In Short – The once-shoddy storefront has been cleaned up with fresh paint and a sign proclaiming "BBQ" in large cut-out letters. Doug's is takeout only, so the interior decor is sparse. Go with the usual sausage, chicken, or ribs, or be a bit adventurous and try lamb or turkey meat. Hot, medium and mild sauces help to find the perfect balance for any palate, and sweet potato pie for dessert comes highly recommended.

Delicious Texas style barbeque

by jack_n_marin at Citysearch

This place is so good. Yummy, I love their barbeque chicken and be sure and get some bananna pudding. Man, I am getting hungry thinking about it. You don't eat here though you get it to go although one time I couldn't wait and ate my chicken in my car. I like their spicey sauce too. This is the best barbeque I have had in the bay area!

  • Pros: delicious barbeque and sides, desserts and the sauce three to choose from
  • Cons: Must get it to go!

it's no Flint's

by til_later at Citysearch

I really do miss Flints so maybe I'm just biased that said -- in my most recent search for good BBQ I stumbled across Dougs. While it is not the worst BBQ in the Bay area --theres nothing special there. We ordered pork ribs (sandwich size) and the 2-way platter with lamb and brisket. Total about $25. The pork ribs where passable but the sauce (we ordered the hot was not and had a cloying sweetness, a sense of too much MSG and the favors were not well blended.) As for the lamb and brisket couldnt tell which was which (or maybe they accidentally left out one) but it was really (grossly) fatty (you couldnt even see the sauce through melted fat.) In the end the combo was put away unfinished, and we ate the ribs (passable in a pinch but not the stuff of dreams)

great bbq take-out

by argot55 at Citysearch

Really great beef ribs! They also have fried turkey, which many of the bbq spots don't have. Very nice people too.

  • Pros: delicious
  • Cons: take-out
