O.G.'s Smokehouse BBQ, Inc. — Restaurant in Olympia

It's amazing the experience that food trucks can provide compared to modern day restaurants.

OG's is some of the best barbecue you're going to find in the region. I ordered their three meat plate, which consisted of tri-tip, ribs, and smoked sausage.

While the Pacific Northwest is not known for barbecue, I think the man behind this outfit may be onto something.

His beans and potato salad are not fillers. They are real recipes, and are great sides.

Let's get to the business: the meats!

We could talk about how barbecue around the country is varied from one another. In our region, we've never been able to establish good barbecue, let alone our own signature.

But OG's may be onto something. First, they use a decent amount of sauce, but it's not smothered. And they smoke their meat that seems to reflect very specific goals.

The result is barbecue flavor that is not overly sweet, nor overly smokey. It's not overly tangy. OG doesn't rely on one type of flavor profile to make their plates.

Instead they balance their flavors and what you get is very delicate flavors that don't overpower.

I hope OG's keeps going, and they can count on me...

I knew right away this place was gonna be bomb. The man greeted me with a smile and a sample of the tri tip he was prepping (yum) I ordered the bbq chicken plate with beans and mac n cheese. A hefty amount a food for $17! Enough for 2, really. I mean it when I say every bite was phenomenal. I’ll go back...

Wow! Just got my first time order of a half slab of ribs and mac'n'cheese. Fantastic! Ribs are big, juicy, fall of the bone, sauced just right. Man'n'cheese the old fashioned way. Pay in cash and get a discount! The owner is a great guy, fun to talk to....
