What Some Clients Have Said -- "We hired The Missing Rib BBQ to cater our event. Wow! It was one of the best decisions for our Fall Festival...(they) were extremely helpful in planning the event with us ...We had a delicious barbeque meal, complete with all the fixings. Give The Missing Rib a call."  -- Dorothea Wasik, Pueblo Vista PFC President "I have used The Missing Rib BBQ service several times. They have barbequed Prime Rib, Chicken, and TriTip, and done all the side dishes to go with it. Everything was prepared on time and with a great barbeque taste. His prices and service are above and beyond what I had expected." -- Rick McDaniel, Beringer Brothers Winery "When I tasted Jim's barbeque, I wanted to know where in the South he was raised. When he told me he was from here in California, I couldn't believe that a West Coast boy could capture the authentic flavors of true southern style barbeque. When he served the mustard BBQ sauce for the pulled-pork, I knew he knew what he was doing."  -- David Brown, Band Member, Pam's Country Jam "Jim Carte and 'The Missing Rib' catered the food for my wife's 50th Birthday party. We ended the night with 50 very satisfied guests who would all agree that the barbeque he provided was delicious. I would heartily endorse Jim and his traveling smoker anytime." -- Bob Reeves, Loan Consultant for Investors Trust in Napa "I have found that Jim Carte combines very unique flavors in his barbeque. With his use of rubs and the types of wood he burns along with a meticulous cooking technique, he creates a truly fabulous Epicurean delight. For me, barbeque in the Napa area is The Missing Rib BBQ."  --  Dr. John Dermody, Napa Valley Family Medical Group  **Additional references are available upon request**
