Texas pit BBQ --- FAIL.
We were so excited to find there was a pit BBQ place near by. After searching for it for 40 minutes ( a wild goose chase as they have moved a few times and the address listed above is no longer
valid), we arrived at a trailer. Okay. Not to be too judgy, but really?
The smoke house aroma was enticing...
we ordered a chopped beef sandwich, two racks of baby backs, collard greens, texas beans, and macaroni salad, all for take away.
The ribs looked steamed...no rub, no flavor. The greens were bland. The chopped beef was not a true texas pit bbq chopped beef sandwich, and the bbq sauce tasted like kc masterpiece.
The whole experience was a serious let down.
I ended up reseasoning the ribs and popping them under the broiler. meh.
All in all I'd suggest giving this pit bbq a miss. Sorry, folks.…
What Portland's been missing for so long!. Charles, the owner, is the nicest guy you will ever meet. My favorite dish is the pulled pork with Texas beans and for dessert, pecan pie. Charles does Texas BBQ right and is hands-down the best barbecue in town. I've tried many other establishments that charge 2x as much and they're lacking. Meat is moist with a smoky flavor and a great price. AMAZING!…
Smoky, moist, and delicious.. Solid BBQ, and trust me, I've had my fair share of good and bad BBQ. They have $1 sandwiches with a pork/brisket/sauce combination on a hamburger bun, and is better than anything you can find for that value. Their pulled pork is possibly the best I've had. The pork ribs were great. The brisket was decent. The texas style sandwiches carry a hefty price of $10 (for just the sandwich) but they are large and in charge and could feed 2 people. They also have $7 sandwiches if you want something cheaper. The sauce always depends on personal taste, it's more sweet than spicy (which I like) but I love it. The sides could be better, however. The slaw, macaroni, and potato solids are all good, but the beans had a little too much chili flavor, but I still finished them and the corn bread should be served warm. The guy Charles that r uns the place is a real nice guy, I plan on taking advantage of the little patio area this summer.…
I didnt want to use utensils!. Delicious Texas Pit BBQ, catered a family meal event for a group of NG soldier and we were on a tight budget. They worked with us and the food was amazing. I never had brisket before but now I am sold. I would recommend them over and over again. THANK YOU!…
Good BarBQ. The sausage links were very good and the best part of the meal. Their brisket is more like roast beef, so I suspect it spends more time in the oven than the smoker, but I didn't ask. The pecan pie is tolerable, but not as good as what they serve up at Buster's.…
