The brisket was amazing. Barked up just right. The smoked chicken was some of the best flavor, not dry like some others tend to be. Coleslaw was a sweet yet tangy mixture nice consistency. The ribs had a good smoke to them. Mac & cheese was great. And the beans had as much meat as they did beans. Everything came out great. Thank again Drew.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! We’ve eaten here multiple times and the food is consistently amazing. My personal favorites are the dry rub wings and the smoked sausage. My family also loves the brisket and pulled pork, both are always tender and full of flavor. The signature sides are great too, and the banana pudding is a must-try. What really stands out is how much they care about their customers. You can tell this place is built around community. I see why they call it the Smokey Drew’s Family, because Drew truly makes people feel like part of it. Drew is good people and a dang good pitmaster. We’ll definitely be back!

I’ve got to say the atmosphere is truly something else when you see the Community come together. Every time I have stopped by. It has been a line, but they do an amazing job by getting customers in and out in a timely manner, and the food is absolutely amazing.

If you haven’t tried Smokey Drews BBQ you are missing out🔥. I have tried the ribs, brisket, pulled pork sandwich, wings, beef rib, chicken quarter, pnuckle sandwich, mac and cheese, and loaded baked beans and everything was seriously so good. I mean EVERYTHING! It was cooked and seasoned to PERFECTION🤤 When you go make sure you get their signature sauses! Everything is so delicious i definitely recommend (best bbq in town) 💯 Not to mention the line was fast, as well as the food!
