The best places to get BBQ in SF

It’s no secret that San Francisco isn’t now (or probably ever will be) known as a city that you visit for BBQ and it would be really tough to compete with Memphis, St. Louis and pretty much the entire state of Texas. However, just because the City by the Bay won’t make any national top 10 lists, doesn’t mean that you can’t find some delicious, smoky brisket and tri-tip that will make your mouth water. Whether you are craving craving some smoked meats like ribs, burnt ends and pulled pork or want to get some traditional southern sides like baked beans, ‘slaw and collard greens, you can find a good selection of amazing BBQ restaurants in San Francisco. Although this doesn’t cover all of the good BBQ restaurants, here are a few hand-picked local favorites to try.
