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
🥟 Weekday Quiet: Mid-afternoon during the week is usually calm—skip the lunch crush.
🌶️ Sauce Ritual: Try the orange chili sauce with beef momos; locals swear by a dunk before every bite.
🍲 Soup Szn: The thukpa and jhol momos hit hardest when it’s cold or rainy out.
🍫 Sweet Finish: Always ask if dessert dumplings are available—they sell out first on weekends.
