You'd better hurry up and get here now! You don't want to miss out. Luckily I showed up just as the ribs were made, so I was able enjoy the literal best ribs I've ever had. On top of that, the brisket and cornbread knocked me to my knees! This place is the real deal, and the staff is just as amazing!

Here's THE bbq find!! Delicious EVERYTHING here. Brisket, pork, mac & cheese, smoked corn, pineapple slaw, banana pudding cheesecake. What's not to love?

★★★★☆ 4.0 Brian Heemy · Jul 2025

This place is named Smokey's for one very good reason, it's because they have real smoked meat. So yeah I couldn't wait to get some of that smoke flavor down my gullet. The food was good, prices are reasonable they did run out of cornbread, and the iced tea came in a bottle. That would be one major thing I would change is that I would have homemade iced tea it would taste better and be more profitable. Seating area is small so it's probably a good option for takeout and parking was a little limited but other than that I will go back for that smoke meat flavor.

By far the BEST BBQ joint here! The meats are stupid tender and tasty! Be advised that their brisket, while delicious, is extremely fatty. We could not finish even one portion because of the amount of fat. The brisket made a hell of a breakfast the next day though! I loved that they give you different sauces to try with the meats. Quality vs quantity vs price is just spot on 👌 Big portions, great price (30$ for 2 meats + 2 sides), amazing taste. And their cornbread (sweet baby Jesus) is the best cornbread I've had. A super generously warm, moist and fluffy piece for 5$! They have rotating flavours like cinnamon, jalapeños cheddar as well as their regular cornbread. The only big downside is that there is no AC! We were drenched with sweat after our meal due to the extreme heat inside.

Sausage, Pulled pork, beans and corn were all excellent. The brisket was good, our pieces were not cut across the grain, maybe it's a Maine thing, but it was still good just not as tender as it could have been. We asked for recommendations from some locals and they claimed this place was priced a little high, well maybe it is for the area, but we would have spent a lot more in Texas for the same amount of food, it was actually less than I expected.
