Another solid Mac n cheese experience!!! Great side for a snack. Friendly quick service and the staff seemed to be keeping the kitchen clean. I tried the baked beans and it was yummy. Tender chunks of brisket and really a great flavor. Happy with my sides :) read more

Hoodidya BBQ - Side of beans- tender brisket in it! - Barbeque Near Me - Redlands, California

I finally got a chance to stop by and try this place. The owner seemed kool and gave me advice on what to try kind of. It's connected to a grocery store but it's right in front so it's easy to find. I ordered a 3 meat plate with the brisket, sausage and chicken quarter leg with a side of Mac and cheese and bbq beans. The portion size was really good. All in all the meat was cooked well but lacked flavor to me-except for the sausage, that was pretty tasty. The bbq sauce was really on point tho and gave good flavor to the meat. The Mac and cheese was decent, not nasty but not memorable and the bbq beans were decent. I really wanted to like this place more but it didn't hit my palate how I expect my bbq to. read more

Was fortunate enough to grab the last plate as they were practically sold out an hour before closing. I ordered a combo plate which came with one meat and two sides. The employee was super friendly and made sure that we were okay with the limited options. *Pulled Pork: despite looking dry, this was incredibly tender and moist. My favorite bites had fattier pieces incorporated. There was simple smokiness and sweetness to the rub. *Roll: a bit dense but warm. *Mac and Cheese: bit too watery and bland. There needed to be more seasoning to the sauce and the noodles were mushy. *Coleslaw: similarly watery dressing. The cabbage didn't seem fresh and everything had a limp texture. I would stick to the smoked meats here as the quality and simplicity was comparable to other BBQ spots. However, the sides were far below average so I would order the entrees a la carte. read more

Went back up to big bear, but came here to stick up on groceries and BBQ! This time I got the rib and brisket combo. Choice of beef or pork rib. I got the beef! The brisket we already know is melt in your mouth, but that rib!!! The beef rib was nice n fatty. I love the fat!! The BBQ baked potato is next on my list! read more

I decided to give Hoodidya, the BBQ spot outside of Ranch Market, a try for a family pool night, and what I found was mixed feelings. The good: the chicken was my favorite. Unlike so many other places, it was perfectly juicy and not at all dry. Paired with their incredible vinegar-based BBQ sauce--a true Southern-style departure from the usual Western ketchup-based sauces--it was the winner. The barbecue beans were also solid; a classic side. Nothing different to note on customer service. Items that fell short: The brisket, which I'd heard was a highlight, was unfortunately a major letdown. It was soggy, like earm, and excessively fatty, tasting as if it had been sitting too long. Similarly, the rib tips lacked that great, smoky tender BBQ taste I was hoping for. Ultimately, my experience with Hoodidya was too mixed for me to recommend it. While the chicken and sauce were fantastic, the overall quality of the brisket and rib tips were questionable. read more

While listed as "Redlands Texas BBQ" on their Yelp page their sign says "Hoodidya", see my pic. I asked the cashier how to pronounce their name and she said it was like the phrase ""Who did ya" get that BBQ from?": get it? This is a takeaway restaurant only: no indoor or outdoor seating. The ordering went smoothly and staff was friendly, but it took surprisingly long to get my food. I have pics of their menu boards. We ordered their brisket and pulled pork, see my pics. As you can see in my pulled pork pic, the pork was a bit stringy and had long strands. I can't recall ever having the rub sprinkled on the pulled pork before service. The fresh rub made the pulled pork chew a bit grainy. The rub was fine and had a nice touch of sweet and heat. When you check out my brisket pic, you'll see the nice fat cap, rub and smoke ring. This was definitely the better of the two meats we had. There was good amount of smoke aroma and flavor (which was a good thing). The fat cap was appropriate for adding flavor and richness. We received 2 small containers of their BBQ sauce. It had a pronounced flavor of ketchup with a tang of vinegar. read more

If you're looking for tender, flavorful, real smoked barbecue, look elsewhere, cause you won't find it here. But if you're looking for a plate of barbecued chew toys, look no further, this is your spot. I ordered the rib tip plate and the ribs tasted like nothing, like no seasoning at all and were tough. It also didn't taste like a smoked flavor, tasted like it was cooked in the oven. The Mac n cheese was mushy and the cole slaw, was the best tasting thing on the plate. The plates are supposed to come with 5oz of barbecue sauce, but my plate didn't have any sauce, so I had to ask for some. I was handed a container of ice cold sauce Like why would I want ice cold sauce, with my warm barbeque?!?! Not to mention, he ran inside the store to grab a squeeze bottle of sauce. No telling how many other people didn't have sauce on their plates either. The banana pudding was terrible! Thin in consistency and lacked flavor as well. There were Biscoff cookies crushed and sprinkled on top, and bananas mixed in, but that still didn't help the flavor. Please stop embarrassing Texas by saying this is "Texas Style" barbecue, cause no it's not! Customer service was good though! read more

My partner and I found this place on a random search to find a barbecue spot that wasn't a chain. We were so supremely to find this place there was no mention of it other than a random Google search. This barbecue spot is in a cozy spot as part of the Redlands Ranch Market, and the staff have been incredibly friendly. Although the sides are average, their meat is absolutely fantastic. Their brisket is so tender and juicy, and their pulled pork isn't dry at all. read more

2 Meat Combo was absolutely delicious. The portions are huge, and I had to split it in half and still felt full (maybe 1/3s ). Honestly I prefer Ranch to Cornerstone. The story behind the BBQ and what they are producing is great. read more

Wow today I stopped after work and was checking this place out when I was greeted with exceptional customer service and a chance to try out their smoked turkey breast .

If you never been your missing out and while you're there check out the market lots of great things. read more

Second time at Hoodidya BBQ and they definitely don't disappoint. The brisket sandwich and mac n cheese are delicious every single time. Beyond the food, the service is top-tier and quick. The staff knows their stuff; they answered all my questions on the spot. They do have seating, but it's definitely more of a 'grab it and head home' vibe. Easily the best BBQ in the area read more

Absolutely disappointed, I bought the beef rib plate and got 3 large ribs of FAT. The Coleslaw tasted sour, the beans were ok. I've eaten here before and pork ribs were great, this time around the beef ribs were a huge disappointment. The staff are generally not customer service oriented, they lack professionalism and attention to customer service. They tend to give the impression that you're bothering them for placing an order??? Ambience is ok, I've never seen the smoker burning wood, maybe they run it during non open hours. Overall, I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Long wait to order one meal. Then I wasn't offered bbq sauce and left without it. Ugh! Asked if I could call in an order or order online but that is not an option also. The bbq is good, getting it ordered is not. read more

We got two combos of the brisket sandwich and we got Mac and cheese for the side the Mac and cheese was super salty we couldn't even swallow it. The brisket had a lot of fat and chewy it was super salty all we could taste was salt and u can one small sauce which wasn't really good. Would not recommend this place. read more

Three times I have been here, and every time was a disappointment. Every time they have been OUT of Potatoes, Even though they advertise their specialty potatoes, if you have a special going on or a new product, you should have adequate amount of said product. First 2 times we chalked it up to them just opening as a New Restaurant, so we thought they needed time to get it together. Sadly this last time we learned that No, they did NOT get it together. We even tried coming earlier thinking that would do the trick- Nope. I Frequent the Ranch Market and was so excited for this BBQ place to open but if you can't have simple things like Potatoes, Mac N Cheese, & Coleslaw at 5:30 on a weeknight for families that are looking to pick up a meal, then there's something Wrong with the execution. I cannot take another chance on this place, I'd rather drive 2 cities over to Spirit of Texas. Also the Turkey was Dry and they don't offer any bbq sauce, or put it in the bag, You have to ASK for it. read more

The ribs and the brisket are my favorite. Just had the brisket and it was the best I've had in the city, good staff, always friendly.

I went there for the first time today and had the brisket. It was amazing! Also, I have to say their homemade sides are really good. I had the mac and cheese and I have to say the barbecue beans are the best I've ever had. Would definitely come back read more

If I could give a lower review I would. I paid 53 dollars for two rib plates. My daughter and I both got the beef ribs. They were mostly bone. The bones were huge for the amount of meat. It was horrible. The macaroni and cheese was just "so so" without much flavor and mushy. The one star is for the coleslaw. It was actually pretty good. Horrible. Will never eat there again. Funny, a man in a car drove by while we were ordering and yelled out the window "Don't eat their food" read more
