Smoked, Glazed, and Ready for the Holidays
Our Holiday Ham is back—slow-smoked with a rich mustard molasses glaze and just the right touch of orange, honey, and cloves. It’s the kind of ham that makes the holidays feel right. Swing by to pick it up anytime between 12/14 and 12/24. It’s $90, and we’ve only got a limited batch, so once we’re out, that’s it. Pre-orders open on November 1st.
Tri-Tip Chili – Fall Special
Our Tri-Tip Chili is packed with tender, smoky tri-tip and topped off with crunchy corn chips, sharp cheddar, and fresh green onions. Served up with a side of golden cornbread to complete the perfect fall meal. No beans here, just hearty, bold flavors that let the chili do all the talking. This is how chili is meant to be done.
Available for a limited time – don’t miss out!

Aptos Post Office Jumps
In 1986, local kids in Aptos, California, started building dirt jumps near the post office. These jumps, known as the Aptos Post Office Jumps, became a hub for the youth, promoting creativity and camaraderie. Over the years, they evolved into a world-famous course, attracting riders globally to display their skills.
When Aptos St. BBQ opened in 2009, its first loyal customers were the cycling community frequenting the jumps. The restaurant and the riders built a strong bond, making it a favorite spot for BBQ after a day on the jumps.
Although the jumps have been dismantled, Aptos St. BBQ continues to serve the cycling community, honoring the legacy of the jumps and their impact on our town.
