    Tri tip sandwich and sides

    Fantastic Smoked BBQ - fresh, falls off the bone meat. Full of flavor and good size proportions. Must try their corn on the cob and green beans/bacon sides as well. They also carry Louisville type baby back ribs . We plan on going back next weekend just for the food! It was the only place open in the area coming back from Crater Lake area. Pricing was fair. Glad we found this gem in our outdoor adventure area.

    This place is closed and long gone according to the lodge. Don't drive out to Union Creek for the BBQ.

    It's ok. Not the worst thing I've ever eaten but definitely nothing special…read more If I were headed toward Eugene, I'd just wait an hour and eat someplace else but going east, you might wanna stop instead of waiting. The sampler came with extra pulled pork and brisket because they only make ribs on certain days apparently. Not sure what normal portions look like but this just seemed like a " normal" sized portion to me. Struck me as strange to offer a sampler plate that offers ribs as one of the three choices yet they only make ribs a couple days a week, but whatever. It is, what it is. The pork was chopped to the point of being pulverized which I actually see in alot of bbq places. I wish people would stop doing this and just hand pull the pork into larger pieces but that just my personal preference. I understand that other people like this. It is " pulled pork" after all. In my experience, when you see pulled pork that's pulverized or chopped brisket on the menu. It's usually what they do when the barbecue turned out dry and they're trying to make it sellable. The brisket here was very different than about any brisket I've ever had . Thin sliced and salty. When I say " thin sliced " I mean it. Literally like bacon thin. Pale with a kinda grey-ish look in appearance that almost looked and tasted and looked like poorly cooked bacon. It was reasonably tender but stringy because it was cut with the grain which I've never seen and is basically wrong no matter where you go. Very little smoke flavor or any flavor really other than salt. Just kinda strange for brisket but somehow edible if you're hungry and just paid 26.00 for lunch. They charge you for the bread if you want it. It's just a cold , dry , day old sandwich roll you see at the grocery store . I think it's called an outdoor roll and delicious when fresh. This one could use a little help by being warmed up slightly but sadly was not. Overall, edible I suppose and not gross but definitely not the brisket I expected. Cole slaw was dry, needed dressing. Basically shedded cabbage with a slight hint of sweetness . The potato salad was obviously bought at the grocery store. The guy serving ( probably owner) was not rude but definitely wasn't friendly either. Just kinda there to make the transaction. Nothing more, nothing less. Worth a stop if you're hungry, not terribly picky and would rather eat real food instead of some fast food burger. Just know you may walk away from this place feeling as if it never happened because it's completely forgettable ( which is both good and bad probably) The most annoying thing (and this had nothing to do with the food) was some guy in a giant diesel truck idling the whole time while he ate in his truck. The entire area was choking with diesel fumes to the point that we walked out to the parking lot 50 yards away to wait for the food. If the owner reads this, I would suggest maybe asking people not to idle their diesel trucks in front of the place where people are sitting. Just a suggestion that I think people might appreciate. Beyond that , it's the best BBQ place in town!! If you been to oak ridge, you'll understand!

    Just finish a day skiing at Williamette Pass with my daughter. Noticed this bbq place the day…read morebefore while getting my A&W float fix just next door. I got 5 ribs (pork) for $2 each. They had a nice sweet rub to it. Went with a mild sauce since my daughter isn't into spicy. Note: sauce is a little runny but tasted good. The ribs were meaty and tasted delicious.. The gentleman was very nice to my daughter and gave her a lollipop. Will be back tomorrow to try out the brisket. The town of Oakridge didn't have cell phone coverage...at least no T-mobile so if you're reading this ahead of time give this place a try.
