So good! It's a great local spot, very welcoming. I can't get enough of their meatloaf. Excellent Mac and cheese. Lunch special are a great deal. Great place to bring friends. We order take out way too often. Great patio in the good weather.

Food was amazing! Will definitely go back. Staff really friendly and atmosphere was casual. One of the best bbq around!

Ambience: it's was as expected. A cute bbq joint with paper tablecloths. Felt like I was in BBQ country. The food was very good! I had the chili to start- it was very smoky and rich. I would recommended if you wanted something small for personal/individual. Next up was the pulled pork sandwich- tender, lacked a little flavorful. I expected a little more spice but paired with the BBQ sauce, it was yummy! The sauce was smoky and tangy which gave the sandwich the flavor it needed. The sides stole the show- the broccoli salad was a fresh accompaniment. Needed it with all the heavy foods. The Mac and cheese was ooey gooey- and perfectly what I want from a homemade dish. Worth every calorie

A friend of mine wanted to have some BBQ and suggested we come here for dinner. There was plenty of parking around the restaurant. We walked into the restaurant and opted to sit outside. It was a nice day for it too. Outside there was a bunch of seating and there was a large smoker where you can smell the delicious meat. I ordered the Yabba Dabba Doo, which was a smoked beef rib. I had it with a jalapeño corn bread and collard greens. The waitress was personable and stated I won't be disappointed by this entree. She was not wrong. The smoke rib was delicious and very tender. I love the Smokey taste of the bbq sauce. My friend was jealous he didn't ordered it. It looks like we have to come back again so he can get a chance to order this dish! Can't wait to try their other dishes.

Ok, let's gooooo Baby!! Pulled up on the spot to do what I do and film some heat for this new series and to be honest, I did not honestly believe that CT had any good BBQ.....We simply are not known for BBQ and I have done plenty of traveling to know that AMAZING BBQ does not exist here but I will say this much....... I started out with their Cornbread lathered up with white gravy and FAMILY?!?!?! I sank my teeth into this savory boo thang all for my tastebuds to be greeted with buttery passion and a hearty bite of bliss. The gravy simply was packed with flavor and yes, the cornbread was crisp on the edges, which only enhanced the overall experience for me. Lightly salty but truly made with love right out of the gate. Let us traverse on over to the collard greens. I like my greens to be WET and dripping with C-Juice. They did not disappoint. There was a great fatback pork flavor and just the right addition of both vinegar and spice to kick in some heat with a touch of sweetness to these greens!! Somebody in the back knows exactly what they are doing and I am here for it. How about that Mac & cheese though? Cheesy? YES!! Panko crust for a powered up bite and the elbows were nice and soft. I was impressed with this Mac n cheese. I even mixed them with the greens to make sure the flavor combination was one for the record books. Now for my BBQ Baby Back ribs. they were ok. A decent bite, tougher chew than I had hoped for and a little dried out but the flavor was working. A zesty and tangy bite for I think there was a honey mustard type sauce spread about these ribs, or so it did taste that way. The customer service here was phenomenal!! I will be back to try more items definitely.

Was in the area so I decided to stop for lunch. I've been meaning to try this place out for a while and I must say, I will be back. I'm a big fan of brisket and the brisket sandwich I had was amazing. The meat was tender with a good smoke on it. The bun was a good choice and was able to hold everything together. The hand cut fries were a nice touch as well. I also ordered the brisket queso dip which was delicious as well. The cheese wasn't salty at all and the chips carried the right amount of salt. Pair that with the smokiness of the brisket and it was a delicious bite. Service was quick and easy especially for lunch on a Friday afternoon. I ordered at the bar but I will definitely be back to eat in the restaurant to try the other things I saw on the menu. Loved the fact that there was ample off street parking. Also, clearly seeing and smelling where they are smoking and barbecuing the meat speaks to the authenticity of what they do.

We stopped by here after a day at Mount Southington. This place is homey and quaint. Our server was friendly and attentive. We ordered the queso to start as an app which was quicky followed by our main entrees of burnt ends and pulled pork sandwich. The burnt ends were smokey and tender, I didn't think they even needed any sauce on them. The ciabatta bread for the pulled pork sandwich was fresh, though I was getting pretty full and took the read off. I wasn't a fan of the BBQ sauces, I found them too vinegary for my liking. We got sides of mac and cheese, jalapeno cheddar corn muffin, and a side salad. The salad was simple and tasty, the mac and cheese I enjoyed too. I had higher hopes for the corn muffin, thought it would have more of a jalapeno taste to it. We were in and out pretty quickly and hand plenty leftovers for a later day.

If you love BBQ this is the place for you ! Very chill , casual relaxed environment with amazing staff! All the BBQ sauces are house made and GF! Meat is made in the smoker. It's excellent!! Tender and flavorful! Wow! Prices are great and they have a good lunch menu as well. There's a variety on the menu. We went on a Saturday at 430-5pm and it wasn't busy then but all of a sudden there was a rush and it became super busy ! It was about to rain so we didn't take the chance to sit outdoors. They have a bar area side and then dining plus a nice spacious patio to eat with umbrellas. We were very happy to have tried Smokin with Chris after walking the trail for the past 3 years and always walking by it . We will definitely return!
