Meet Bowlegged BBQ

Bowlegged BBQ is a Stance family business operated by siblings, nieces, nephews, and cousins who all play key roles in their success. Birthed by Ken, Carlos, and Maria with an innate desire to create a long-lasting community in San Diego, they use recipes passed down from generation-to-generation.

Maria uses her culinary creativity to bring the flavor to Bowlegged BBQ. Carlos uses his passion for creating community-based environments to cultivate culture around their food. And Ken is the cheerful leader who brought his childhood nickname of “Bowlegged” Stance to this booming BBQ business.

The East Texas BBQ recipes at Bowlegged create a culture that cannot be replicated. They are inspired by the fact that their ancestors did not have the privilege nor capability to showcase the gift of their culinary craft. This food means to them simply FAMILY. Bowlegged BBQ has taken that principle to heart which has produced a growing community filled with love and friendship throughout San Diego and the country.

The folks at Bowlegged BBQ know that small businesses can stand together through tough times with clear communication, collaboration, and encouragement. They want to break the narrative that business is an island, rather that businesses help to build and are a part of the community.
