Years before Pork Barrel BBQ opened its doors, its name was known far and wide for oak- and hickory-smoked barbecue sauce and spice rubs. The business began in 2008 when two former senate staffers decided to pursue their idea of bringing Missouri-style barbecue to the DMV. After winning awards at several national barbecue competitions and a successful appearance on a reality television competition, Pork Barrel teamed with local restaurateurs Mike Anderson and Bill Blackburn to open the first Pork Barrel BBQ eatery in Alexandria, just moments from The Frasier.
This casual counter-service joint with outdoor seating and a full bar is relaxed enough for a quick take-out pit stop, but charming and spacious enough for a large group meal. Standouts on the menu include the brisket sandwich, smoky pulled pork, and plenty of traditional sides, like sweet cornbread, slow-simmered collard greens, and traditional baked beans.
