Don't know about that, but if you're into driving a little ways north, check out Rasta Dwight's BBQ in Cotati.  Excellent pork ribs, pork sandwich; brisket is also good but sometimes just a tad dry; the "jerk" chicken isn't what I think of as jerk, but it's pretty tasty.  The side dishes are excellent, especially the collard greens; a pork sand. & greens makes an awesome meal!  Quite reasonably priced, Dwight's is in a mini-mall on the Cotati main drag, across from Zone Music; heading north you'd take the Hwy 116 exit, turn right on the main drag and right again into the mini-mall.

About a week ago I ate at the Buckeye (along the freeway at the exit for Tam Junction) for the first time. My friends probably like it more than I do. The foods are all cooked well enough and the ingredients of a okay quality but I found the sauces on the meats (ribs, pulled pork shoulder sandwiches and brisket) to be on the sweet side, especially the ribs.

The grilled swordfish was the least interesting.

I liked the duck breast and the pulled pork the best. They had a beer (Full Sail Nut Brown Ale?) that was was great with their meats.

Although it is not world class  and may not be what you think of when you think "barbecue", it may fill your need.
