Curious Pig
Your ultimate destination for the BEST BBQ in the western UP. Curious Pig restaurant in Crystal Falls, MI supports farming by featuring fresh ingredients and produce when available from the local farms and farmers markets in the western Upper Peninsula.. We also grow our own herbs and vegetables during the summer months. Our Curious Pig menu consists of many made-from-scratch meals loaded with lots of love, heart & soul including tri-tip, ribs, brisket, smoked pork loin and pork belly! Don't miss the Curious Smoked Cristo Sandwich, featuring turkey, ham, gouda, mozzarella, provolone cheese on French toast with strawberry puree.
We are a culinary destination where the art of smoking meats meets homespun creativity. Our pitmasters put a unique spin on traditional BBQ favorites, tending premium cuts low and slow over wood fires to achieve unparalleled smoky perfection. Complement your meal with our signature array of house made BBQ sauces, ranging from tangy vinegar-based to rich and molasses-y. Don't miss our candied jalapeños and crisp pickles for a burst of sweet heat. Refreshing house made sips like sweet tea, lemonade, and fruit purees provide the perfect thirst-quenchers. For a sweet finale, indulge in rotating dessert specials dreamed up by our talented bakers - from gooey bread puddings and velvety cheesecake to decadent pies and moist carrot cake. Every visit promises a delightfully unexpected sweet surprise.
