My Grandfather, David Boyd ( Santa Maria High School Stadium is named for him was one of the pioneer who created the original Santa Maria BBQ. Nothing but Tri Tip is used for this dish. It is always cooked open pit over oak wood coals. The rub is a simple salt pepper and garlic salt, overnight. The trim pieces go into the piquento beans, the traditional side dish, for added flavor. It is served with garlic bread and that is it.

I agree with Not Santa Maria BBQ. I was born and raised in Santa Maria. Susie Q's is a must as well as cooking over an oak fire, but we definitely use tri tip not a rib roast. Also should be served with everything stated in the last comment. Nothing compares to good old SM style bbq when done the right way.

REAL SM BBQ involves tritip roast, NOT rib roast. The correct seasonings are salt, pepper, garlic and parsley, NOT sugar! After BBQing the roast until desired temp, it should be served sliced with salsa, pinquito beans, garlic bread and salad containing green leaf lettuce, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and shredded carrots. I should know, I'm from the Central Coast, where this style BBQ originated!
