Hole In the Wall BBQ
Hole in the Wall BBQ is a Pioneer Square institution founded in 1989 by two-time Washington State Barbecue champion Chuck Forsyth, who built the menu around meats slow-smoked for 16 hours and a house-made Bullwhacker BBQ sauce available in mild, medium, and hot. The downtown Seattle lunch spot is celebrated for its Carolina-style pulled pork, brisket, and the award-winning Chuck's Railroad Chili that earned trophies on the competitive cook-off circuit before the restaurant opened. Now run by the Forsyth family, Hole in the Wall has served the city's working lunch crowd on weekdays for over three decades.
