Smokin J's BBQ
Slow-Smoked BBQ in San Diego
At Smokin J’s BBQ, we believe great barbecue shouldn't be rushed. Our meats are smoked low and slow with California white oak until they’re tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. From melt-in-your-mouth brisket to fall-off-the-bone ribs, every bite is made with passion. Join us at one of our two restaurants, or order online.
