Nobody does BBQ like CowgirlQ. We use the best equipment, the finest cuts of meat, and the freshest ingredients whether we’re roasting, smoking, or doing live fire grilling. If you’re craving an unforgettable grilling experience, here’s what you can expect CowgirlQ to deliver.
1. Live Fire Grilling
Live fire grilling is when we bring the grill to your event — whether that’s in a backyard, indoor venue, or business. Guests will get to see the meat being prepared as they snack on appetizers and drinks.
Depending on the type of BBQ you’ve ordered, we may use fuel from a variety of regions across the US and Mexico. Our Pecan comes from Georgia, Post Oak is sourced from Texas, Hickory is from Texas, and California Oak is sourced from Ramona. Oak Charcoal is brought in from Utah, Mesquite charcoal is ordered from Mexico, and Grapevine is sourced from various local wineries.
2. Roasting
Some of our dishes are roasted directly over fire or a bed of coals. This allows meats to cook slowly, reduces fat content, and helps to ensure the meat isn’t burned on the outside or raw in the middle.
3. Smoking
Smoking is an art that we’ve perfected at CowgirlQ. Whether you want chicken wings, sliders, or fire fruit, our Southern Pride smoker can hold up to 1,000 pounds of chicken, ribs, brisket, and pork. We can also prepare fish, vegetables, burgers, and steak on site. If you’d like a whole hog or butcher-quality meats, we’ll use our mobile rotisserie smoker to give guests a look at the process.
4. Traditional American BBQ
In San Diego, you can enjoy BBQ from all over America if you order from CowgirlQ. We’ve got Tri-Tip, Seafood, and Chicken dishes made with California Red oak over a bed of charcoal. If you’re craving pork and beef, we use tomato and molasses-based sauces from Kansas. If you’re a fan of BBQ from the Carolinas, then you’ve got to try our pork made with a vinegar-pepper and tomato-mustard sauces.
5. Global Cuisine
Our menu items are inspired by flavors around the world. We incorporate the best of each country or region to create truly memorable dishes. Reach out to CowgirlQ to learn about our Mexican BBQ and our Asian BBQ. Or, schedule an appointment to plan your next BBQ with CowgirlQ!
