Blind Raven BBQ & Catering

The Best Barbecue in Seattle | Eater Seattle

"Owned by a pair of DJs (nightclub kind, not radio kind), Blind Raven BBQ took over the Pig Iron Burger Shack space next to Slim’s in 2024. The menu begins with traditional classics like brisket, pulled pork, and hot links and then gets interesting, with items like garlic-crusted barbecue pork ribs, smoked mac and cheese, and raven’s eggs — those are bacon-wrapped jalepenos stuffed with cream cheese and brisket. The bones slide easily out of the ribs, like so many toothpicks in hors d’oeuvres, leaving little garlicky nuggets of tender roast pork for you to savor. On weekends, there are EDM events on weekends in the large parking lot around back (and parking too)." - Meg van Huygen
