Joey's BBQ, 1964 W. Foothill Dr., Upland and presumably its twin at 3689 Riverside, Chino, offer either mesquite charcoal or hickory wood. joeysbbq.com
There were five us and we'd come in from nearby Claremont for lunch. We all had an adult beverage (two margaritas and three beers) as well as substantial lunches for a total of $100 or $20 a pop plus tip. We stuck to main stream beef and pork except for my shrimp kabobs - grilled bbq shrimp and tomato slices. We could have had a country sausage link dinner or thick=sliced ham or filet mignon, tri-tip or rib eye steak.
I smiled at the spin on a taco salad that they call a "BBQ Salad" - your choice of bbq meat tossed in bbq ranch dressing with baby iceberg lettuce, chips, tomato, green onions and shredded cheese on the side $11.95
More carnivorous types would prefer the Pork-A-Rama sandwich described as "One of our homemade sausage links on a 10-in. French roll piled high with our pulled pork and served with our homemade bbq sauce.
Sides are: potato salad, bbq beans, cole slaw, corn cobbette, French fries, yam fries or homemade potato ships - only two sides per person now!
Desserts are two bread puddings - one served with whipped cream and honey (and I've mentally filed away using honey with a bread pudding as a good idea) or apple caramel bread pudding for $4.95. Peach cobbler with whipped cream or a chocolate brownie with chocolate chip vanilla ice cream for $5.95.
It's a big restaurant with a large covered patio for dining and an open front patio to wait if the place is full. John Wayne movie posters are part of the décor; rustic is the rest. To signal a server run up the little flag on the mast in the middle of the table. Of course the toilets were labeled "Cowboys" or "Cowgirls"! How can you even ask?!
