Jay's Southern BBQ Catering

I wanted shrimp and grits but they stopped making it at 2pm. I got the large brisket and shrimp po boy. Both were good. I thought the there would be more brisket and I bought 2 12oz cans of soda that were $2 each which is a bit high. Also they ran out of some items. The brisket was very good. My daughter said it was the best she ever had. Super tender. All the good was good and I got to meet the owner. Someone ordered macaroni and cheese about the owner said that he had been throwing it away because enough people had not been coming to get it. We need to support this guy because his food is good. I'd recommend going out there to Alpine and I am certainly going to go out again. I was pretty surprised to find a soul food spot in Alpine. He will definitely have my support.

Tried some of my friends Mac & Cheese and Yams and they were amazing! Also my ribs were delicious. Food came out hot and in a timely manner. The staff Vi was very accomodating and friendly! Great job to Josefina and Ashley the cooks on the delicious food! Would definitely come back!

Just look at those PORK RIBS mmmm they were delicious, tender, and a very great size. If you are ever in Alpine this BBQ is great to have. The spicy BBQ sauce is delicious and it has a good small kick of spice to it. The Cole Slaw was ok too watery but those green beans are the best I have had.

In my opinion the food, service and atmosphere was not worth our 35 minute drive nor our $80. The brisket was undercooked. The greens and macaroni and cheese had zero flavor. What took me out was the .50 I was charge for hot sauce😳 and the known couple beside us was not charged when asked. Charging for hot sauce is a no go to begin with but to pick and choose who you charge is outrageous. Never again for us! Don’t waste your time or money.

This place is a hidden gem, when I tell you that you will not be disappointed. One of the best BBQ places in San Diego county. I say county because it's in Alpine. Yes I said Alpine, and well worth the drive. Jay the owner was helping us with our order let's hope he finds someone who can help when he needs it and they continue his wonderful service. I will definitely be coming back.
