Holy Trinity Barbecue brought Texas-style barbecue to Portland, Oregon. The owner and chef, Kyle Rensmeyer, quickly earned a reputation as one of the best pitmasters on the entire West Coast. He served spare ribs, sausage, and, of course, Texas-style brisket. Hence, the name Holy Trinity refers to the combination of brisket, ribs, and sausage in Texas. However, pretty much everything on the menu here was worth a try.
When he first started, Kyle didn't have any experience in the restaurant business and said he simply wanted to bring his barbecue to Portland, and we'd say that he succeeded.
