West Brothers Barbecue, Eugene, OR P350
 
From the story I was told, the "West Brothers" have traveled the United States, sampling barbecue "all over the 'barbecue belt'"...they display pictures from North Carolina, Arkansas, Texas, etc...all of "barbecue joints".  But what does this have to do with their food?  Nothing much. 

I've eaten there several times and have enjoyed the food each time.  Unfortunately, there's nothing spectacular, but it's all good barbecue, well prepared and tasty. 

Their "hot sauce" is tamed down for the masses.  Their "normal" sauce is OK...as is their "sweet sauce". 

I tend to opt for the "sampler", giving me three different meats and two side dishes for $13.95.  I've never tried the salmon, though it looks fine and various companions have proclaimed it to be excellent...just doesn't seem to fit with the decor. 

The "pork shoulder" is good...as is the brisket.  The "baby back ribs" tend to be a little bit on the fat side, but they're tasty.

The barbecued beans with meat REALLY has a lot of meat and they're excellent!
