@jfhernandeze You need to register the command in your app/start/artisan.php file:

Artisan::add(new ClearBeanstalkdQueueCommand);

I've made a composer package for this to help anyone else out - https://github.com/morrislaptop/laravel-queue-clear

This is awesome!

Just to be clear, the Gist above by @lukaswhite is for Laravel 4 and the package by @morrislaptop is for Laravel 5.

Life saver :)

THANK YOUUUUUUU

I don't know if this will help anyone. Delete a specific job from beanstalk for laravel 4.

$res = Queue::getPheanstalk();
$job = $res->peek(29); //29 is the job id i want to delete
$res->delete($job);

I've posted my implementation for Laravel 5.1 https://gist.github.com/cheelahim/ded1ab9e5e9a290fe9fc
