If you're craving the best Texas BBQ in San Diego, Abbey’s Real Texas BBQ brings authentic Texas flavor to Southern California.
This blog explores what makes Abbey’s special, why our smoked meats stand out, and how our catering services have become a top choice for weddings, corporate events, parties, and family gatherings.
Abbey’s Real Texas BBQ is built on a simple principle: barbecue should be slow-smoked, full of flavor, and made with care. Every cut of meat is smoked low and slow over real mesquite wood using traditional Texas pitmaster techniques. This is what gives our brisket, ribs, and pork shoulder their deep smoky flavor and signature tenderness.
Many customers say Abbey’s reminds them of the BBQ they enjoyed growing up in Texas — a compliment we value deeply.
Our smoked brisket is slow-cooked for hours until it becomes tender, juicy, and rich with mesquite flavor. Served by the pound, on a sandwich, or on a plate, it’s one of the most iconic items on our menu.
Pork shoulder — often served as pulled pork — is smoked until perfectly tender. With bold flavor and great texture, it’s also one of the most popular choices for BBQ catering.
Our ribs are seasoned with a perfectly balanced dry rub and smoked until they reach the ideal tenderness: smoky, flavorful, and satisfying with every bite.
