Portland, Maine: Salvage BBQ
Salvage BBQ is situated in a renovated former postal service building, offering primarily Texas brisket and North Carolina chopped pork alongside smoked brisket, chicken, and sausages. The St. Louis ribs receive meticulous preparation over red oak, a wood sourced exclusively from Maine, showcasing a level of personalization that sets it apart.

The pork butts are served with a fiery yet delightful peppery vinegar sauce. For meat enthusiasts who enjoy their dishes especially spicy and saucy, there’s an extra vinegar sauce and a light tomato-based sauce available. To complement the meal, the establishment provides a variety of locally-made beverages.
