Apple Valley BBQ

In the heart of the Upper Hood River Valley in Parkdale, chef-owner Justin White smokes every meat over real cherry wood sourced from the valley's orchards, a Northwest spin on traditional barbecue. Slow-smoked pork ribs are the specialty, joined by pulled pork plates, smoked tri-tip, and a piled-high Danger Zone burger. Sides lean local with pear coleslaw and garlic parmesan fries, and the famous fruit pies and seasonal pear dumplings come straight from Apple Valley Country Store. With indoor and outdoor seating beneath Mount Hood, it is a rewarding stop after a day in the orchards.
