Pig in a Pickle BBQ

  3.9 – 138 reviews   • Barbecue restaurant

Pig in a Pickle BBQ specializes in slow cooked meats using only white oak. All of our meats come from family owned sustainable ranches. No antibiotics or hormones are given to any animals we sell. You order directly from the meat cutter, they cut your meat and weigh it in front of you. You can order any amount you want. We aim to cook enough meat to sell out of our main meats daily. We try to make sure we have enough for our posted hours but on occasion we will sellout earlier. This ensures that you are getting high quality fresh meat cooked daily in our smokers. While we do not take phone orders we do have a phone number to call so you can find out if we have sold out of your favorite meats before heading over. Thanks Pig

Brisket from Pig in the Pickle (Emeryville) : r/OaklandFood – Reddit

I love pig in the pickle. I find most bbq too salty and this was so good and tender. Love their sauces too.

First time trying Pig in a Pickle BBQ, and it did not disappoint! We ordered the beef brisket, baby back ribs, mac ‘n’ cheese, and coleslaw, and everything was excellent!

The beef brisket was unbelievably tender and juicy, with a perfect smokiness from the California White Oak. The flavor of the meat was so rich and delicious that it didn’t even need any sauce. The baby back ribs were equally impressive, falling off the bone with every bite. The mac ‘n’ cheese was creamy, and the coleslaw was a refreshing complement to the meats.

Without a doubt, this is the best BBQ I’ve had in 2024!

As an amateur bbq/smoking guy, how does this place have a 3.9? I almost didn’t order based on the google reviews but something told me to give it a try. I ordered the brisket as well as hot links and both were fantastic.

I’ve been doing briskets myself and while they are fantastic, it’s a ton of work and candidly, I think this place taste better. The only thing I will say is the brisket was not strongly seasoned and I can see folks in that area wanting salty but the smoke was perfect.

Definitely coming back here again to try the other offerings.

Delightful flavors danced on our taste buds, exceeding our expectations with every bite. The hot links proved to be a symphony of tastiness, and thanks to the insightful recommendations from the cheerful staff, the mustard sauce added the perfect zing to the experience.

The beef brisket, a true star on the menu, was a mouthwatering delight. Tender, succulent meat paired seamlessly with the mild sauce, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. The cornbread, subtly sweet, provided the ideal accompaniment, enhancing the overall culinary journey. The potato salad, a flavorful addition, was undeniably a big plus, leaving us savoring every moment.

Not only did the food shine, but the gentlemen taking orders and crafting our culinary masterpiece were beacons of niceness and helpfulness. Their stellar customer service elevated the entire dining experience, making it one of the best I’ve had in a while. A heartfelt thank you for a meal that not only filled our stomachs but also warmed our hearts. Cheers to exceptional flavors and top-notch service!

Best BBQ in the bay, hands down. Brisket is better than anywhere else, ribs are delicious, and you got to try their potato salad.

On the price your side but completely worth it… It is Some of the best barbecue brisket I’ve had in the bay the meat so soft and melt-in-your-mouth go with the hot BBQ sauce to complete the flavor profile it is worth every cent. The mac and cheese is really good but for the best side go with the cornbread and the potato salad. They might recommend the third town but go with at least half a pound it is that good you’ll want more.

I decided to try this place for lunch today because I hvnt been but got confused with the menu. I saw people having bbq sandwiches but it was not on their menu. I decided to ask the service person about the sandwiches and he said I can order any amount of meat and they can put it between a bun.

I ended up ordering half a pound of brisket ($15), a hot link ($8), a small potato salad ($3.5) and cornbread ($3) with a side of mild bbq sauce… with tax & tip, roughly $35. So not cheap but I did order a few things.

Let me just say, both the brisket (fatty – my preference, not lean) and hot link were delicious! I wished I ordered more because my husband ate most of it (he was waiting on his burger & fries from another place ). The sauce was tasty as well as the potato salad! The cornbread was plentiful n served with some honey butter.

I would definitely order from them again. SO glad, I have another fav place I can go to, to get something to eat here at the Emeryville Public Market.

I wanted to like this place, but it does have it’s flaws. First they sell their meat by the pound, but it ended up $2.00 more than avertised price. The ribs were dry and sold at room temperature. The sides were just warmer then room temperature.The sauce was just okay. I assume you must take your food home to heat it up yourself.
In conclusion: The food was okay but nothing great.

Hotlink was amazing! Well worth the $10. Loved the spice and smokiness. Fatty parts of the fatty brisket were pretty good. Sauces paired well with the BBQ and other foods nearby. Will try some pigs and pickles next time.

Order ribs, macaroni cheese, and collad green. The only thing eatable was the macaroni. The ribs were cold, the sauce was watered down. Very dissatisfied with the meal for $55. First time and definitely last time eating here. Save your money bbq at home.

Ordered take out and didnt leave a tip. He left the bag on the counter, didn’t say a word and walked away after the transaction was processed. I was the only customer and no one else was waiting. I reached in to grab the bag and go. Hot link was good, but I would expect a bit more flavor on the brisket.
