Thumbs Up! Bacon and BBQ — Local services in Carlsbad

Hands down, best pulled pork, best pastrami in SD County! And the best part is they deliver locally w/social distancing, with super easy online ordering on their website and their pricing is amazing!

Our faves are the pulled pork and pastrami, but everything we have ordered is phenomenal. Hubs is in love with their yellow mustard sauce - it's the perfect compliment to the meat. All of the meat is pre-cooked/vacuum sealed (except the bacon, which I finally ordered and haven't tried yet!), crazy perfectly smoked and moist, tender. Perfectly sliced and ready for your oven (I feel like I say this a lot in my reviews - 400 for 15 with a tin foil hat is chefs kiss perfection)

I haven't had the chance to try their onsite offerings, however the food is so amazing - I'm still not leaving the house - but it's on my list for post-pandemic.

They were on my list to try sometime at a brewery before the pandemic- and they've pivoted well to doing delivery, and now back to breweries with social distancing and all kinds of special precautions. Owners Hailey and Miles are so fun and friendly, and super communicative. Their love shines so brightly in their food! And Hailey is the cutest sweetest "delivery lady" in all the land. She's added special touches to our orders, including really sweets for our dogs who tried to chase her off during her first delivery.

Small businesses are so very important to our local economy and I'm glad they've survived the current state of affairs. Whether you're masking, social distancing and being safe in public - or looking for an amazing dinner while safely at home, Thumbs Up should be on your...

Holy pork! We are just a family of out-of-towners that stumbled into a brewery with other dinner plans and ended up staying and eating Thumbs Up Bacon and BBQ, and we do not regret it. Haillee and Miles blew us away with their flavor and broad menu. Like, whoa. BBQ is usually pretty basic in options, but not only are they super creative, but the flavor! I'm a sauce girl, but I didn't even need sauce, the meat on its own is so good! My children are hot dog and chicken nuggets kids, and they both went to town on their ribs and Smackaroni and cheese. That says a lot to me. On top of the food, these two are the NICEST people. Between their BBQ/flavor skill and their service, they are winning in my book. Don't sleep on these guys. Cancel your plans, find them (likely at Burgeon Beer Co), and get you something...

This BBQ truck is L-E-G-I-T. I have been waiting for a good Southern-style BBQ place for a long time and finally I found one.... at a brewery no less (Burgeon). The smoked wings are amazing and they come with 3 very tasty sauces: BBQ, spicy BBQ and mustard BBQ. The brisket is sweet and smokey with a generous amount of bark giving it a nice crunch. The sides are great too, I really like the "Gloslaw"-- lots of black pepper. I absolutely cannot wait to try the rest of their menu. By the way, the owners, Miles and Haley are seriously the nicest, friendliest people you will meet. Thanks for bringing that Georgia charm to SD, guys! Love,...
