Generous portions and well prepared meat!I visit CDA twice a month and I’ve tried several BBQ food trucks based upon reviews. This one definitely lives up the five star ratings. The 1/2 pound rack of ribs and 1/2 pound tri-tip were massive and smoked perfectly. Baked beans were excellent but just a little sweet for my taste. This BBQ was significantly better than others in the area because the meat was flavorful but not over seasoned. Staff was friendly and patient. I’m glad I tried it… it’s worth a visit.

Wife and I stopped here after church, first time. She got a pulled pork sandwich that was awesome. Meat was great, theologies style bun is big and awesomely fresh/soft.I got the tri-tip, half pound. Super generous portion size made me feel like I got a good deal! They do military first responder discount too which I love, happy surprise this place! Would recommend and will be back!

My husband said the tri-tip sandwich was delicious and the beans were some of the best he has ever had.I had the pulled pork sandwich and it was amazing! Homemade rolls were a perfect match! So soft inside but strong enough to hold the mounds of meat!Staff was friendly and helpful with our order. Definitely will eat this amazing food again!

My friend and I shared the scrapyard. It’s a good amount of food for the money! Loved the pork, slaw, and Mac and cheese but did not like the beans. They didn’t seem cooked all the way and the sauce was runny. I’ll be back to try more though!

Google didn’t update their business hours, I called after hours not knowing and I was still taken care of. Dudes stand behind their business, take care of their customers and have some of the best food around. Support local ?

More of a lunch time spot but the food is soooo good. Everything here is delicious, you can't go wrong. Great food for a great price!

Actually good BBQ! Authentic, I lived in Florida, BBQ generally sucks in Spokane and CDA. This is GOOD BBQ. If you think Longhorn is good, we can't even talk really.

The BBQ tri tip is smoky and tender. Great bark on the outside with perfectly rendered fat. (I asked for it). The 1/2 lb in the box felt heavy! Balanced sauce that’s a little sweet and tangy which I asked for on the side. Mac n cheese was a good combo. They do good work. The best BBQ always comes from a food truck! Can’t wait to try again.

Honestly the best BBQ I’ve ever had west of the Rockies, didn’t want to leave a review but I may as well. My real question here is I’m just wondering if you will be open during December-January because I’ll be home from school and need to get some good food!

I read somewhere that tri-tip is the "brisket of the west." Well, Barbecue Boys represents tri-tip well with their food truck. They're a little tucked away from traffic flow, but worth finding. I ordered the tri-tip sandwich - being from S Texas, I don't think I'd ever had that cut before. I also ordered the "small" mac & cheese side. The plate came just a few minutes later and it was HEAVY ... I was optimistic. Later, opening the carton ... WOW! This is a great amount of food for a decent price! I'm so glad I did "small" on that mac & cheese. It was very cheesy and had good flavor. The sandwich was like a hoagie STUFFED with thin slices of beef swimming in barbecue sauce. This, I feel, was good and not-so-good. The meat was tender and moist. The sauce was sweet and spicy. But, there's so much of the sauce, it literally drowns the flavor of the beef. And, here's the real "tip" - ditch that hoagie bun and just enjoy the beef. The bun was tough and got soggy; like it was microwaved warm instead of grilled/toasted. The guys running the food truck are friendly and efficient. Prices are good and, again, portions are plentiful. I'll be looking forward to trying more of their menu.

Indulging in the mouthwatering delights of the Best Ave BBQ Boys was an experience beyond compare. The tender, smoky meats were a flavor explosion, perfectly complemented by their signature sauces. Each bite of the scrap yard dog was a journey through layers of rich, authentic taste. The friendly staff and inviting aroma added to the overall delight. A culinary adventure that leaves you craving for more!
