If you’re anything like us, nothing gets your mouth watering quite like the smell of meat being slow-roasted over a firepit. The smoky flavors you get from authentic barbecue really can’t be beaten, and we’ve got some great examples of this cooking style right here in our town. Take a look below to see our picks for the very best spots to grab your ‘cue right here in Martinsburg, WV.

1. Oakwood BBQ

Everything they cook at Oakwood is done low and slow over a wood-burning oven to give each bite that savory flavor full of natural juices that you crave. They also have some unique sides to offer up alongside your main course, like their spicy wasabi slaw. When it comes time for your main course, there’s not much better than the birria tacos they serve up with your choice of meat.

2. Gardner’s BBQ and Catering

If you want to make your next event one to remember, have Gardner’s cater it with some delicious homestyle BBQ. Apart from those special occasions, their food truck is always worth a visit. The homemade sauces they flavor their meats with gives them a taste that is all their own. The five different types of wood they use to smoke their meats also each give their own individual character to the final product.

3. Gus’ BBQ

All the meat served up at this spot is smoked fresh on site, and you can definitely taste the difference that makes. The sour taste of the breaded and deep-fried pickles makes the perfect start to your meal here. You really can’t go wrong with any of their main course options, but a special shout-out has to go to the brisket plate. The melt-in-your-mouth texture of the meat will surely make your meal a memorable one.

4. Mountaineer Meat Smokers

The owner of Mountaineer set out to bring the flavors of true Texas BBQ to our area. They’ve definitely succeeded in that mission, as an order of their half or full rack of ribs would be enough to tell you. Their smoked chicken salad is also worth a try. One unique snack they serve up here is their homemade popcorn, available in five different flavors each with its own special taste.

5. Logan’s Roadhouse

Logan’s believes that there are no strangers at a roadhouse, only friends. You’ll sure feel like an old friend with the welcoming service you get when you sit down for a meal here. The boneless pork chops are a sensational meal, with a juicy and tender flavor in every bite. Save room for a slice of their Margarita Cheesecake for a sweet dessert that will really round off the meal.

You’re sure to walk away with a smile on your face after enjoying the ‘cue from any of these spots. We aim for that same level of customer satisfaction when you walk off our lot. Stop in at Opequon Motors and we’ll leave you smiling!
