Anyone been to a new Bar-B- Q joint in Belen? A friend of mine who lives there told me the ribs were some of the best he’s had anywhere. Said it just opened a few weeks ago by a gringo and is strictly take out.

About a month and a half ago, I met a guy at the bar in SL, and he was telling me about a friend of his was opening a BBQ place with Kansas style BBQ. Sorry, cant remember the guy's name. But,..he did say the guy knew BBQ.

I'm currently in process of opening Costa Rica's first and only traditional American-style barbecue restaurant, All American Barbecue, near my home in San Ramon de Tres Rios. I expect to open in November and to advertise on this website as well as offering CRT VIP discounts. I'll let everyone know when we're open and hope to renew many old acquaintances and make some new ones.

I don’t think it’s the same restaurant. Talked to my friend to day and he said it was called Big Bills Q and it was about a block south of the plaza. He said they had ribs, chicken, pulled pork and brisket cooked over wood on a smoker the guy brought from the states, I not in CR now but I’ll check it out when I get down.

No, it's not my place. I'm still a couple of weeks away from opening and am located in San Ramon de Tres Rios, east of San Jose. The name of my place is All-American Barbecue. I'm also planning takeout and delivery service but also have a few tables for dining. I'll be interested in trying Big Bill's and wish him success.

I couldn't come up with any hot poop on Big Bill's BBQ but did come up with this terrif Website on US food in the US. Check it out, Heartlanders and those who find them comforting: http://www.ranchandfarmworld.com/jack_t ... sid=MjAxNA

There is a place called Authentic Texas BBQ in Heredia. It is in San Juaquin next to Pizza Hut. Best BBQ I've ever had in CR. They got Ribs, Brisket, Burgers, Chicken. Ive tried them all and they are all very good. The owner is from Texas and is doing a good job. They also got a bar. On Friday and Saturdays they got karaoke and the place is packed. Lots of hot local girls.If any one has been to Luthers BBQ in the stated thats what the owner modeled his place after.

Good tip, but I don't know Heredia too well. Is this a plaza?
