Pure Smoke BBQ NW — Restaurant in Stanwood

Ok so I’m the pickiest person on earth. Hubby and I have never enjoyed BBQ on any real basis. We will eat if stuck at a wedding or a bbq but to go buy it and eat….well maybe if starving or a trusted foodie recommends a place. So We stopped in here a few months ago and have ordered and returned so many times. First the folks who work here are wonderful. Their BBQ can’t be beat. Brisket and Mac n cheese yes please. My favorite . Hubbys favorite is brisket and pork belly and his side is always the collard greens .Save yourself the agony of choosing . They have a two meats and two sides. Perfect for you alone with possibility of left overs as a large dinner. Hubby and I will split it for a lunch. And their only on Sunday morning breakfast burrito is outstanding. Like drive 50 miles for the darn thing outstanding. You can order on line. They currently are open Friday Saturday and Sunday one can only wish they open 7...

Absolutely incredible. We picked up a large order to-go for a birthday celebration (brisket, racks of ribs, pulled pork, baked beans, cornbread and slaw) and I can confidently say that it's the best BBQ I've ever had. The brisket could fall apart in a slight breeze. The ribs would fall off the bone if you LOOKED at it hard enough. And even after leaving it out for hours, the cornbread was still moist and flavorful. If you live in the Stanwood-Cameno area, you would be out of your mind to not try this...

Don't miss out on this place. Brisket was juicy, tender and flavorful. Cannot believe there are others saying it was dry. Best brisket, or meat in general that I've ever had anywhere. Mac and cheese was divine, with a smoky flavor. It was all well worth the price for what you're getting. Good cow. The owner was very kind, even though we came right before closing. I would add a photo, but we scarfed it all down too quickly. Check their Instagram for their hours...
