Jerk Pork”

Back A Yard

638 N 13th St San Jose, CA 95113 (5 locations)

This East Side Menlo Park hole in the wall has grown to 5 locations! It used to be our
go to spot driving back to San Jose from SF when Hungry. If you have not had Jerk BBQ, this is the place to start and maybe end with. Jerk is a very unique and complex flavor. Consider a marinade with allspice, thyme, Scotch Bonnet peppers, and so much more. It’s a unique flavor profile. The chicken is amazing too but for me, the pork is just more rich and flavorful. The meat is deeply marinated and then charred with grill flavor. More sauce is served on the side along with rice and fried plantains. The rest of the menu is amazing too. But start with the pork and Back A Yard will go into your regular dining out rotation.
