It really depends:
Jack's BBQ is about best for Brisket. They do good ribs. It's Central Texas style. Aaron Franklin even made a comment that Seattle now actually has some decent BBQ after having Jack's. Suggest chili for the side - It's very good. Mac & cheese is not my fave. Cole slaw is good, but off beaten path compared to others. Texas Caviar is good, but not my normal thing. Ribs are fairly decent and Tue nights is beef ribs. Portion / price is appropriate for good BBQ.
Pecos Pit across from Starburnt's HQ has very good pulled pork, pulled beef or sliced beef sandwiches. The mild has some nice kick. The medium has some pretty good heat and spice. The hot is.... very hot. If I have a cold, I get medium. If I'm really congested, I get hot.
BBQ Pete's in Kent has some pretty decent ribs and overall BBQ choices. Different sauces. They are well loved at the Puyallup fair with their booth their. They support the BBQ competitions around. The ribs are generally people pleasing, vs competition pleasing. Meaning - They are fall off the bone tender.
Bitterroot BBQ is pretty decent. It's not really a purist BBQ and caters to NW tastes.
Bourbon & Bones for North Caroline style BBQ.
Jones BBQ has been a staple around here for a while. Some pretty decent BBQ and sauce and sides.
Pig Iron BBQ has some decent BBQ. Next door at Slim's Last Chance Chili, they do a couple nice bowls using smoked meats from Pig Iron.
Rainin' Ribs has some decent ribs.
