    My family has moved from Southern California and moved to Redding for the past 12 years and I am…read morenot sure why I FINALLY am trying Smokin' Joe's BBQ. 10/10 service, food, wait time, EVERYTHING! The owner, Joe, is the sweetest & funniest man you will ever meet! A family owned BBQ place that makes the most delicious smoked meat you will ever taste in your life. SO TENDER, LITERALLY FALL OFF THE BONE. My favorite was the brisket; tender, juicy, smoked for over 16 hours in the smoker outside the restaurant. The portions are huge at a reasonable price. Not photographed was the garlic fries my grandpa bought and I swear I could get an entire basket of those bad boys! If you are in the Redding area, YOU MUST COME TO SMOKIN' JOES FOR THE BBQ IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA!

    Well, it's been about a week since I came across Joe's barbecue there in Redding on our way home…read morefrom my uncle's funeral in Visalia California. I have to tell you , truthfully, I called 10 minutes before they were about to close . I begged the lady on the phone , I need to order something. I gotta try your barbecue I'm only 7 minutes away. So they put together a phone order, I showed up and who was sitting at the table but Joe. You talk about a friendly guy, we sat and chatted. I ended up opening up my meal, calling my sister to come in from the car and sit down. He went in the back and made me some concoction that was out of this world. Here's the thing the Carolina barbecue sauce made with the mustard is so freaking phenomenal. I bought a container of it and brought it home and put it in a glass jar and have been allowing my children to taste it on the back of a spoon and tonight we're actually going to barbecue wings and toss them in it. Hands down "This is the best Carolina honey barbecue sauce" I've ever tasted and I've tasted a lot. Whatever his secret is, I would love to have it cause I want to can it and I'm not sure why he doesn't bottle this and sell it himself. It is literally gold in a bottle. Now, as far as their sweet potatoes, I was so impressed because usually when you go to a barbecue place, they give you orange yams and call them sweet potatoes. Not this guy he had straight yellow sweet potatoes with some type of honey brown sugar goodness dripping over the top. The pork ribs were fantastic and so were the smothered fries with the barbecued pork my Lord just rub it on my hips. The hospitality was phenomenal. He gave me a little bit of his rub that he puts on his ribs. Just so I could smell it and have a sample because I am a chef. I told him he needs to come up to where we're from in Portland, Oregon, and bring his barbecue. Don't miss this spot it's BBq to live for!!!

    This place is a legit mom & pop, homegrown, hole in the wall kind of business. Although, you…read morewouldn't expect too much different being on Bowman Rd in Cottonwood. We stopped in here while visiting family to see what kind of options they had. We're always on the hunt for good quality meats. While they're primarily known for processing game, I'm glad we stopped in. What stood out to us: 1. Prices are extremely reasonable. $7/lb for Tri-tip and that isn't even a sale price. We pay atleast $12.99/lb usually. They also had organic chicken (although it wasn't labeled organic, they said it is) for $1.50-5/lb depending on the cut. 2. When asking what's popular, the owners mentioned the sausages are a hit with the locals. They make them all in house. I was particularly excited to hear that the sun dried tomatoes in the tomato basil sausage and the jalapeños in the jalapeño cheese sausage were grown in their garden out back. It doesn't get much more fresh and local than that! While we didn't try the chorizo this time, they also noted that it's a popular option and they have people purchase it in bulk to use at restaurants. One thing I would note is that it seems like their retail meats are sourced from a number of places . They have some stuff that they just bought commercially, some stuff that is from other fairly local farms, and some things that are processed right there in house. Sourcing matters to you? Be sure to have a conversation about it with them, Roger there they can tell you everything. One of the owners and her son spent a lot of time with us. Also note that if you spend about $200 or more they'll give you a flat discount off the top! We spent just over $200, and came out with 3 heaping grocery bags of meat to fill the freezer! You can't get that much bang for your buck at the grocery store.

    I'm really excited to cook everything we bought. I picked up some tri-tip, and the rest of my…read morein-laws got a bunch of other meats too. We did arrive a little late, but she was so kind and still took the time to help us. The service was great, and we really appreciated how welcoming and patient she was. We'll definitely be back when i visit cottonwood!

Even if you visit during a busier time, the restaurant is quite large, with plenty of seating spread across several different areas. We were seated immediately and greeted by our server, who was friendly, attentive, and quick to take our drink orders while we looked over the menu. They also serve fresh, warm bread, which was a nice touch to enjoy while browsing the menu and waiting for our entrees. I ordered the 10-ounce filet mignon cooked medium rare. It was a nice, thick, round cut and was cooked perfectly to medium rare. The steak was tender, flavorful, and had a surprisingly great taste. Overall, we had a very good experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was comfortable. We'd definitely consider coming back.

First of all, just on the walk in, there's pigeon crap everywhere, all over the walkway, and it looks like it was even on the door handles at some point. Then you walk in, and it smells like a public restroom. Just a nasty ambiance off rip. Service was fine, but the food was just sad, and honestly took way too much time to come out. I got the steak and shrimp scampi with garlic fries, and the scampi came out cold, the steak came out cold, and my garlic fries were dry and, get this, cold. Given how long it took for everything to come out, I wasn't going to send back my entire plate to get refired, but I did send my scampi back. It came out hot, but it honestly tasted awful. That scampi sauce tasted like a bland, bitter alfredo sauce. Needless to say, I will not be returning.

We visited Redding again and decided to stop by their shop. The service was great and friendly. They have the product refrigerated for those of us that want to consume right away or refrigerated them up to three months. They also have the vacuum bags version that can be kept in the freezer for up to a year. I will definitely go back and buy more while in town. The beef taste natural and just the right amount of salt. They also ship through their website. I found this convenient as we don't live in the area. Highly recommended.

    It's Jerky, located right here in beautiful Redding, California, is owned and operated by a great…read moreman named Dustin. This company is the real deal. Their jerky is fresh, made and delivered fast, and never sits around in storage waiting to be shipped. Dustin currently distributes to over 40,000 stores, including about 67 Costco locations, and continues to expand while still keeping his roots in the community. What's even more impressive is his generosity, donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to local causes, schools, Little Leagues, and kids fighting cancer. As for the product itself? Absolutely amazing. My personal favorites are the teriyaki beef sticks and the honey pepper beef jerky, but honestly, every flavor is great, from pepper to habanero. It really comes down to personal taste. You can grab It's Jerky right from the manufacturing plant in Redding, or find it at Costco, Safeway, and many other retailers. And if you ever get the chance, definitely visit the plant. Dustin was kind enough to get approval from the federal USDA inspector (who's on-site daily) for me and two friends to tour the facility where this delicious jerky is made. It was an awesome experience and shows just how transparent and proud they are of their quality. Do yourself a favor and try It's Jerky. You'll taste the difference, and you'll be supporting a company that gives back in a big way.
