ABOUT BACK FORTY


A consistent award-winner, and one of the nation’s Top-24 Barbeque Teams, BACK FORTY has been invited to Reno every year since 1991 to compete in the National Rib Cook-Off. Routinely voted the #1 Barbeque in California, BACK FORTY set a precedent in the national contest, being Voted #1 Four Times In A Row!
Twice in a row, separate panels of impartial judges voted BACK FORTY’s BBQ Sauce #1 IN THE NATION. In consecutive years, the 400,000 attendees sampling Barbeque Ribs from all over the nation twice voted Back Forty THE BEST.
Owners, Steve and Cheriece Troike, have extensive backgrounds in the restaurant industry. A past working relationship with Back Forty president, Jeff Erb, led the Roseville residents to a business opportunity and the lifetime dream of finally owning their own restaurant.

After training at the Pleasant Hill location, they personally and painstakingly renovated and decorated their Roseville BACK FORTY location prior to the Grand Opening on July 10, 1995.
Welcome! Steve & Cheriece Troike.
