Pork Barrel BBQ is proud to announce that
Wagshal’s, the premiere Washington D.C. butcher, market, deli and caterer now carries our award winning
Pork Barrel BBQ Sauce and
All American Spice Rub. We are very grateful and humbled that Bill, Brian and Aaron Fuchs, the owners of
Wagshals, would carry our products. We are pretty crazy about BBQ, but I can honestly say that I’ve never ‘met people so committed to unique, high quality foods as the folks at
Wagshal’s. They gave us a great tour, fed us smoked prime brisket sandwich (more on that in a future post), and sent us home with
Iberico Pork to cook (they are the only place in the United States to offer
Iberico pork). Here’s a shot of their deli managed by Brian Fuchs and his team:
Another shot of the deli:
Heath and Brian Fuchs looking at their special line of ready to eat gourmet foods:
They also have a huge catering operation, and are especially great at catering upscale weddings:
Here’s a shot inside their catering kitchen – be sure to note Bill Fuchs’ modified smoker in the corner (I was CRAZY jealous of it):
Oh, did I mention that they have some of the highest quality, unique cuts of meat in all of Washington D.C.? Here’s Heath and Aaron Fuchs with some great dry aged beef:

“@claffee Had a bbq rub taste test on the Iberico pork ribs the other night – @porkbarrelbbq beat Arthur Bryant’s and Gates in my opinion!”
For those of you who don’t follow meat – Iberico ribs just recently became available in the Washington D.C. market thanks to the amazing folks at Wagshals and Jose Andres. We did a post on heritage breeds of pigs earlier this year – so if you want to learn more about the topic, read Heath’s post here.
We are incredibly humbled that someone would compare our products to Kansas City BBQ greats like Arthur Bryant’s and Gates BBQ. We will keep working hard to deliver great BBQ at prices all Americans can afford. As two guys from Kansas City, we hope Pork Barrel BBQ’s dry rubs and sauces someday have the reputation of Arthur Bryant’s BBQ and Gates BBQ.
