I've always ordered the pulled pork sandwich. When this place opened it was fantastic. Then they changed the awesome wheat buns to smaller white. More recently they shrunk the corn bread muffins by about half. Meanwhile the price has stayed the same. I used to barely be able to finish a meal from this place and now I do so without any problem.

When I first discovered Big Boar, I thought it was pretty great. I loved that they were local, because small business is the best business. My fiancé and I originally booked them for our wedding, but I heard some terrible things about treatment of staff from former employees, and that just isn't okay to me. I received an e-mail from their catering coordinator, and she wasn't able to confirm payment, so I had to send her my copy of the receipt. We ended up canceling because there was no price lock at the time of booking, and their prices went up significantly. The quality and portion sizes have decreased significantly in the restaurant. It's obvious that customer satisfaction is not at the top of their list. As long as you hand over money, they are happy. Their pulled pork is very tasty, but its not worth all the BS the company tosses around.

A big disappointment. The cashier and some of the staff were a bit rude and the customer service was disorganized. A few other small things, such as floors so sticky that it feels as if they hadn't been mopped in weeks, the soda machine was extremely touchy and almost always caused overfills, not to mention some of the sodas were flat, and finally the graphic design was abysmal. The real deal breaker was the actual food. The barbecue was actually slightly above average but the problem was the side I was supposed to have. My side was "Texas toast" but it was just an ordinary slice of bread. Once again, a disappointment. Better off going to one of the many other barbecues around town.

BBQ was good. I had a half rack platter. The ribs were as expected. It came with two sides. Sides were Ok. Macaroni and cheese and garlic mashed potatoes. I think if they put a little more effort into the sides they could be better. Although I have always had excellent food at the west Salem location I did not have the same at the downtown location.

Don't waste your money here! Ordered brisket/pork platter for $17 - both meats together weighed only 10oz, gave us cornbread which we didn't order as side, forgot other side. No sauce. Big Boar potato had barely 2 small spoonfuls of mushy pork on it for $6. Burnt ends were ok, but again teeny portion for $11. Bake beans tasted out of a can with bbq season and onion flavor added which made them worse. Tried to contact management privately but they haven't responded yet so I'm sharing our bad experience - won't go back.
