Our Story
We Built This Around the Smoker
Goodwood Barbeque Company wasn't started to fill a gap in Boise's restaurant scene. It was started because a group of locals were tired of compromising — tired of dry brisket, tired of sauce masking flavor, tired of restaurants that treat BBQ like a theme rather than a craft.
We opened our doors in West Boise with a simple rule: if it doesn't come out of a smoker, it doesn't go on the menu. Everything is planned around the pit. We buy the whole packs. We trim them ourselves. We wait the time it takes.
That discipline shows up on every plate. It's why people drive through Boise just to eat here. It's why our regulars know what day we pull the brisket and show up early.
Whole Packs, Not Portions
We buy whole brisket packs and pull hogs shoulder by shoulder. No shortcuts, no pre-sliced shortcuts.
Time Is the Only Secret
Our rubs are simple. Our smoke is real. The hours are non-negotiable. That's it.
Boise Born, Boise Based
We're not a franchise. We're not expanding because we'd rather keep doing this right in one place, with the people who show up.
