Barbecue joint to aid Haitian relief

Beach Pit BBQ will donate all of its proceeds from meal sales Thursday to the Haitian earthquake relief effort.

Tim DeCinces, founder and manager of the restaurant, is giving proceeds from his locations in Costa Mesa, Tustin and Orange to Peace Relief, a local organization leaving this week on a humanitarian mission to Haiti. DeCinces was inspired by his 9-year-old daughter, Delaney, who raised $85 from a bake sale for post-earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. The Costa Mesa Beach Pit BBQ location is at:

1676 Tustin Ave.

Costa Mesa 92627

(949) 645-7427
