Customer Reviews
This was so damn good. I had the sliced brisket sandwich, the baked beans and the coleslaw. The brisket was juicy and tender (the Memphis sauce inhanced the flavor even more), the baked beans were smoky and delicious and for someone who doesn't typically like coleslaw, I liked it a lot. Great customer service as well. I see why this place is so highly recommend!
In the past I wasn't too fond of Smoque BBQ, but I decided to give it a try again after 6yrs and they definitely improved. The brisket was extremely tender and well seasoned, and the pulled pork was flavorful. The cornbread and Mac n cheese was passable, but the BBQ Gumbo was EXCELLENT!!!!!! I'm picky with gumbo but their gumbo is definitely top quality. If you want some good BBQ, Smoque is your place.
These are an absolute watery mess. Meat tastes good, but not for a taco. Asked for no cilantro and onion, but got NOTHING, no toppings at all. All you get is a little container of meat and 3 oily taco shells, nothing else, for $15!!!! Stick with the sandwiches.
Husband absolutely loved the bbq! Lots of great gluten free options. The brisket was hands down the best! We would go back.
