The Barbecue Pit - El Cajon

One of the best family owned restaurants that I’ve eaten in a long time exactly what I needed for this evening. I asked for recommendations when I went to the counter. They surprised me with this amazing meal. I’m so glad I stopped in everybody should visit this place.

First it was fantastic my daughter likes barbecued beef sandwich and macaroni salad. I tried the pulled pork French fries With coleslaw. Delicious!! I do wanna say that the staff there they’re always friendly and they’re always in a willing to give you a suggestion if you ask. I really like going there and have for years and will continue for years.

The best ever ever besides Wranglers. But we love love the BBQ pit. The cashier is always so sweet (the original cashier woman) she's about 30 has kids. I wish I knew her name but she is family of the owner. Anyways we love her. We love the BBQ pit

Excellent!! The meat is like butter!! This place brings back such taste bud memories of my childhood. All of them were family favorites. There isn't anything on the menu that is bad, it's ALL delicious. When I was there the other day they didn't disappoint. I got exactly what I remembered. Oh I wish they still everywhere, not just this one location.

We got the full slab of pork ribs. The ribs were lean, crispy on the outside, and fall off the bone tender. The ribs are way better that those at Phil's BBQ, but not quite as good as at Coop's West Texas BBQ. As our side we chose the coleslaw. It was a bit dry and not as creamy as the gold standard of Milton's, but had a good flavor and crisp texture. This location's food and portions are better than at their North Park location.
