About this business
If it takes restaurant owner, Rodney Muirhead to wake up at 5a to get the fire pit going, you know the meat at Podnah's Pit is going to be good. Smoking nearly 200 pounds of meat in a Texas style barbecue every single day, he ensures only the juiciest, most tender cuts cooked to absolute perfection reach your plate. Another hard to resist item on the menu are the California styled pulled pork sandwiches claimed to be one of Portland's best. If you can't wait till lunch, then come for Podnah's weekend breakfasts that includes... read more

Brisket. It's an experience best tasted not described. Always get the mac & cheese when it's offered. Beer and BBQ are a natural match, but Podnah's drinks are worthy. Pitboss plate should be featured on one of those eat til it hurts shows on basic cable. I split with a friend and was nearly paralyzed from the caloric intake (but it was so good, I couldn't stop)
Just go!
Best BBQ in Portland!!! One of the breakfasts as well. While it's way out of the way, the food, drinks, and service is worth it. Keep up the good work.
Great barbeque but they have moved – This address is incorrect, and as of June 24, there was no sign outside Podnah's. The new address is 1625 NE Killingsworth, and we coulodn't find a parking lot nor a surly staff. No wait on a Friday afternoon. Brisket and pork ribs were great, but they had run out of ruby trout. Sides were good but a little too much vinegar on everything for one of our group. We are anxious to sample the smoked prime rib. Don't rush past the blackboard -- the specials are there.
Solid, But Unspectacular – I'll admit, I'm tough to please when it comes to BBQ. I tried Podnah's Pit on a rainy Tuesday night. It was surprisingly crowded. It took 20 minutes to be seated, but since I'd had plenty of time to study the menu, the food came lightning quick. They had a special of $20 for a full rack of ribs. I certainly got my money's worth. These were big and meaty spare ribs. They had plenty of smoky flavor, but were otherwise bland, and would have benefited from a spicy rub. I really disliked the highly vine... read more
Totally UN-impressed! – I enjoy going out for a truly good meal. And although I've cut back on eating out over the last year, for economic reasons...Enjoying good food out with friends at least twice a month is about a infrequent as I'm willing to cut it. I also like to visit a restaurant at least twice, to compare the dishes and service and possibly give the establishment a 'second chance' if my first visit didn't score high in my book. Here enters Podnah's BBQ Podnah's BBQ had been open for about 8 months when I went for t... read more
Blasphemous Rumor – Had dinner with the family at Podnah's on 8-21-2010 and them having "great Texas BBQ" is a blasphemous rumor. I have lived in TX and St. Louis and I feel I have a good idea of what good BBQ should taste like and this establishment falls short. I was not impressed by the service we received. It was unprofessional and inconsistent. There were six of us and the menu states" Free bread, Jalapeno's and onions". Anyone who has eaten BBQ in Texas knows that white bread is a must when eating BBQ. We order a half ... read more
Best Brisket in Portland. – Discovered this place by accident; we were driving by and just happened to noticed their sign. We had heard about it from friends and Triple D, but had not been there yet. We turned the car around and decided to stop in for lunch. We were able to sit outside in the sun on one of their two patio tables. They only offer two starters, two sandwiches and four baskets for lunch. But you will not be disappointed. We tried the trout and beef brisket sandwich. The portion on the beef was very generous and... read more
Very poor service--will not return though food is great. – As a native Texan I was excited the first time I came here a few years ago and found they had some of the best TX-style BBQ I've found here in PDX. And I miss the migas I used to get in houston, so was happy when they started doing their breakfast. BUT--I went in with my kids (9 & 16) a few weeks ago for breakfast (craving those Migas, I specifically asked if they had bell peppers and was told no, and retstated I did not care for bell peppers. Well guess what was in ... read more
