Pioneer Bbq
I remember back in 2018 Chef Hanis Calvin founded The Pioneer. I saw him hard at work in the kitchen and the bbq was very good. Sadly he left for other ventures. I’m visiting for the last time as The Pioneer closed on July 8, 2025.

Brown’s Bbq
I was excited to see oxtails on the menu at Brown’s Bbq. Sadly they didn’t have any when I visited. I asked the owner and found out he only makes oxtail when enough people have requested it and there is an oxtail event.

The Hitching Post II
I was staying in Solvang and excited to see a Hitching Post restaurant nearby. Delicious scent of oak smoke was strong in the parking lot. There were many meat and fish choices on the menu but I can’t resist quail and ribs. I watched as the flames cooked my meal.

Valley Farm Market
Smoker sits in the parking lot. They smoke their meats with applewood pellets.

Buckboard’s Barbeque and Brew
There are a bunch of 2 story apartments around here. I remember days of old living in various apartments like these and playing outside watching the cars go by.
