In Short
A brightly-painted mural of an adobe street scene dominates one wall of this colorful Ballard spot, where families sit at funky antique tables savoring the signature 14-hour smoked brisket, pork and chicken. Hot and cold… Read Full Editorial
Good comfort food - by lars5 via Citysearch on 4/23/2009
BBQ in Ballard ... it's about the only place in Ballard to get real BBQ, and I mean smoked BBQ and not that baked/boiled slab of meat you get at restaurants or dinners like Applebee.
No two days will you find the taste to be exactly the…
Bad Food, High Prices & No Heat! by carborgast via Citysearch on 2/2/2009
Met up with a party of 6 for some Saturday BBQ at Pete's On Jan. 31, 2009 and it couldn't have been more disappointing. The food was overpriced, bland, cold and the sullen, sour-faced employees (except for the kind female server) couldn't…
Not Impressed by foodlvr84 via Citysearch on 5/31/2008
After reading the reviews here, I was excited to try Smokin Pete's. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. The briskets were very tough and sliced a bit too thick. The ribs were bland and overall, everything was way too greasy. I haven't…
Best BBQ hands down by floundersnapple via Citysearch on 12/9/2007
These guys get bbq...their brisket is the best i have ever had. The mac & cheese is unbelievable too. The place has a cool casual and relaxed atmosphere...super friendly staff. They have music on thursday nights and the place comes…

Smokin' Pete's BBQ Rocks! by Monica M. via Judy's Book on 10/19/2007
I love Smokin' Pete's BBQ in Ballard! They have a great family combo meal if you want to try a little bit of everything and also have live music. I've been eating there for a couple years now and have not been disappointed (except for…
know I see why by blewchunks via Citysearch on 3/20/2007
After receiving word from friends not to try Pete's I had to see why. I found out. I tried the pork sandwich.\r
I ate half and threw the other half away which I will add contained a bone. It was dry and it didn't even taste like pork…
Great bbq, even for snobs! Try the hot BBQ sauce and don't miss the brisket. by seattlefanatic via Citysearch on 12/15/2006
I will start out with a hearty and sincere recommendation for Smokin Pete's. Now, I am not one of those BBQ snobs who looks for particular things. But I am still cracking up at the reviewer that slammed Pete's for "pre-cooking". What I am…
Smokin Petes BBQ by wys r. via Judy's Book on 7/31/2006
Smokin Pete's BBQ just catered a friends wedding, and it was sensational. Don't know how big your event is, or where it is, but they pulled this off with style and fabulous food. I still crave it! 1918 NW 65th, Seattle, WA 98117.…
BBQ IN BALLARD by lonniemanderson via Citysearch on 11/20/2005
I'm a huge BBQ fan, and I've tried a lot of places around town. But I must say smokin Pete's is one of my favorites. I recommend the pork ribs, with collard greens. I truly respect that Pete's serve their meats dry, meaning you can add…
I like to call it Bad-B-Que by espelund via Citysearch on 11/17/2005
This place reminds me of a grocery store deli. You have to get your own utensils and bus you own table (I wouldn't have left a tip had I known this was the case). Also, all the food is pre-cooked and sitting in a heated display case. …
BBQ IN BALLARD????? YES! by mary ann j. via Judy's Book on 10/14/2005
Hard to find good BBQ north of the Fremont Bridge but Smokin' Pete's is definitely worth a try if you're a BBQ guy! They have a nice menu including chicken, several types of links, ribs (pork and beef) and brisket. My fave is the…
Smokin' Pete's BBQ by Forrest W. via Judy's Book on 8/16/2005
Smokin’ Pete’s stands out as a neighborhood joint that has, at some point, actually paid attention to the art of smoking. Smoked to a perfect fat-mostly-rendered tenderness and happily moist, the meat is served dry (free of sauce) so that…
Best kept BBQ secret! by christine gaffney via Citysearch on 11/21/2004
This place is awesome and still somewhat undiscovered - except to Ballardites. Their slow joe pork sandwich is to die for, and their brisket is as good or better than I've had in Texas.
Smoked chicken is really good too, but you can only…
