After retiring from professional football, Bubba and wife Sabrina opened a catering business that featured traditional southern-style Bar-B-Q cuisine. Bubba also launched a series of signature sauces and dry-rubs that have won over even the toughest Bar-B-Q connoisseurs across the country.
With that enormous passion ever present, Bubba’s-Q reached the pinnacle of success in Northeast Ohio by being named Cleveland Magazine’s, Silver Spoon Award, winners “Best Ribs” and “Best Barbecue Restaurant” 2010 four consecutive years.
Bubba’s barbecuing roots can be traced back to the 1950’s in Jacksonville, Florida. Bubba’s uncle, “Daddy Jr.,” took him under his wing, showing him the secrets of the family business. Daddy Jr. is none other than the owner of Jenkins Quality Barbeque, considered one of the finest barbeque restaurants not only in the south, but the entire country.
Under his uncle’s meticulous guidance, Bubba became Daddy Jr.’s personal apprentice. Generations of family recipes have been verbally passed down to Bubba. He also learned the art of slow smoking and what type of wood best accents the different flavors of each cut of meat. As his Daddy Jr. always said, “each ingredient has a job and a purpose”. Bubba not only embodies this, but actually lives by that slogan as evidenced by his award winning sauces and dry-rubs today. See if you can pick out the distinct spices in each bottle of sauce, just as Daddy Jr. and Bubba can.

Order was on time and good serving sizes. The only thing I didn't like was the macaroni and cheese along with the baked beans tasted the same with their spicy seasoning. That should be optional my son wouldn't eat either of them.

The food was DELICIOUS! We were expecting a full slab to be more meat. We also received a text that it was ready, then left our house to pick it up. We still had to wait 5-10 minutes at the truck. I would've rather waited a little longer at home.

Ribs and Beens are tasty, but Mac and cheese could use some work. They also forgot to give us our beverage and we had to come back and get it

The food ( ribs over mac /cheese with barbecue sauce ) was very tasty 😋 but should have been served hotter ( temp wise not spice ) !!!
