Our Story

Golden Bear BBQ was born from a dream nurtured in the heart of Houston, Texas, where our founder honed her skills and developed a deep love for authentic BBQ. Inspired by her Asian heritage and the rich BBQ culture of Texas, she decided to bring her culinary vision to life in sunny San Diego. With a commitment to quality, creativity, and community, Golden Bear BBQ quickly became a beloved fixture at local farmers' markets.

Our Process

At Golden Bear BBQ, we believe that great BBQ starts with quality ingredients and time-honored techniques. That's why we smoke our brisket for a full 12 hours over a blend of hardwoods, infusing it with layers of smoky flavor and tenderizing it to perfection. Every dish is made with care and attention to detail, ensuring that each bite is a true delight for the senses.
