Turnagain Arm Pit BBQ

[MrSkimo]

Hi Strat - nice to meet you. A side effect (and I imagine this applies to all good BBQ joints) is that it is one of the fastest places in town to get served. Since they slow cook all their meats, it's almost always ready when you arrive. Constant turnover.

I do love to cook outside. Even at -25, I still enjoy it. Always makes me feel a little hard core when I'm cooking in a blizzard and reading about people cooking outside at 90 degrees. :-)

Dear Mr. Skimo,
I live in the Valley,so I haven't had the chance to check out Turnagain Arm Pit BBQ. The next time I'm in town I'll give 'em a try. Sometimes, I feel the need to eat someone else's cooking, for a change...lol
It is cool to know someone in my home state loves"the pit" as much as I.

Thanks for the review MrSkimo, and welcome to The Pit! Not positive, but I think you may be our first active member in Alaska. Either way, thanks for the support!

Since this is your first post, I want to direct you to read our new member 'welcome package'. I prefer this term instead of the older one which was 'homework assignment'. In that post you'll find all of the how-tos and please-dos that we like our members to get out of the way early.

Look forward to more interaction with you!

Great little barbecue pit restaurant. They started up with a trailer based place on the Seward Highway near Indian (south of Anchorage). They opened up a new location in Anchorage. Fantastic pork and brisket.
