Like another poster, I'm a southerner by birth (Georgia). I've eaten at the 3 Pigs since I moved to the Seattle-area in 1989 ....and I was introduced to the restaurant by a college friend from Virginia. My preference is the pulled pork sandwich. Lots of tender meat, sauce that tantalizes and tingles and sings on your tongue. NOT sauce that... more

I am from the Southeast and have tried every bbq joint around here. 3 Pigs is as good as it gets out here. Consistently good quality food. The Brusnwick stew is better than my mom's and the ribs are as moist as any I've ever eaten. Nothing better than the pulled pork sandwich and a cup of Wolfsbreath chili to... more

Nasty atmosphere and the food wasn't very good. You're better off at Dixie's. more

This is the place we go to get take-out barbecue. I recommend the medium sauce, or mild. The hot sauce is really not that hot and it doesn't deliver the taste that the milder sauce does. We used to eat at Love's when they were in Lynnwood, and were happy to find 3 Pigs in Bellevue (much closer). Since we... more

I came to 3 Pigs with high hopes. I'd read about it. But I was disappointed. I ordered the beef brisket with "hot" barbecue sauce. It was horrible. The brisket was OK. Not as tender as I would like, but OK. The problem was the sauce. I ordered the hottest sauce 3 Pigs offered, and it was cloyingly sweet. To... more
