The Scene – Husband-and-wife team Debra and Ronald Wise are still having fun, even though they opened their tiny takeout barbecue joint way back in 1980. Debra's the smiling face at the order counter; Ron's in back scooping the goods onto buns. This lunch-only spot fills up with workers and baseball fans before a matinee game, but the lines keep moving steadily along. – – The Food – Dainty food this is not. It isn't for folks who mind a mess; it's for those who seek one. Ham, hot links and shredded beef and pork get the sweet-smoke treatment with three levels of…
Editor's Tips
- Where to Sit:
- There is no indoor seating, but many picnic tables outside. Of those, two are under a roof.
- Know Before You Go:
- Even the medium sauce is hot; mild is a good choice for the majority of folks.
- The Extras:
- The joint is located a four blocks south of Safeco--it's a bit of a hike, but you'll welcome the exercise after your calorie-fest.
3 Stars for Not Being Open

I drove here at 5pm on a Friday and they were closed for some reason. I was so bummed because I read so many great things about this place.
I will try it at some point, but it will have to be sometime in the future. I will call ahead.

"Pork, hot on the side, with a side spike", I yell as my mouth waters and my feet start freezing. I am Standing outside of Pecos Pit BBQ on First Ave S.
Most Seattleites have been or at least heard of Pecos Pit and I personally hadn't been there for over 4 years. The decision came, at lunch, after a meeting, with a non King County co-worker of mine, cash in hand we decided to go.
It was worth it and then some! Pecos pit has always been known to have great service, tender BBQ meats and a hot sauce that will make you sweat. None of that has changed, during my brief trip back, I was greeted and my order taken in the happy timely manner I remembered.
Waiting for my order, I worried what the drive back to the Eastside would do to my sandwich. 15 minutes later, my sandwich was still warm, and the meat still tender. The sauce that I had asked for on the side, was still secure in it's cup, and my hotlink was perfect. I have to say, that as far as BBQ sandwich goes, Pecos is top notch.
- Pros: Cheap and Tasty
- Cons: Cash only, little parking
The Best Place In The U.S. For BBQ Pork And Beef Sandwiches
by WilliamAC at Citysearch
After having regularly taken orders for employs in my Everett office headquartered business during the first 10 years of Pecos' existence, I have been in Nashville for the past 20 years,
I was so happly on to see last June 26, 2009, Ron and Dana are still serving up exactly the same exceptional bbq they were 20 years ago!
This is a 'family' crew that is truly committed to the best bbq and sausages in the world.
- Pros: Everything Including Wondeful Ron And Dana Founders
- Cons: Zero
Great BBQ
by mikebo at Citysearch
It just tastes good. The sauce is good and I recommend 'spiking' it, which means adding a hotlink to your sandwich. You really can't go wrong by eating here.
- Pros: Tasty food
- Cons: no indoor seating
