Boston’s best new barbecue
Essdras M Suarez/ Globe Staff
The Red-Eyed Pig This tiny Carolina-style takeout spot, which opened in West Roxbury Center late last year, clearly encourages eating with your hands. Only flimsy plastic silverware is offered and the poor forks threaten to snap under the weight of bulky beef brisket ($12.95), charred outside with a moist center. Meaty ribs ($14 half rack, $24 full rack) have very little fat. One item stands out in name and taste: green chili and pork belly doughnuts ($6.50, pictured), deep fried with farm cheese, lemon, and smoked paprika salt, then drizzled with garlic aioli. 1753 Centre St., West Roxbury. 617-325-1700. www.red-eyedpig.com .
