Updated: Mar 14

Attention, Murrieta BBQ enthusiasts! Are you ready to elevate your barbecue experience? Do you crave smoky, tender meats, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection? Then look no further than Swing Inn Cafe & Barbeque, your one-stop shop for Texas-style craft BBQ that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you wanting more.


The Quest for Perfect Barbeque: Hank's Tank and the Art of Smoking



Swing Inn Cafe isn't just another barbecue restaurant. We're home to Hank's Tank, a colossal 1,150-gallon smoker that imbues our meats with a unique, smoky flavor you won't find anywhere else. Our pitmasters are seasoned veterans, wielding their tongs and thermometers like maestros, coaxing the best out of every cut of meat. Whether you're a brisket enthusiasts or a pulled pork fanatic, we have something to satisfy your cravings.


Unveiling the Magic: Texas-Style Craft BBQ at Swing Inn Cafe


Introducing Alfonso, the Smoke Master of Swing Inn Cafe:


Meet Alfonso, the man behind the magic at Swing Inn Cafe! As the pitmaster, he reigns supreme over Hank's Tank, our colossal 1,150-gallon smoker, where he transforms humble cuts into mouth watering barbecue masterpieces.



Alfonso's dedication goes beyond just tending the fire. He relies on years of experience and a keen eye to achieve smoky perfection. Take our beef and pork ribs, for example: they spend 4-6 hours in his care, emerging with a mahogany hue, perfect flexibility, and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. He ensures every bite is free of hard fat, with the rendered goodness evenly distributed throughout the meat.


But ribs are just the beginning. Alfonso devotes 12 hours to smoking our barbecue briskets, achieving the ideal balance between rendered fat and a satisfyingly crunchy bark. For our pastrami, he employs a special technique, finishing with a foil wrap that steams the meat to perfection, capturing the authentic deli-style flavor and texture.


And don't forget the pork shoulder! Placed strategically in the hotter section of the smoker, this fatty cut absorbs the heat beautifully. It's a testament to Alfonso's skill that he can transform even the most challenging cuts into succulent delights.


But for Alfonso, it's more than just a job; it's a passion. "Hard work, but it's a passion," he says, "I wouldn't be doing anything else, honestly. I enjoy what I do. It beats anything else in the world for me."


So, next time you visit Swing Inn Cafe, be sure to thank Alfonso for his dedication. His passion for smoking is evident in every bite, and it's what makes our barbeque


More Than Just Meat:


But our passion extends beyond just the protein. We offer a delectable array of homemade sides that perfectly complement our BBQ, alongside a curated selection of beers to enhance your meal. From creamy mac and cheese to tangy coleslaw, crispy onion rings, and a cold, refreshing beer to wash it down, each side is crafted with care to create a truly harmonious.
