Been following Holy Smokes for years. Never a disappointment. Stopped in today for an amazing pulled pork with Mac n cheese. So soft and delicious!! If you haven't tried you NEED too!

2/12/26 - I can't say enough about this restaurant. I ordered the sampler, coleslaw, baked beans, and mac & cheese and split it with my adult son. We were only able to finish half of the meal. I took the leftovers home, and my daughter took three days to finish it. Beyond the generous quantity of the food, it was absolutely delicious. I loved the spicy BBQ sauce. It had a great balance of flavor and burn. Dave and his daughter were very conversational and pleasant to talk to. This restaurant vaulted to the top of my list as my absolute favorite. When we left, my son and I were talking about having them cater our next outdoor family party.

Highly recommend holy smokes for catering! We hosted 70 people for our son’s first birthday party and everyone raved about how delicious it was! They delivered and set everything up which was very helpful. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

Dave and Tiffany have come to speak to my Culinary classes two years in a row and have blown me and my students away each time! So kind, personable and knowledgeable about their business. They truly are an amazing family run company and I would highly recommend their amazing food and kind service to anyone!!!

I wanted to love this place since the reviews are mostly all 5 stars. Maybe it was because we came towards closing(ordered before 7pm and came in around 7:15, they closed at 8pm)? Ordered pulled chicken, chopped brisket, kids meal, and loaded chicken Mac. Mac and cheese was ok, the pulled chicken had a good flavor but I paired with white bread and could barely taste the chicken. So the flavor disappeared unless eaten by itself. Brisket had good flavor but again a little dry (maybe we should try going in earlier?). Also, we weren't sure if this was an accident but we didn't receive any bbq sauce with any of our order so we had to bust out the sweet baby ray's at home to use for all the meats, it was a little dry by itself. Overall 3 star. Will maybe try going in during lunch time to see if
