I once worked at the original <a title=\"Summerland\" href=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/?p=88\">Big Yellow House in Summerland, CA<\/a> \u2014 but that&#8217;s another story, another time. Aside from the BBQ and Cajun menu, Lucille&#8217;s has two quality offerings: the music and the bar. If you like blues and southern rock you&#8217;ll love the canned music. If you like to drink, you&#8217;ll love the bar. Serving over 20 drafts on tap, there are some excellent choices: New Belgium Ranger IPA, Stone IPA, Hangar 24 Orange Wheat, Lucille&#8217;s Hefeweizen along with standards that include Fat Tire and Guinness. They serve a number of specialty drinks with influences from the South and Carribean, plus a list of Martinis made from Gin, Vodka and Rum.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not to be confused with B.B. King&#8217;s guitar (Lucille) or his club and restaurant, you&#8217;ll find Lucille&#8217;s Smokehouse in California, Arizona and Nevada. I&#8217;ve had better ribs elsewhere although the pulled pork is delicious. The bar, named the Flying Pig, however is my favorite part of this chain.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-square_smaller wp-image-555\" src=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-70x70.jpg\" alt=\"bbbh\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-70x70.jpg 70w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-130x130.jpg 130w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/bluehighways.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/bbbh.jpg 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 70px) 100vw, 70px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lucille&#8217;s Smokehouse is a chain that occupies many of the former &#8216;Big Yellow House&#8217; restaurants when that chain closed.
