Pellet grill and smoker.

Hey Unconventional -

Your "in box" is full so couldn't send you a 'conversation'.

Saw you post to the pellet grill thread and got a kick out of your 'pellets'. Then saw the pic of your grill and thought, "This guy must be in Santa Maria."
Looked back at the post and saw you are in Santa Maria!
My daughter and her boyfriend and driving through Santa Maria on Sunday of Labor Day weekend on their way to Monterey. She told me he's never had Santa Maria BBQ and asked me if they still do the bbq's out on the main street through town. I haven't been through Santa Maria for a bunch of years so I don't know.
Do they still bbq out on the main street? If they do, where's the best place for them to stop and buy some great brisket? What are typical hours?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Oh yeah, that grill looks great! Not much better than Santa Maria style brisket.

I would think Broadway, the main drag, should have numerous fund raisers for various causes ready about lunchtime. Mostly Tri Tip or Ribs for those, cheap meat at meat market = better funds in fund raiser :lol: chickens too. Sit down places, Cool Hand Luke's Stowell and Hwy 101, McClintock's Saloon in Arroyo Grande, I don't think the Big Mclintock's in Pismo opens until 4, the view from there is amazing though. Shaw's and The Swiss both on Broadway open for dinner on Sundays. Unfortunately The Far Western in Orcutt hasn't been open on Sundays since the covid arrived. AJ Spurs and Hitchin' Post on 246 in Buellton muy bueno also, not sure of their hours. AJ's in Arroyo Grande also right off the 101.
