Just a little over 2000 miles west of Memphis is the delightful little home of Buford's Bbq. Nestled among the historic downtown buildings along 2nd street in Antioch, California is one of the best barbecue joints I've had the pleasure of visiting. Despite arriving well after they had officially closed for the day, the wonderful owners allowed my fiancé and myself to dine in rather than take their delicious food to go. My fiance ordered their brisket sandwich with a side of Macaroni and cheese, while I opted for the three way consisting of bbq pork ribs, bbq chicken and the bbq hot link. Along with a side of potato salad (made in house btw) and their Macaroni and cheese. Now I have to be honest with you, I don't normally order Mac and cheese but I'm absolutely happy I did today. Their sides were.... scrumptious to say the least. Everything was perfectly flavored. Not one component overshadowed another with each item. Their ribs had the perfect amount of smoke and just the right amount of sauce to not take away or hide the flavor of the meat. The chicken was tender and juicy. The links were full of robust flavor with out being overly spicy, which hasn't always been something I find with most barbecue restaurants. I thoroughly plan on many return visits to experience all their culinary offerings and to provide more reviews on those experiences as well. The atmosphere was clean and welcoming, along with an attentive staff making sure everything was to our satisfaction. Next time you're craving some delicious barbecue, you need to come down to Buford's. Support your local family restaurants.
