat options, and I opted for the taco trio which has chicken pork and brisket and it was SOOO yummy! They gave us a few bbq sauces to add as well and all of them tasted fantastic. Also has the Brussels as an appetizer and it was so delicious. Highly recommend this place! There's plenty of seating and the servers are friendly, attentive, and accommodating. 10/10 read more

On the way to AZ we found this BBQ spot. We love finding little local places instead of rest stop fast food all the time. Got a pulled pork sandwich and a smash burger. I was surprised by how delicious the smash burger was. The coleslaw on the sandwich was also amazing. The staff there let us try the different types of meat, all of them very tasty. Their sauces are on point. I highly recommend the mustard based one. They do mainly take out, but we were able to sit on one of their tables right in front of the restaurant. read more

Pork ribs were delicious, moist and well seasoned. Got there at 4pm, brisket wasn't drippin like the ribs were & I was hoping I'd get some melt in your mouth brisket. Sometime it's hit or miss depending on how long the briskets have been holding. Maybe next time in town I can get there before lunch service. Sausages had great spice, not too firm and super rich. Mac/ cheese was dry & needs some work. The yellow bbq sauce was fire! read more

Our party of 6 raved about the food. Good thing we contacted the establishment that we were arriving at noon, as there were customers waiting to be seated. On the phone we were told no reservation needed, that was confussing because when we arrived we were asked if we had reservation. The empoyee/manager near by said "we have your table ready". We had the Family feast which included ribs, chicken, brisket, pulled pork and tri-tip. First time I tasted tender chicken pieces. For the sides we choose creamy potato salad, baked beans, cole slaw and corn salad. While the cole slaw was dry, the corn salad and potato salad was very tasty. The meal also included 5 rolls. Within 10 minutes of ordering we were served drinks and our meal. GREAT! we were on a time limit to our destination. Glad I found this place on Yelp. read more

Our 1st time here and we will definitely be back. From the minute we walked in, we were immediately greeted and seated. The service was outstanding, and the food was absolutely finger licking good.

I work in customer service, that is not how you do things. We had to ask the hostess for refills because most the employees were on lunch together (what restaurant does that?)

This is a small location in the older area of Beaumont. Staff was relatively friendly here. There's no indoor seating but there's a couple small tables out front and a patio area with seating in the back. Prices were a little high, I spent almost 40.00 on a 2 meat plate with an extra side (5.99 for small side). We got the meat plate with tritip and brisket and for our side it came with we ordered Mac n cheese. The meat was good, incredibly tender but lacking in overall flavor til you dip it in bbq sauce. The sides weee incredibly disappointing- the Mac had ZERO flavor to it and was so greasy and the baked brisket beans I saw and tasted no brisket. I think this spot is overhyped really courtesy of IG. read more

We went here but arrived right before closing. We put our order in and we got it right when they closed. They did mess up a bit on our order, but we were extremely happy of how the food tasted. We can't imagine if we got our order correct the place is just a small little place off the freeway, but with big taste the service here was pretty good. They were right on it, but as I said before, it was getting to closing time. The back patio area was kind of cool tucked away behind the front of the shop and you have to go around back, but it is nice to sit there and enjoy your dinner. We will have to come back and try it when they are not closing because I think they are on top of it. read more
