Recently ate here again, and I loved the food, as well as how friendly the staff was. They have a great variety of BBQ, and it's fun to sit on the patio, when it's nice.

Solid sandwiches that satisfy without being overly filling. Sausage grinder and Meatloaf Dude sandwich with Brisket and spicy BBQ sauce very delicious. Fries and mac salad both recommended sides.

I had heard good things about this place from colleagues and have been wanting to try this place. They were at the PI building today, so we decided to try them for lunch. I got the pulled pork sandwich with the spicy sauce and a side of fries. The pulled pork was delicious, melt in your mouth meat with just the right amount of bark. The fries were crisp, just a little salty for my taste. Already looking forward to getting lunch from them again, might have to try some of the other options with the hot sauce, a colleague who got the brisket liked it a lot.

Service couldnt be better here....Owners are behind the counter and you can tell they put their heart and soul into this place. Location and service are enough since i work in SODO where there is almost no place to stop for great food that offers parking. Found it myself thru YELP search today after waiting thru 2 traffic lights only to realize that merging onto 5 N was an impossibility. I loved the strong drinks and the chopped salad I ordered. I will try more BBQ items soon.

Wow! I was on my way to get something else for lunch when I passed the truck on Union Ave. I am so happy I went on a whim and decided to pick something up from here. I got the smoked beef brisket sandwich...holy meat! There were 4-5 huge slabs of brisket on my bun! I got the sweet sauce and it was just right, they knew exactly how much sauce to add. The cabbage slaw was a perfect compliment to the sweet bbq sauce and meat.

I got their pulled pork sandwich at the Olympic sculpture Park out of the back of a food truck, this food is slap you in the face delicious!!!! This is not some wussy hipster place that sells you long on food and ends up short in flavor. This is hot damn spicy and loving every mouthful that I can shove into my pie hole and go back for thirds.

I'm a bit of BBQ snob coming from Texas and my initial thoughts it to walk on by and figure the BBQ is going to be really bad. But, today my inclination was to try it and I ordered the pulled pork with the coleslaw and told them to hold the grill onions and cheese; as in Texas normally it's just pickles and maybe slaw. Also, saw the potato salad on the menu and got it and figured to skip the fries. Boy, was it good! As you've read it comes on a semi hard square roll and a generous portion of pulled pork, not chopped, yes the pulled it apart and every bite was really good with some burnt ends in the pork that added that nice crispy flavor. I definitely will be coming back to Raney Brothers again. So, so hesitate to try them as this is one of the best BBQ you can get.

They're parked at 1st & Cherry! Pioneer Square doesn't get much love when it comes to food trucks so I'm glad they pay attention to the people who work in the area. Take that SODO and Lake Union! 'T was a Tuesday and I had already eaten lunch. I went on a walk on 1st Ave and noticed a food truck parked. BBQ! I was still full from lunch though. Fortunately, the gal at the food truck window said they'd be back on Friday. True enough they were there on Friday and so was I. It's a good thing Safeco Plaza has indoor public tables because it was cold and I wasn't up for eating outdoors at Marion Court. The potato salad tasted like it was from Safeway or Fred Meyer's deli counter. It wasn't bad. It just tasted generic. As for the pulled chicken sandwich? That was something else! That sandwich was HUGE. It had a smokey sweet taste to it, as my co-worker described it. I only ate half of it. I'm glad it wasn't sloppy because I only had a couple napkins. If you've ever eaten at Mad Oven and Hole in the Wall and you want something different, then try this place out. Also, come here if you love meat because you'll get a lot of it.

Tried them at the Seattle Center's 50th anniversary of the Worlds' Fair kick off party and was not disappointed! My husband and I shared the pulled pork sandwich with fries and that was enough food for both of us for lunch. The BBQ was smokey and flavorful and came with grilled onions and slaw mixed in (we went without the cheese). You could tell that this BBQ had been smoked for a long time to get that juicy yumminess we were now tasting. I will be looking forward to the next time I find this food truck!
