Porkchop & Bubba's BBQ, Bakersfield, California

Best barbecue Melanie and I have eaten in a while and right here in sunny (or not so much lately 😎) Bakersfield, California. 

Melanie ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich and I ordered the Brisket Sandwich. Her side was potato salad, mine slaw. No alcohol served, but who cares when the barbecue is this good. And the Brisket, not to be missed, if Brisket is your thing. 

The service was great and personable and we were able to enjoy the great spring-like weather outside in front of the restaurant on one of two picnic tables.

The owner came out after we finished eating and we chatted with him for a while before we got back on our bikes and rode towards a local car show we'd seen happening in downtown Bakersfield.

He's a great guy, a culinary school grad, but credits his "Mammy" with his love for eating and preparing food. Not sure we caught his name and it's not mentioned on his website.  The restaurant is named after nicknames given two of his children. 

​Porchop and Bubba's BBQ. Highly recommended.o
