Let the racks of wood tell you that Federalist Pig takes their smoke seriously. With the family of four meal we had a tour that included brisket, pulled pork shoulder, smoked turkey breast and the smoked chicken. For sides we have the smoked Mac and cheese, Brussels sprouts, bbq beans, and red potato salad. It was a great spread of what they do best. Very good brisket and we choose wet. A serious bbq place that asks you how you like your meat. Some serious sides and a stand out was the bbq beans. Staff worked fast a... read more

This is my favorite/ go to restaurant in Adams Morgan. We live in the neighborhood and have trouble finding options that don't end up being overly expensive if you want a filling meal. This place is great because you get great portions, delicious food (as much sauce as you want!), and good deals. If you're looking for the best bang for your buck get the 1/2 shredded pork shoulder by itself for ~$13 (such a good deal for this area!). If you want sides/ some of the more expensive meat go with getting one of the combo meals - ... read more

Absolutely loved this BBQ spot! The brisket was tender, smoky, and full of flavor. Ribs fell right off the bone, and the pulled pork was juicy and perfectly seasoned. The sides were just as impressive--especially the mac and cheese and baked beans. Staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home. Clean environment with a cozy, laid-back vibe. Prices were fair for the quality and portions. I'll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend if you're craving real, delicious BBQ!

So good! The guys running the place were so nice. The beer was delicious and cold. We brought 3 kids and they all loved it. The oxtail empanadas were one of the greatest things we've ever tasted.

Amazing place for meat! Great value. We got dinner for two and it was too much but everything was killer good. Wait staff was super helpful and friendly. The pork bellies were the best. The brussel sprouts were perfection. Not much atmosphere and it was not well heated. Also there was nothing ti mark the front door. We thought it was closed! You guys should get a glass front door. Yummy

The place is WORTH the hype. Pretty affordable (under $40 for dinner for 2) and by my Texas standards, the BBQ is worth it! We got a platter of the brisket (chopped) and ribs and a pulled pork sandwich. The pulled pork was smoky and didn't necessarily need sauce, but I couldn't resist - the sticky garlic sauce is a must try. The chopped brisket was a little underwhelming and the ribs were definitely very fatty - maybe more so than I would prefer. The dining area is fine - nothing too impressive. You come here for the foo... read more

Ugh I love Federalist Pig. What's not to love? Smokey meats, flavorful sides, and tasty desserts! We ended up trying a whole bunch of items so that we could taste the menu. To be fair though, the menu is HUGE so we only hit a dent in it (aka: we get to come back). We did the four meats and four sides option and ordered the chopped brisket (they ran out of sliced, but this was the highlight of the platter in my opinion), the pork rib tips, pulled pork, and pork belly. We also got the jimmy muscles chicken sandwich. For side... read more
