About Traballo’s Backyard BBQ

Traballo's Backyard BBQ is a hidden gem that offers delicious and reasonably priced barbecue dishes. The menu features a variety of options, including brisket, ribs, and tri-tip, all cooked to perfection. The brisket has a great bark, while the ribs are tender and the tri-tip is juicy. Customers praise the friendly staff and the overall quality of the food, which is considered one of the top BBQ spots in the area. The owner is known for his kind and accommodating service and provides toys for children during visits. The restaurant has a family-owned and operated feel, with a small parking lot and outdoor seating. Customers also appreciate the efficient and seamless ordering process at the brick-and-mortar store, where you place your order, pay, and leave quickly. The outdoor dining area is a good option, and the parking lot is shared with other businesses, making parking easy. Many visitors come for breakfast, which is served starting at 6 am, though hours may vary. The menu includes favorites like pulled pork sliders, which are enjoyed with fries, and the 2 way meat platter featuring brisket and tri-tip, which some find a bit overcooked. Sides like potato salad are popular, and the beef hot link is noted for being flavorful and spicy. Customers also try drinks such as the Cali drip—though some find it disappointing—and the Sunset drink, which contains bits of mango and cranberry juice. There are also food truck options that serve delicious items like Mexipino lumpia, which is less messy than tacos and full of flavor, though prices can be steep. Overall, visitors have had good experiences and look forward to returning, especially to try breakfast or the BBQ sticks. The smoked barbecue is highly praised, with some calling it the best in the area, and the family atmosphere makes it a favorite place to visit and recommend.
