This is an annual stop when we visit Chico. If you can't decide between the Memphis style, "philthy phils" or Carolina style, get the rib sampler, but I'd recommend the two latter kinds. The Brisket sandwich is delectable. All the sides are good: creamy slaw, tasty beans and perfectly crisped fries. This is good BBQ folks. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

We visited our college son and brought him here so he could eat something other than typical college faire. There is a variety of meats (beef, chicken, pork, lamb) and vegetables to select or have some of everything. The only limitation is the size of the bowl, although you can go back for second and thirds if you desire. The last selection before you hand your bowl to the cook is the oils and flavorings. I thought I had added several ladles of the various oils, but it wasn't enough. The cook advised me it would be dry if I didn't add more. So I added several more ladles. While waiting for it to cook, he told the group behind me to add at least 10 ladles full. The meal includes spring rolls and won ton. Everyone left happy and full.
3. S and S Barbeque and Deli

I like this quirky organic and natural foods grocery store. They have a deli with a great salad bar and a barbecue take out. I had their salads, deli sandwiches and barbecue chicken. All were flavorful and reasonably priced. They have outdoor seating at little tables adjacent to their parking lot and at picnic tables near the Lindo Channel creek under the canopy of nice trees.
