BEST RIBS EVER! Here from Hawaii and wanted some ribs. Decided to check this place out since they got good reviews. We got a full rack with all the sides to share with my kids. Ribs were fall off the bone tender and had lots of flavor. Definitely a spot to check out again if we visit Washington! read more

I moved to the Seattle area from Chicago four and a half years ago I have not yet found a good barbecue place I just had some from fat pig and I have to say this hits close to home the taste of this barbecue is off the hook very good I would recommend it to anybody and I would definitely be coming back with my family I really enjoyed the full rib meal and I even added a chicken quarter I only ate the leg I was full after that I would be taking the rest for lunch for work tomorrow good job fat pig read more

I had a hard finding this place open. But today my luck was good. I was absolutely delighted with the pulled pork sandwich and I got three individual ribs. That were absolutely huge very generous portions. I definitely will be coming back to this barbecue joint this is my favorite kind a little hole in the wall places that are really good. read more

In short Perrinville has really solid bbq! It's not the hugest place, which means fewer smokers. That means a briefer menu. But the food is good, people are super nice, and prices are great. In long I had some time to kill in the area, and saw the rates for this place being nice and high. You walk past a smoker and a bunch of propane tanks to get to the door. Much as I'd prefer to see stacks of firewood outside a BBQ spot instead of propane, it's all good. Inside, there are a few tables over there, and an order window over here, with a pop cooler next to the window. Checkered tablecloths, some hats for sale, a couple Seahawks signs, casual and laid-back. They mostly focus on ribs, pulled pork, and chicken. You won't find 10-15 different proteins here, like a bigger place farther from town might have. They do have all the usual sides, though. On the table you get rolls of paper towels, a squeeze bottle of dark sauce, and a little pail full of forks. They bring you your food after 10 minutes or so. I checked out the Small Chicken Meal--a thigh, slaw, beans, and a store-bought roll. The sides here are decent, though maybe not special. That's to be expected at almost every BBQ spot in my experience. That thigh was perfect, though--tender, still very moist, really nice sweeter flavor from the sauce. The sauce on the table is a little ketchupy for me but it hits the spot. All this and a pop was barely $20, which is a nice way to price a plate of q. So many places get crazy expensive. That's expected anymore, but finding good q at a good value really is nice. It was empty when I showed up at 4:00, but there was a constant stream of people wandering in after I sat down. So easy to see why. read more

Fat Pig BBQ - This is the Small Chicken Meal. Thigh, 2 sides, roll, $15. Great lunch value. - Barbeque Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Overall good! I got the small ribs meal, which came w 3ribs and 2 sides (which is set as baked beans and coleslaw but you can swap out for others) for ~$14 Honestly, finding a place that is this cheap is amazing! I did not get it but there's a pulled pork sandwich for ~$6. For the price alone it is worth trying. The meat is good but nothing outstanding. The sides were not that great though. You honestly can't beat the price! Not only for BBQ is it cheap, but in general this is cheap food. And tasty! Customer service is also great! read more

Fat Pig BBQ - Small Ribs Meal - Barbeque Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Just had pulled pork sandwich,chips and pop. Meat was tasty and light. Bread awesome. Price is good. Food was great. Good lunch.

I'm conflicted. Do people read my reviews? Does anyone care? If I rate this place the way I really feel will it be taken over by ignorant foodies? Or do I just forego a review hoping that the place forever stays low-key and they never lose their vibe or change their recipes. Bah. Times are hard and I want places like this to thrive. Today is my birthday and I wanted barbecue. We had planned on another local establishment that I had tried before but they ran out of ribs before 5pm. So I did a random search for "barbecue near me" and Fat Pig came up. So glad it did. Their location is not fancy. It is as it should be. As we were pulling in my partner said "This looks like your kind of place." I agreed in stunned silence. Yes it is. Yes it is. We got a rack of ribs, corn, cole slaw, beans and a pulled pork sandwich to go. I wasn't paying (birthday and all) so I don't know how much we paid, but I do know that it was significantly less than the other place that had been sold out. It was, for sure, affordable considering how much food we got. My partner had the pulled pork sandwich, which was less than $7 and said it was 'outstanding.' I asked for samples of their sauces so I got to try the spicy and the regular...both incredibly good. The rack of ribs was cut up- and was...plentiful. So much food. Beans were not your typical pork-n-beans, all over sweetened...they had ground beef in them, as well as pork and were more of a texas style chili bean flavor...not candy sweet. The coleslaw, likewise, was delicious, and not sweeetened, which I've grown tired of. I have found a new *local* barbecue joint- and this has me excited. Please go there and keep the place alive and thriving. I hope they keep it up. Don't sell out Fat Pig. :) So- happy birthday to me, and THANK YOU FAT PIG! read more

Came here with my buddy seeking, well some BBQ. He found out about it as it's near where he lives. Not having BBQ in some time, I was ready. We strolled in on a Saturday afternoon. I got the full rack of ribs, and he got the Pulled pork BBQ meal which comes with coleslaw, roll and baked beans. It was about a 20-minute wait so which it was being made we went to pick up some pints to enjoy along with the food. We got takeout to take back to his spot. The ribs were solid. Had extra sauce at my request. Tender and meaty but lacked a bit on the smoky smell and flavor. Good overall. The Pulled pork meal was tender and sauced nicely as well. I'd say it's a decent price at $27 for the rack and $15 for his meal. I'd return here for sure as solid BBQ places aren't in abundance that I've seen so far, so thumbs up on this one. read more

Ribs were out of this world. Cornbread too. Small place but food is amazing. Parking is great and service is great. What a find!!!

My boyfriend and I came in two days ago and LOVED the pulled pork sandwich and full rack of ribs we got, if I could give this place more than five stars I would. The man running the shop was so kind and he had our order ready right when we walked in! Pretty quiet inside the shop but they deserve more business!! read more

Fat Pig BBQ - Pulled Pork Sandwich (Double Meat) - Barbeque Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

See all

When you're paying that much for barbecued ribs you shouldn't have to cut the meat off the bone with a knife. The cornbread is a joke. You can't even pick it up without it completely disintegrating. I would highly recommend you take the 10 minutes to drive to 196 th and go to moonshine BBQ. I have no interest whatsoever in that restaurant. It just so happens though when you buy ribs there you can actually pull the meat off the bone. Let me restate that you can shake it and then meat falls off the bone. This isn't a one-off. I've been on somewhat of a barbecued rib pilgrimage of late through the Snohomish and King county area. The fat pig is s***. Honestly you're far better off at Dickies. Don't get sucked into the little weird strip mall independent vibe. They are serving the absolute cheapest of ribs, cooks not very well. At a premium price. read more

A pulled pork sandwich for $6 in 2026? Impossible? Wrong. Fat Pig makes it happen. Hole in the wall hidden in a part of Edmonds (Perrinville) that is likely only familiar to locals. Just the classics on this menu which is just the way I like it. Stick to what you do best! read more

The ribs are great and flavorful. The pulled pork is good but needs that extra bbq sauce to fully have the flavor and without the bread so it's not soggy by the time we got home. Cornbread had chunks of corn but needed something more. Biggest issue is selection of options. Once you know how to order the few things it's fine, but was hoping for some more variety read more

Service was fine. Overpriced. Food was bad. Ribs were plain. Cornbread was ... not made correctly and was wet and gross. Does not seem to be American BBQ. read more

A friend recommended Fat Pig. I had never heard of it. Im glad i went. They have the best ribs, beans and cornbread! Everything had incredible flavor. The ribs were seasoned and smoked perfectly. I think they out sweet corn in the huge piece of cornbread which is a really nice touch. The baked beans and bacon had really good seasoning too. I was really blown away by it all. I highly recommend the Fat Pig! read more

Always enjoy the ribs, chicken and pulled pork. Often double my order and vac pak the extras at home for those nights I don't want to go out. The owner and his crew take great care of everyone. read more

I loved it, huge portions of side dishes. The ribs were awesome. I will go back for more. Respect

Things that this restaurant does well: the ribs, specifically the char on the ribs. I think they excel in chicken/ribs as they are strongest menu items. Portion wise, they are good, and the flavor was well executed. Not the best I've ever had, but definitely meets your barbecue craving. This restaurant can work on a more friendly and clean bathroom, more availability of sauces to share in between tables, and a bit more attention to Customer Service. Nothing was incredibly wrong, but nothing was incredibly impressive. read more

We traveled 45 min to try this place and it did not disappoint! The food was very good. We all had the large rib plate, ribs fell off the bone, the bbq sauce tasted homemade, coleslaw was perfect flavor and not drenched in watery mayo, beans and corn all delicious. What made it extra good though was the service! Very nice man behind the counter who I think was the owner. We were celebrating Veterans Day with our son who served and we mentioned that and the owner was so nice he offered him a free drink! Super recommended! Wish we were closer, we would go here all the time! read more

Fat Pig BBQ - Large rib plate. - Barbeque Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

I drove out of my way to get barbecue I was craving it. I read good reviews so went. Got rack of ribs abd a chicken $40 but the chicken was red inside odd taste and ribs were tough and not best flavor. I was disappointed went inside told the guy at the counter he said can't help you. Wow I'm shocked we thew it in the trash and just disappointed we spent the time and money abd they didn't care! I emailed the store to let them know how unhappy and how the guy made me feel about everything and they have not reached out. I was hoping they stand by the food mostly now when prices are so high and money os so tight for people but NOTHING read more

Fat Pig has pretty good BBQ pork ribs for the PNW. I visited after a long day with no lunch so I was just shy of hangry, and - spoiler - I cleaned my plate. I had the large rib platter, 4 ribs with a 1/2 ear corn, coleslaw, beans and a roll. The side are pre-set for the meals, no choice. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone soft, 10/10 for tenderness, but not a lot of flavor. All the flavor comes from the BBQ sauce, which had a "standard food service" bottled quality. No personality. And no other sauce choices that I noticed. The beans and coleslaw were decent (I finished them) but not craveable. The corn was delicious. I didn't taste the roll (I'm gluten free) but it looked like a store bought package roll. No unsweetened ice tea available, which almost had me walking out. I've never eaten BBQ without iced tea. Didn't expect that. They do have bottled sweet tea (Arizona) but that's not my jam. The place is small but cute, in a neighborhood strip mall about 10 minutes from downtown Edmonds. I was the only dine-in on a weeknight, all the other traffic was pickups. And there's no shelter from the cold when the door opens and closes - I'd suggest screening off the dining section for comfort in winter if you want dine-in guests. I drove out of my way based on other reviews when I found myself in Edmonds at mealtime. I wouldn't drive all the way out here to eat again, but if I lived nearby I'd order for pickup occasionally. read more

I tried the food at Fat Pig BBQ and it was excellent! I loved their cornbread. I will be back soon!

We ordered take out: full rack of ribs, a side of cole slaw, and a side of baked beans. Surprise! There is truth in advertising! The ribs are meaty and tasty. are so tender. The barbecue sauce, delicious. The side portions are generous and tasty as well. This meal was split between two adults with leftovers. Not only is food fair priced but is also the best value for barbecue in the greater Seattle area. read more

My favorite BBQ spot; Fat BBQ chicken is soooo good. I asked the owner to add Fat Pig fries but no answer. The BBQ pork sandwiches with Cole slaw my favorite. I travel 10 miles to get this great food. read more

I feel like when this place opened they may have made everything from scratch. But we tried them for the first time today, and I can tell you I'm sure most of the items are from Costco. I don't even know if the meat was done in-house or purchased pre-cooked and warmed up. I know for a fact the beans and the potato salad are from Costco, as we watched them empty their car while leaving with our food. They had huge cans of baked beans, and the tubs of potato salad. The rolls were definitely from Costco. The food was just "warm". I was watching as the young lady was "cooking" our food. She pulled chicken out of a tray, and then I heard a microwave startup. Then she pulled ribs out of a tray and flipped them back and forth on a grill for a couple minutes while smothering them with bottled BBQ sauce. I get if you make the food earlier in the day and have to reheat it, but it wasn't really reheated. The corn on the cob was mushy and cold. The roll was mushy. I assume the coleslaw was also from Costco. No seasoning at all on anything, especially the ribs and chicken. Smothering it in BBQ sauce is NOT seasoning. All in all very disappointing. Waste of money. Not what I expected from a "home town" bbq establishment. I could have picked up all that myself from Costco for much cheaper. read more

Great chicken and ribs! The owner is very friendly, and the food came out quickly! Will definitely come back

This food is damn good. They're always friendly here and we've always been happy when we order from here. I highly recommend this place. I've lived in many states, ate at many bbq places, this one is just consistently good. read more

We were looking for a place to get some BBQ while we were in town and settled on Fat Pig BBQ. It's located next door to a convenient store, Star Mini Mart & Deli. We dropped in on a Thursday (around 6:15pm) for an early dinner. You order and pay first at the counter. Nice touch that they offer to bring your order out to your vehicle if you get takeout. The owner was friendly and came over to chat with us when there was a break in customers. The menu is small with 20 items (meals and sides). Meat options consist of ribs, chicken and pulled pork. The ribs seem to be the most popular. There's two bottles of sauce (spicy and mild) by the utensils. Spicy one was solid. - Cornbread ($3.50 US) - this was a massive portion of cornbread with a slab of butter dolloped on top. Really liked how there was bits of corn mixed in, which added a pleasant texture. - Ribs & chicken combo ($13.25 US large) - two ribs, one thigh, roll, coleslaw, baked beans and half a corn on the cob. The ribs were tender and flavourful; my favourite out of everything we tried. The chicken thigh won't blow you away but it was good enough. The coleslaw was standard but the baked beans were done well and the corn was fresh. Would have liked a full corn but c'est la vie. - Pulled pork sandwich ($6.75 US) - went with the double meat option as it's only $1.50 USD extra. The pulled pork was decent but a touch on the dry side. They also really slather on the sauce; a little too much in my opinion. However, the bun was nicely grilled. Fat Pig BBQ was a nice find. A no frills, slightly hole in the wall type of vibe. I'd get more ribs next time. 3.5 stars. read more

Checked out Fat Pig BBQ for the family. First the good, Service was friendly, accurate, and quick. It's generally take out (not a lot of seating) so the ambiance is limited but appropriate for a BBQ joint. We ordered a full rack of ribs, pulled pork sandwich, cornbread, and a few other things. The pulled pork sandwich was decent. I'd skip the cornbread (it was a bit dry). The ribs were a big disappointment unfortunately - not a lot of flavor and a bit chewy. Sort of ruined our lunch. read more

Actually, 3.5 stars. This is a tiny hole-in-the-wall BBQ place, obviously struggling to get by. The owner / cook was friendly and my pulled pork sandwich was ready in 3 or 4 minutes, and delivered to my car out front. The slaw was fine, the pulled pork and sauce was fine but nothing special (there was less meat in the sandwich than I would have expected). The bun was toasted on the grill and fairly good. It was a good value. I hate to see this kind of mom & pop business struggling, so they are worthy of support and patronage. The sandwich was inexpensive ($5.25) but the fees (for a bag, for city tax, for credit card) were a bit annoying. It was a messy sandwich, as you might expect -- getting a napkin or two would also have been a good thing. So, I feel for them as a small business, but I was also a bit underwhelmed. I'd probably give them more business just to support such a small business, but not because the BBQ was wonderful. read more

Fat Pig BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Best Ribs in Seattle. I've been to a lot of other BBQ places in Seattle that described their ribs as "fall off the bone tender" and this is the first place that delivered on tender ribs. That along with balanced smoke made these the Ribs I will rave about. if you need a comparison to a region of BBQ I think they're closest to a Kansas City style of BBQ. I've been a couple times since first going this month and the service has been quick and friendly. If you've seen this place and haven't been then you're missing out. read more

We called our order in ahead and took our food to go. It was ready within 15-20mins. Good customer service. Friendly guy - I think it was the owner. There's some indoor seating if you prefer to eat the food there. The food was good. Prices are standard. I'd say it's comparable to other standard BBQ places around here. read more

I love this place for a quick bbq pick up! The owner is super nice and friendly. The half rack of ribs are perfectly tender with just the right amount of sauce and flavor. I've also had their chicken thighs and honestly have never had more tender chicken! Ordering from here is always super quick and food is ready within 10-15 minutes. The food is packaged well and stays warm for awhile if you're picking up from far away. Definitely a must try if you're in the area! read more

I LIVE this place! The ribs are fantastic, but even if they weren't, I'd probably love everything about The Fat Pig, because the owner, Bao, is one of the most delightful persons I've known. My hubs loves the pulled pork sandwich and the beans. The cornbread is off-the-charts - though I cannot eat it because I don't do well with whole corn - but 20 years ago, I'd have been raving about it. Thank you, Bao, for needing more to keep you occupied in retirement and opening this great little place. read more
