Everett and Jones is a Barbecue restaurant with locations in Berkeley, Hayward, Sacramento, and Oakland’s Jack London Square.

Decor, Vibe – Everett and Jones is a converted old fast food place with bumper stickers all over the wall, picnic tables outside with people hawking stuff. Mostly local regulars were getting lunch. The Oakland place is much nicer.

Our last visit in 2013 was during the Maker’s Faire in San Mateo. The best time to order is in the middle of the day, when there is a line. Towards the end of the day, they wind down the BBQ’ing so food quality falls off. Decor, Vibe – Big Bubbas Bad BBQ has a huge smoker with tons of meat cooking. Corn was grilling on a separate grill. Long lines most of the time. Lots of families chowing down on fair grub. They use Lazzari Natural Mesquite Lump Charcoal. Menu Pictures Website Big Bubbas Bad BBQ menu Big Bubba’s Picks: Pork Spare Ribs ($9, $13 for a dinner plate) were great. Lots of tender meat and very good BBQ sauce. Tangy, sweet, and zesty sauce. Messy but delicious. Forget about the dinner with 4 ribs, average cole slaw and just forgettable beans. Our recommendation is to stick […]
