Blue Rock Barbecue

Why We Love It: True Southern ’Cue—without borders—in the South Bay. True to its Tennessee inspiration, Blue Rock features pork shoulder, ribs and chicken with a custom spice rub, cooked low-and-slow over hickory wood chunks. But, over time, they also added local specialties like tri-tip, Texas-style brisket and burgers custom-ground to order. -Stewart Putney
