He visited for lunch outdoors, and the family prepared an authentic Santa Maria Style Barbecue for him. However, the ranch isn’t open to the public. The same family, however, runs the Far Western Tavern and Susie Q’s Brand.

Did he actually visit a ranch in the video and eat dinner there? Do you know the name of the ranch he visited and whether the public can go there to eat? The place they ate in the show was NOT a sit down, indoor building. They were eating outside:)

Thanks

So you can get a very similar taste to what Bobby Flay got at the restaurant, and you can do it yourself with Susie Q’s seasoning and other products. Similar experiences include the Hitching Post and Shaw’s restaurants, and the Hitching Post’s BBQ2You products. Enjoy!

If my memory serves me, the ranch had been in the same family for generations. Anyway, he was served great steaks and bbq. I was wondering if anyone nows where this place is and the show it was featured on? Is the ranch open to the public for dining?

Thanks

This is what SANTA MARIA STYLE BBQ is . The key word here is ( open fire )

Kottcamp http://santamariavalleybbq.com/2011/11/11/santa-maria-sizzles-in-skywest-magazine/#comment-652 Thu, 17 Nov 2011 17:33:15 +0000 http://santamariavalleybbq.com/?p=923#comment-652 Your official Santa Maria BBQ web site, as well as other web sites, make reference to the use of “red oak” in the preparation of authentic Santa Maria BBQ Style tri-tip, and, it is further stated that the red oak is native to the Santa Maria Valley.

There are two species of red oak in the U.S., the northern red oak (Quercus rubra), which is found in the northeast, and the southern red oak, also called the Spanish oak, (Quercus falcata), which is found in the southern U.S. Neither species of red oak naturally occurs in California.

Perhaps the reference to red oak in the Santa Maria Valley is to one of the members of a group of oaks (Lobatae) within the genus Quercus that are referred to as red oaks. Include in this red oak group (Lobatae) is the coastal live oak (Quercus agrifolia) that is common in the Coast Range, including the Santa Maria Valley.

Any information you can provide will be appreciated.

Thank you.
