Our Secret? It's No SecretâJust Salt, Pepper, Smoke, and Time
While others take shortcuts, we honor Texas tradition
Our Legendary Brisket
This is what we're known for. Every brisket is hand-trimmed, seasoned with just salt and pepper, then smoked low and slow for up to 18 hours. The result? A perfect bark, a gorgeous smoke ring, and meat so tender it melts in your mouth. This isn't just BBQâit's the centerpiece of your event.
Competition-Quality Ribs
Fall-off-the-bone tender with a perfect balance of smoke and seasoning. These aren't your backyard ribsâthese are the ribs that win competitions.
Juicy Pulled Pork
Shoulder smoked to perfection, hand-pulled (never shredded by machine), and served with our house-made BBQ sauce on the side.
Authentic Texas Sausage
Because no Texas BBQ spread is complete without it. Juicy, snappy, and full of flavor.
Sides That Shine
Our sides aren't afterthoughtsâthey're crafted to complement the star of the show. From BBQ baked beans to creamy mac and cheese, honey apple cornbread to peach cobbler, every side is made with the same care as our BBQ.

Here's what event planners and hosts are saying about New Life BBQ:
Best bqq I've ever had super flavorful very good serving sizes. Have had bqq in Texas but this is way better. Very easy to order as well as very nice cashier. Very quick to get our food. Very easy to find there truck with no noise around very nice area parked under the shade. I usually don't like Mac and cheese but theirs is really good very good serving in the bowl meal. The cornbread is amazing very good flavor and texture. The pork belly just melts in your mouth from how soft as well as the ribs such a good size rib. Very big peace of brisket very good with the fat and charr on it. Never had street corn like theirs but very good in its own way. A must try if you can. Wanted to take pictures but so excited to try it so sorry for no pictures 
Very friendly owners. Great service, Great BBQ & Sides. First time visit and definitely be going back.! O ya fantastic desserts too.!! 
I am very picky about barbecue and I've been trying to find a place closer to me. This place has been recommended on all platforms. I went today for the first time all I'm gonna say damn is it good? I got a brisket plate for my sister and I got the pork ribs. You can literally taste a hint of the smoke in the meat. It is amazing. I cannot believe this place And I wish I would've found them sooner. This is the best you want some good barbecue. You're not too far from this area you got to go here the corn cornbread is amazing. It's a dessert in itself. I got a new place to go and they do take credit cards and Apple Pay. Just an FYI. 
I rolled up on this spot on the side of the freeway coming from work and hands down one of the best BBQ spots I've tried in the Inland Empire! The food came out fast, way quicker than most places and every bite was packed with flavor. If you've been hunting for legit BBQ out here, this place delivers. Easily in my top 3. The portion sizes were great, they load you up with more meat than most spots. Highly recommend the pork belly and Dino beef ribs, both were juicy, tender, and cooked to perfection. And don't sleep on the Elote corn... it was so good my girl stole mine after finishing hers! If you love BBQ or just want to try something new and actually worth your money, do yourself a favor and check this place out. I'll definitely be back. Make sure you get some extra sauce, it has a honey kick that I really enjoyed! 
I tried your BBQ today for the first time. I had the Brisket with Mac N Cheese and Coleslaw.IM DEAD IT WAS AMAZING
