Haley's Review of Riot BBQ
Riot BBQ on South Delaware feels like a backyard cookout run by a Top Chef, because it is. Chef Manny Barella and pitmaster Patrick Klaiber have teamed up to blend Monterrey flavors with Texas-style smoke, and the results are seriously craveable.
The brisket steals the show: tender, deeply smoky, and finished with Barella’s bold spice rub. Get it solo or wrapped in buttery Raquelita tortillas. The pulled pork brings heat with ancho, guajillo, and morita chiles, and the al pastor ribs are sticky, sweet, and slightly charred in all the right ways.
Even the sides are insanely good! Think crunchy pepita-macha slaw and banana pudding served in a jar that tastes just like childhood (but better). Every bite feels intentional.
It’s barbecue with heart, history, and just the right amount of heat. Riot BBQ isn’t just a meal, it’s a moment worth lining up for.

📍 Local Insights
🚗 Best Arrival: The gravel road is steep and sometimes muddy—regular cars manage, but after rain give it an extra minute.
🎒 Pack Extras: Weather flips fast on the hill—bring an extra layer and dry shoes for morning dew or afternoon rain.
🧺 Picnic Nook: There’s a hidden table near the treeline, great for quiet lunches or a bottle of their blueberry wine with a view.
🌱 Harvest Window: For peak picking, mid-July to early August is prime—call ahead late season to check what’s still on the bushes.
