Jim from Pure Smoke BBQ is passionate about slow smoking meat and side dishes on their reverse flow offset smokers with Mesquite wood, which gives the meats a mildly sweet, smoky flavor. They also believe barbeque shouldn’t be complicated – they use simple seasonings, wood, and time to flavor the food for a truly delicious experience.

Like a lot of BBQ enthusiasts, Jim started with a small electric smoker that used wood chunks. As his experience and passion grew, he thought bigger – to whole hog. In 2011, they purchased their first commercial smoker. The first thing cooked on it was a 150 pound whole hog for his Father-in-law’s 80th birthday party. After a 22 hour cook on that hog there was no going back. Pure Smoke NW BBQ has been cooking and feeding friends and family ever since!
