Two old navy buddies started Bubba's BBQ Smokehouse on April 21, 2009! The owners, Jeff and Bruce met while serving on the USS Coronado and have been friends for over 7 years. After leaving the military in 2005 Jeff began managing restaurants.
They kept in touch and talked about what the 'perfect' restaurant would be. "We knew it had to have really good food. The kind you want to come back for. We wanted it to have a neighborhood feel and to become a neighborhood tradition for locals, yet still be situated where tourists would find us." says Bruce. Jeff chimed in with "and we knew we wanted fair prices for good portions and a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere."
By the time Bruce retired after 24 years in September 2009, they had found the perfect spot, the perfect menu and created the perfect BBQ and Smoke House! "We buy most of our food, fresh, from local vendors. We are supporting the local economy we live and work in. That feels great!"
Their corporate name says it all "Just Between Friends, Inc". "If you want a good meal, and good company, bring your appetite and stop by our little BBQ place and have a seat."
