The Hot Box BBQ

Amazing food at a reasonable price! I stopped by and ordered the original BBQ sandwich and ribs—both were outstanding. The meat was flavorful and tender, the coleslaw was fresh, and the bun was perfect. The ribs were a great size and incredibly tender, and the BBQ sauce on both items was excellent. The man preparing our food (I believe his name was Andre) was very personable and provided excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Loved it! My wife and I pulled up 1 hr to closing. The very nice guy at the counter took our order of a half rack of ribs. He was quick, kind and man are those ribs good! Very tender and the sauce was delicious on top of them. Came with 6, massive ribs. Will definitely be back to try out everything else. Definitely go if you've been thinking about it!

My boyfriend and I have been going here for about 4 years now and there isn’t a place I’d rather eat in Sonoma or Marin County. The people who work here are so friendly and kind, and the BBQ sauce is insanely good. Their potato salad is fantastic; I get the volcano without fail. Add a little side of bbq sauce to add to your potato salad and you’ll find heaven. This place deserves all the customers so don’t deprive yourself and miss out on this gem.

Best ribs and pulled pork in Northern California! We wish they would do brisket, but the meats are amazing! This is a style unlike any other bbq in the country. We drove 50 minutes for this bbq and we will do it every time we are craving ribs and pulled pork. The owner and his family are the nicest people you would ever meet and you will not be disappointed! Remember this bbq is his own style and delicious!

Stopped by the hot box truck on our way to the river and WOW! I will never be getting another sandwich for River days! We got the Vietnam-nam-nam w/pork and one with jalapeño jelly + pork. They were super juicy and tasty, well balanced and a good size. We both got coleslaw sides which were delicious and perfectly peppery. I can’t wait to try all of the sandwiches! Highly recommend!!
