This place was delicious! I got the 2 meats (brisket and pork belly) and 1 side (potato salad) and it was delicious. The meat was so juicy and fatty. I definitely want to come back to try their breakfast menu. The owner and server were super sweet and attentive!

Great spot for meat lover as they offer a variety of dishes, such as classic BBQ, burgers, burritos. They make the sauce in house and it enhances the flavor so much!!

I should’ve left when I noticed there was only two tables eating. I found out that Dino ribs are only served on the weekends. I ordered pork ribs, tri-tip and Macaroni and cheese with a Dr Pepper 40$ I got three pork ribs. They were OK. The tri-tip was so dry and extremely thin. I couldn’t even finish it. I was forcing myself to swallow it because I didn’t want to waste food and I ended up just throwing the rest in the trash because it was hard to swallow, the macaroni and cheese needed salt It was extremely bland. It tasted like water. The bread roll tasted like it came off the clearance rack at Stater Brothers and it’s about two weeks old When I went and got my soda, the ice was melting So my soda got water down And not to mention, there was a lot of oil at the bottom of my macaroni and cheese container. I don’t know what’s going on over there, but I will not be back. I have never been to Kansas before, but I don’t think Kansas would be proud of this barbecue

Great BBQ place. Had been wanting to visit for a long time and I’m glad we did. We ordered the holly trinity for the wife and I and some chicken tenders and ribs for the kiddos. The meat was delicious as were the sides. The kids liked the meat but Mc and cheese was the star for them. Price are very reasonable and the service was great, would definitely recommend.

Very clean & welcoming! Went to have dinner with fam, and the portions were perfect. Ordered a large meat fries with brisket, they were so good! Fries were crispy and meat was flavorful.
Service was good, very attentive to everyone & the atmosphere was causal/relaxing.

Saturday 12pm & this place is dead. I don’t get it. This is easily top 5 of the bbq I’ve been had in California. The service is great and the bbq is really good. I’m not a huge fan of the pepper rub they use, but that doesn’t take away from the perfect smoke on the bbq. Give ’em a shot!

The food is moist juicy and flavorful. I have had brisket that I have paid more for and was dry. Here they don’t skimp on anything. Do the sampler plate if it’s your first time. It gives a great representation of all there great meats. Will come back and many times recommend.

I really like the spot, staff was super friendly, lots of seating, plenty of nearby parking and clean bathrooms. I was there for the breakfast burrito which was serviceable but not the most amazing one I’ve ever had. My sense is that I just ordered the wrong thing and was there for the wrong meal and I’ll definitely be going back to try the barbecue, which from the look of things is probably really good. The prices were fair and I just really like the whole spot. It’s great to have a solid BBQ place in Redlands

This review is for the location inside Redlands Public Market.
@cornerstonebbq_redlands brought the meats. I had the Holy Trinity with pork ribs, brisket, and 2 jalepeno cheddar sausages. Sides were a corn salad and mashed potatoes.
All the meats were great. Cheddar dogs had a nice snap when you bit into them. Brisket had a glorious rub on it and a definite smokey flavor. Pork ribs were surprised meaty. I especially enjoyed the variety of sauces they offer, but let it be known that the meat stood on its own. Cornerstone was definitely on their game today.

I really wanted to love this place. After months of eyeing their food on Instagram, I finally made the trip, only to realize I’d fallen for the hype. This wasn’t just a “bad meal”; it was a series of lazy choices that felt like a slap in the face to anyone who actually knows BBQ.
The Meat: Warmth is Optional, Apparently:
I ordered the meat sampler, thinking it’d be a great introduction. It wasn’t.
The Ribs: For the price, getting only four ribs felt like a joke. Worse? They were barely warm.
Zero Seasoning: I literally touched the rib meat to my tongue to check for salt. Nothing. Seriously how do you not use a week seasoned dry rub on your ribs?! They clearly rely on the 3 sauce they have to mask the fact that the meat is completely unseasoned and one of their BBQ sauces was way too sweet.
The Rest: The brisket was sliced paper-thin, the chicken was boneless (hardly BBQ in my book), and the pulled pork was forgettable.
The One Bright Spot: The only thing worth eating was the jalapeño cheese sausage. It was flavorful, spicy, and clearly made in-house (I think). It’s a shame everything else couldn’t meet that standard.
The Sides: A Lack of Love
The Mac and Cheese was the most disappointing part of the tray. It was dry, bland, and lukewarm—it felt like it was made with zero love. The Cornbread was even worse. It tasted pre-cooked and sat in oil far too long, resulting in a weird texture with no sweetness or corn flavor. The rolls were store bought. The only hot thing on my plate? The fries. Thank God for the fries.
Service & Atmosphere
The Setup: Don’t expect a sit-down experience. You have to order at the counter yourself. Music was bland country.
The Vibe: The staff seemed like they’d rather be anywhere else. The bartender didn’t smile once, and the front desk was indifferent at best.
The Drink Situation: If you want fresh sweet tea to wash down your BBQ, look elsewhere. They only serve Pepsi products.
The “Dino Rib” Trap: Don’t show up on a weekday expecting the big ribs you see online; they’re a weekend-only gimmick.
The Verdict: When a BBQ spot can’t even get the temperature or season their food, it’s a sign they’ve stopped trying. I won’t be back.
