We were staying at Bass Lake to visit Yosemite and I noticed there was bbq in nearby Oakhurst.

Jay’s Southern Cafe
Alpine has a quiet small town vibe a bit like Julian but without the horde of tourists. Lots of one story buildings and land that hasn’t been paved over.

Colibri Grill Cafe
On our road trip to the Charles Schultz Museum we drove the furthest north I’ve ever gone. I wanted to find a local place and try the bbq. Yelp led me to Colibri Grill Cafe.

Central Coast Meat Market
I have always wanted to visit Pismo Beach but haven’t had the chance till now. My Yelp friend Paul M. suggested I visit Central Coast Meat Market knowing my love of bbq. I visited at the end of October and Pismo beach was nice with the temps in the mid 70’s. There was a good number of parking spots and a quiet laid back beach town vibe.

Yelp Elite Event: Taste Of Liberty Station
Liberty Station. Place was a Marine base most of my life. I never gave it much thought. I never gave it much thought after it was redeveloped and turned into shops and houses. I was excited to visit when I got the email there was going to be a Taste of Liberty Station yelp event. Liberty Public Market sounded like The Ferry Building in San Francisco which I love.

Robin’s Wood Fire BBQ
Shiny wood waiting Smoke rise up as a signal Delicious bbq inside. Had a good feeling when I saw a stack of applewood as I pulled into the parking lot.

Coop’s West Texas BBQ
Driving past lemon Smoke rise into deep blue sky Left for bbq, right chicken. Lemon Grove. I rarely visited till Coops opened. Now I make the trek whenever I crave Texas bbq. I try to resist but I can’t for long. Haunted by the smoky scent of meat and slowly burning wood. Then images of tender meat with a glistening bark and the beautiful smoke ring appear and there will be no sleep.
