BEACH PIT BBQ- TUSTIN GARAGE

It was a warm, sunny day and we were feeling like BBQ. Still feeling adventuresome, we decided to try another new place- Beach Pit BBQ in the Tustin Garage in Old Town Tustin ( www.beachpitbbq.com/ ). We had read some good reviews on this place, but after we were inside the restaurant we saw a family come in with two children carrying their Happy Meal bags. We couldn't help but think that maybe they know something we don't.

We found out later that everything is overpriced and the portions inconsistent. The Half Racks of Baby Back Ribs were tasty, but small with wizzened and bony pieces hiding beneath. The BBQ Chicken pieces were smallish and lacking in flavor. The Tri-Tip was very dry. However, I felt the Smoked Sausage was delicious. Both the mild and spicy BBQ sauces were good, but served on the side. None of the meat was cooked with the BBQ Sauce. What's up with that? The sides were very inexpensive, but also very small. The Macaroni and Cheese and the Sweet Potato Fries were both very bland.
