New Life BBQ — Restaurant in Jurupa Valley

I always stop by New Life BBQ whenever I see the truck. The beef brisket is beautiful with a nice bark. Sometimes, you can even get the juicy, crispy ends.

The mac and cheese is creamy and offers a good complement to the smoky meat. I like to mix in bits of brisket to the macaroni and take it to lunch the next day.

I am ashamed to admit, though, that sometimes the meat does not make it to the next day because I have eaten the entire box myself.

The smoked links are also amazing with a nice snap to them.

As for the corn bread is soft and sweet, not gritty and -- as the owner suggested -- makes a handy morning snack with your coffee.

The owners are super friendly and always generous with the servings. I recommend you stop if you see the truck because it isn't always there. You will definitely regret it if...

This is the second time I’ve had New Life bbq and I love how they let the meat shine. Good smoked meats!

Truck driver passing thru the area and googled maps “BBQ”… this was the closet location to a BBQ joint, and boy was I impressed. Had the BBQ spare ribs, which were A-1 (very good), owner stated he’s from Central Texas and uses a smoker with Oak Wood method, very fond of that. First time trying Mexican street corn which were creamy and delightful Mac and cheese were very good as well. Last but not least, the corn bread. Never had cornbread that tasted like ice cream (compliment), each bite was delightful and wanting more. Highly recommend for travelers or BBQ lovers. Will be back again...
