Reader Survey 2015: Best Barbecue in Portland

April 20, 2015 by PDX Food Dude Leave a Comment

Podnah's Plate

The first place winner for Best Barbecue in Portland is always the same. However, Smokehouse 21 (now expanded to Smokehouse Tavern) is continuing to pick up votes, rising from 6% in 2013. More interesting, is that Podnah’s huge share has dropped – it received a whopping 72% of the vote in the last survey, but has now dropped to 46%. This is still a huge lead, but it looks like other restaurants such as People’s Pig have started to eat away at their margins.

1300 of you piggishly voted:

1. Podnah’s Pit BBQ – 46% of the vote. If you haven’t been, you are in the minority.
