B&K Smoke House

Found them on Google. The food was hot & tasty. The service was great. I definitely recommend you to try them

Great service! INCREDIBLE FOOD! Definitely a family business. The grandma was out in the waiting area straightening up when we walked in. She greeted us. The young lady at the counter was friendly and professional. We got the pork rib and the turkey rib dinners. The pork ribs were flavorful, smoked, and fall-off-the-bone goodness! The turkey ribs were very tender and cooked to perfection! Some of the best mac ‘n cheese in the city for a restaurant, just how your mom makes it for Thanksgiving. The green beans and the greens were great! I hope this business is around for years to come! We look forward to being patrons more and more!

Stopped by for lunch today and was thoroughly impressed. There was a few people waiting on food and everything came up so fast for them. Ordered the rib dinner and was told 5-10 minutes and it was done in just 2 minutes. They showed me the plate before bagging it up and put more sauce on the ribs for me. Super quick and easy process and the food! My god these are easily some of the best pork ribs I've had since Terry blacks in Austin. I personally think they beat those ribs, no question! The sauce is sweet, smoky with the perfect hint of spice that everyone will love. The collard greens are perfectly seasoned and fresh, the Mac & cheese was loaded with cheese and baked to perfection. It might be out of the way but for the price, the quality, the taste and how quick they put this together, you absolutely can not beat this BBQ! This is a must stop for anyone and everyone looking for the best BBQ in columbus. So glad I made this stop.

The motto is you won't be disappointed! They are absolutely right! You will not be disappointed. Anything better and God kept it for his self! Turkey Rib dinner Pork Rib Dinner Chicken Dinner Best Coleslaw in Columbus No pork In the sides

Right I’ve been going here for at least six years. The customer service is amazing. The gentleman who runs the restaurant he knows you literally buy faith. He is sweet. The food is authentic. It is made with love. I’ve never ordered anything there. I do not like and I always come back more

Tender really tender ribs but seams like they could have been more seasoned to be more flavored. Mac and cheese not that great. Beans pretty good. I would go back.

02/28/24- revisited B & K Smoke House last week and sampled another one of their dinner plates; the Beef Brisket w/Collard Greens, and Mac & Cheese. Very delicious. I recently visited B & K Smoke House and wow wee! Probably “the” best beef brisket I have tasted in Columbus. Deliciously, flavorful, savory, and tender. True definition of finger licking good. I purchased the Combo # 1 with potato salad as my side. I also purchased the 10 Piece Chicken Wing Dinner (sweet & spicy sauced wings) with collard greens and mac & cheese for my two sides (2 sides included if you make your order a “dinner” order. Everything tastes amazing. This cooking is made with love. Tight and limited seating. Cool and zen space. Carry out highly recommended. Limited parking on Champion. Professional and welcoming service. Decent prices.

I'm torn between wanting to scream about B&K and keep it quiet so I can keep it to myself, but I'm telling everyone. Probably my new favorite spot, and I can't wait to become a regular. Do yourself a favor and DOUBLE GREEN BEANS.

Excellent food and hospitality! My friend and I were going to an event at Streetlight Guild down the street so we grabbed a quick dinner here (Thursday night). The woman who took our order was warm and we got to meet the owner, James, who sat and chatted with us and gave us his back story. Food was delicious - turkey wings, green beans with banana peppers, and Mac and cheese. Definitely coming back.

Got this because it was a walkable distance from where we were staying and had good price for smoked BBQ. Got brisket, pulled pork sandwich, pork ribs, and sides. The meats were on the drier side and had to be drenched in BBQ sauce for flavor. The brisket and pulled pork didn't have a smoky flavor. It was pulled, the top was dry, but the bottom was wet oddly. See some char on it but didn't taste it. Brisket had dry seasoning on top but didn't really help with flavor. The ribs here were decent. Comes with BBQ sauce already and was tender. Good sides. Value price for quick BBQ but wouldn't get again. One of those you get what you paid for places.

The Wife wanted bbq this weekend and asked me to hook it up. So i found this joint on the net and went for it. Sooo happy I did because this place is the truth. Big portions with Big flavors. B&K save me from standin outside all damn Saturday grillin. They got my vote from here on out.

This place is that place you go to when you want someone who always remembers your order. It feels like your uncle's brother's cousin's next door neighbor who lets you call him pop. It felt like everyone who walked in before me and after me knew each other. Know the place? I got half rack, sauce on the side and I'm still craving them two weeks later. I hear that the sauce rotates, so this one was sweet but not too sweet, tangy and scrumptious. The ribs were...if I said what I want to say you may not understand. I'm originally from Kansas City Missouri and these are gooooooood ribs. The green beans were seasoned with pepperoncini, which was a happy surprise! The collards were good but I like mine very heavily seasoned. Next time I'll just sprinkle some Cajun seasoning and shake on some ACV. All in all, delicious!

Was craving some authentic no frills bbq while in Columbus. B&K did not disappoint. They have various options, but the one that stuck out to me the most were the turkey ribs. I didn't know such a thing existed. They were my favorite. The pork ribs were also good, and the chicken wings, baked, not fried were tender and the sauce was delicious. The staff are extremely friendly, especially the woman working the register. There's a whole back room for sitdown dining also.

I guess you get what you pay for $13 and i got 3 of the smallest driest bones ever, mac and cheese, worst then a box and I got it when they first opened so I can tell the food is not fresh everyday!

I ordered the turkey ribs meal, is brisket meal, and pork ribs meal and all 6 sides and corn bread. The turkey ribs, collard greens, green beans, baked beans and cornbread were all excellent. The pork ribs were dry. I can't comment on the brisket because they gave us pulled pork instead, which was practically flavorless. The macaroni and cheese was likewise without flavor. I can't comment on the cole slow or potato salad, both of which they left off my order. I also can't comment on their sauces because they left those out of the order as well. The wait for them to put this order together was about twenty minutes. I will not be back.

Stopped in expecting regular BBQ, ended up with something better than "just food". Meat smoked well, with good texture and sides that weren't afterthoughts. The turkey ribs especially stuck with me - sweet sauce helps but they don't need it to shine.

They keep pushing out great BBQ in the near East side. Great food and great customer service. Keep it up!

The food is outstanding and the service is prompt. This is a take out only restaurant but they pile on the food where you may have two meals in one. The seasoning of the ribs and bbq sauce is excellent. The sides are flavorful and homemade no instant stuff. Bring your appetite.

B&K is the boom ... food is delicious and love the customer service! And the owner is very friendly ... love the place!

Plenty of on street parking. They've just opened a dining room where we ate with one other couple. Most of the business was a brisk take out and delivery trade. This is a neighborhood trying to climb back up, but, we didn't feel unsafe and the staff and management were very friendly, cordial, and efficient. If you like white meat turkey definitely try the turkey ribs. I'd never hear of them and we had to try them (you can order them individually). The BBQ sauce was not at all spicy/hot and a bit sweet. The low point, for us, was the brisket which was too finally chopped and undrained wet. The pork ribs were meaty, tender and good. The baked beans were very sweet and got raves from those who tried them! The Mac and cheese were acceptable. The greens were acceptable too. The cornbread was acceptable. Pepsi not Coke bottled was a negative for me and even water was a bottle to buy. The portions were large enough so each of us had take home containers. If I was in the area and craving BBQ there would be no reason not to return, but, wasn't exceptional enough to go out of our way for.

The ribs here are amazing! Small local business store front. You can find parking on the streets and service is good, but really relaxed. There are about two or three sauces you can choose from but depends on the day and what is available. Their signature sauce is a sweet BBQ. What they have, is what they have for the day. Those are your options. Definitely recommend.

I not only lucked out finding this top-notch barbecue joint in Columbus, but also had the opportunity to meet one of the owners. We chatted as jazz danced to the delicious aromas and he talked about all of their smoked meats. Adding to the friendly staff was the hometown feeling of the shop with sculptures, kitschy art prints, large potted plants, and a few tables. Coolers in the main room hold bottled drinks and desserts, though there were no desserts available today. I sampled the green beans - they were a little too salty for my palate - so opted for greens and baked beans as sides to my brisket meal. I was not disappointed! The Brisket was shredded and lightly seasoned and is available topped with sauce as you wish. Incredible taste and mouth feel. The greens had the perfect texture and were cleverly prepared in the most effective manner because the leaves were nearly intact and the baked beans taste included an unexpected but exciting pickling dynamic which I rather enjoyed. Overall, the food is delicious and brought out nearly as quickly as you can order. Certainly adding this stop to the top of my go to lists. Top it all off with service with a smile and you have a recipe for one of the best places to eat in Columbus.

Amazing food, great service, reasonable prices. I've been going here on and off for 7 or 8 years and have never been disappointed.

The Food is very good but love them rib tips, and greens great customer service and very friendly fast service normally there's no long wait even if he has big orders Great place to eat.

My team and I were visiting from out of town and we were told that this establishment...has some of the best BBQ in Ohio. So, we called and they tell us that, "we're out of rib tips and mac-n-cheese" on a weekend (*which they are "known-for." A few hours before the Google website says that it closes. What type of BBQ joint runs out of their main dishes? That's VERY BAD for business and VERY DISAPPOINTING to my team and I. We were planning on spending a lot of good $$$$. I will NOT recommend ANY of friends or family to this establishment. Yawl gotta to better B & K Smokehouse yawl leaving "$$$$ on a table.."

first off the customer service is definitely on point. the young lady at the counter and the taller guy in back are so personable. Today I had went back for the 2nd time because baaaabbby, I aint neva had a turkey rib so tender and flavorful. literally neva! So today I merely mentioned my experience with the mac n cheese on my first visit and I was just gonna get a different side this time, they didnt hesitate to make it right and make sure I was happy. Heck I even left a small tip today just off the service and friendliness alone. the only bad thing is no call in orders are accepted and I sort of get it. thank goodness I wasn't on lunch today and I made it in before the 7 people that walked in after me because they are only open until sell out! Good Food. Cool people. Give a try tell em the girl with the stethoscope sent you lol.

Amazing turkey ribs never had them before. But babyyyyy I will come everytime I'm there. Best customer service amazing experience in a lonnnngggg time would come back again and again and again

A nice little takeout place to get some ribs. The Turkey ribs are really good and come right off the bones. The side dishes are great, my favorite is the green beans. I felt like the Mac and Cheese needed more flavor. The staff is really nice. If you are looking for some ribs I would give them try.

The guys at B&k Smokehouse make barbecue the way it should be - slightly smoky and seriously delicious! Today I went with the brisket meal, which was enjoyable in every way. The tender meat - which was falling apart - had a nice smoky flavor to it. The piquant sauce complemented it perfectly. The portion I received was more than ample - easily a half pound of meat. For my two sides I had the collard greens and baked beans. They both tasted home made and were delicious as well. The meal was more food than I could eat at one time, so I ended up saving the rest for later. The guy taking orders is super friendly - taking time to talk to each customer - and the service is quick. Even though there were several people ahead of me I was still in and out in under ten minutes. B&k may be a little out of the way for some, but it's definitely worth the trip. You will not be disappointed!

I used B&K Smoke House to cater the food for our family reunion. Everything was delicious! We ordered ribs, Mac and cheese, collard greens baked beans, potato salad and cornbread. The pickup was on time and the food well prepped for transport. Will use again!

Food is really good. Good flavor sauces. Definitely has a grab & go feel. Staff is simultaneously welcoming and unwelcoming? Reasonable pricing.

The food was great! And the guy at the counter was super friendly. We're thankful that it's in our neighborhood.

We ordered most everything on the menu with a slice of sweet potato pie on the side ... Delicious !!! Apologies, I had bbq sauce all over my hands so no pics this time ! Nice family owned restaurant with delicious bbq !

Oh my goodness! I have never had turkey ribs. They are tender, flavorful and no fat!! Soooo delicious! The chicken wings are grilled not deep fried and are also excellent!! This place is a gem!!

I'm a die hard barbecue fan and tried this joint soley based on location and on the reviews. Sadly wanted it to be so much more but of the group do 5 I was probably the only one disappointed. Service and staff were great, not a place to dine in at but we did and they hosted us graciously. Felt it was barbecue sprinkled with some Lawrys seasoning salt but like I mentioned, everyone else loved it.

Second time taking out an order and the food was great. Best ribs in town and my wife loves the Turkey wings. Brisket was wonderful and we have no complaints. At least on Sundays there are no phone orders.

The best BBQ pulled pork and mac and cheese I have ever had. From the phone call to place the order to picking it up, the service was incredible. I did not have a wait time at all. Just moved to the area and I will definitely be returning often!

B & K is a neighborhood staple (7 years and running) so I'm gonna keep this one short and sweet. Pros: The gentleman who takes the orders is always in a good mood and treats his customers with respect. There's a friendly vibe to the place. Turkey ribs, mac and cheese, turkey ribs (again), brisket, baked beans - - all pros. The meat is so tender and the portion to price ratio is perfect. You get to see your sauce being drizzled so you control how much you get. With the combos you can either choose a soda or two sides, I like options. Cons: Sometimes the line is so long they stop accepting call ins which can be inconvenient if you're in a rush. It is very, very hot inside.

Decided to go back to a place I used to frequent. A place where you just feel at home as soon as you walk in. James makes everyone feel welcome. Ordered the wings which I never had ordered before. Also had the greens and Mac and cheese. The greens are probably the best in the area, super tasty, they definitely don't disappoint. Mac and cheese has the tiny macaroni with plenty of cheese baked in it old fashioned style. And the main event was the chicken wings. They had the slightest smoke flavor to them, they had a nice outer layer of spices that blended well with the moistness of the wings. Then you have a choice to sauce them or not. I had the house sauce which is just a little sweet. Delicious!!!!! Everyone should check it out.

Great, great food. The owners are wonderful. Highly recommended. Delicious turkey ribs.

I had turkey ribs, mac and cheese, and collard greens. The food was outstanding! Service was attentive and friendly. I look forward to returning soon!

7 WORDS - BAD AREA / GREAT SERVICE / CLASSIC RIB JOINT ...A chilly nightg in January 2017. On a whim, Art and I decided to have a foodie adventure, so I found a new rib place (B&K Smoke House) on Yelp! and gave them a call -=625 on a Tuesday night.. The owner answered and when I asked if they were open, he said, "We close in half an hour. How fast can you be here?" I told him 10 minutes and he told me to "Come on Down." So we did. We arrived in about 20 minutes instead of ten. There were two guest waiting for their meals. We ordered ours for here - I got a half slab of Spicy Mustard ribs and two cans of soda. Art ordered a half slab of Honey BBQ turkey ribs, a side of cole slaw, and a Coke. Food arrived in just under 15 minutes - a little long - and the owner called it from the deli-style counter and we had to fetch it - not horrible, but a little less than perfect for the fact we were dining there. Still, he was super congenial and he was hospitible to us as well as people who knocked on the door after closing time - serving people as late as 25 minutes after closing for "to go" orders. The restaurant itself was simple and quaint, but also classy and clean - standard four-seat diner tables with great counter tops and nice chairs. The wall and counter were freshly renovated - and it was super comfortable inside. It's located at the corner of Main and Ohio - and that's probably out of a lot of reader's comfort zones. Still, I didn't feel unsafe, even though we made sure to park in a well-lit area and locked the doors/secured anything that might induce a "smash and grab" attempt. Our ribs were good - hearty serviings and the cornbread (you better ask for it - otherwise you'll gfet standrad loaf bread, white or wheat) tasted home cooked: fresh and flaky. The meat tasted like it had been in the smoker all night and day - probably the effects of a good vinegar marinade - but it still tasted fresh off the grill at a state fair or Ribs Fest. We both enjoyed our food a lot - A LOT. The total price felt a little steep at $27.50 for two half racks, a side of cole slaw, two pieces of corn bread, and three cans of soda. Still, it's pork - so I'm feeling we have to make some more rib trips to give B & K a fair shake - and possible upgrade if prices are comparable. Still - I could recommend to anyone who is safe in such environments. If you're simply a smart tourist - it's not much different than any of the middle class suburban restaurants in Reynoldsburg, Whitehall, Westerville, Grove City, or even Hilliard. I'll go back - and soon.

Food is so so so good. Coming from Los Angeles me and my husband had the rib dinner plate. Large portion and would like to give a special shout out to James!!! This dude was the real deal. Thank you for the turkey legs!!!! This was the bomb ....p.s you right we don't have this in LA lol! Amazing thank you

I am a frequent but not often visitor of this restaurant and it never lets me down. Today the only disappointment was that I didn't get enough silverware with my meal but other than that the food is always delicious and it does look like it comes in the pictures. Ribs fall off the bone. Never really had roasted chicken before this but it has made me a fan of roasted chicken and by the looks of the my friends eating it it is delicious. I have also eating her several times and I don't know why this is my first view of this place but the food is phenomenal. To add to it being a black owned restaurant he over exceeds expectations of what you would want a restaurant to have with kindness, friendliness, fast courteous service and to top it off with delicious food. Definitely a good place to go in Columbus Ohio

All I can say is amen and amen! Firstly the gentlemen at the counters (not sure if they were the owners or not) are very friendly and welcoming from the time you walk in the front door. I'd been excited to try this place since reading other yelpers reviews and it did not disappoint. I had brisket and my mom had ribs - both with a choice of sweet and hot bbq sauce, and the sweet is so tasty. The meat was sooo juicy and flavorful. I had mac and cheese, baked beans, potato salad, and my mom had collards and let.me.tell.you.... that food makes you wanna go smack somebody immediately cause it's that delicious. The baked beans had some kind of extra ingredient (cinnamon maybe?) that makes them taste different than any baked beans I've had before in a good way. The potato salad was sweet and yummy (they said that's the only thing they don't make themselves but I don't mind!). The mac and cheese could've used a bit more seasoning but nonetheless I would give 10 thumbs up if you're looking for excellent bbq. Please do your tastebuds a favor and stop by!

Ribs are absolutely delicious! The meat falls off the bone, it is so tender. Love the barbecue sauce.

Best turkey ribs in town and service is A-1 . They may not be close to where I live but the almost 20 minute drive is well worth it!

Met the owner who is a hell of a nice guy, takes pride in his business, and invited me to stop in. Shop is small, with carryout only. Still had a nice Saturday lunch crowd with a steady line of people in and out ordering and picking up their food. I went with the brisket and the macaroni and cheese. The brisket was smoked perfectly and the house BBQ sauce was delicious. Thanks to Yelp again for all the recommendations for the Mac & cheese... it was AMAZING! Prices are very reasonable and parking is fairly easy to find along the side streets. I will for sure visit again.

They excel at meats here. That's not a bad thing, but definitely a heavier-type meal. I got the pulled pork sandwich, pound of chicken wings, collard greens, and cole slaw. PP sandwich was fatty, and to my shock and delight, pork skin, too. Meat was moist, and dressing it with the sauce provided was delicious. Greens were standard, nothing special from the others. Cole slaw was my least favorite as the veggie itself was quite bitter, even with the sauce mixed in. The chicken wings are FIRE! I've never had wings fall off the bone! These are like nothing you've ever had. Return: I would return and recommend.

Ignorance truly is bliss. Before I ate some B & K ribs, I could go about my daily business without constantly daydreaming about that tender, smokey, succulent meat falling off the bone, slathered in sweet and tangy BBQ sauce. And the sides! The potato salad was maybe a step or two below my mom's...delicious! The prices and the quality of the food will keep me coming back for more.

For looking for soul food bbq I would think it was all cooked by white people no offense I'm white lol No flavor what's so ever Mac and cheese was noodles and shredded cheese greens was so mushy with no flavor

Yum! My husband and I came for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon. The gentleman at the counter explained that they smoke everything every day, nothing is fried. All their sides are made there as well except for the potato salad. He let us try both sauces (one was Carolina mustard style, I believe, but both were good). They also have turkey ribs, and you can order single smoked chicken wings for $1.50 each too if you're not a pork eater. We ordered the brisket dinner with potato salad and Mac and cheese. It also comes with white, wheat, or corn bread. Also a small order of the rib tips, which was quite a serving for a small! Everything was delicious; you can definitely taste the smoke and feel like you're at a good summer BBQ. Brisket wasn't too fatty, rib tips also had a good amount of meat on them. Food, a soda, and a 20% tip was still only about $20, good deal for all that food, since we shared and still had leftovers. There are a handful of tables inside to eat in; most patrons seemed to get takeout. Very interactive and polite staff; the gentleman working the counter reminded each and every person coming and going to watch their step out the door and told everyone he appreciated them coming as well. It's nothing fancy but it's finger-licking good, and we would absolutely come back for the food!

Overall: Whatever your high hopes have for this place--it will meet most of them. Great service, outta this world meats, and some hit and miss sides. Long story short: B&K Smoke House is not as good as the best St. Louis or Memphis BBQ (no surprise here, Pappy's from the StL is second to none). But keeping it C-bus local: B&K and Ray Ray's are hands down the best that Columbus has to offer and when I crave BBQ you better believe I will hit this place up. Service: Yep. Great. Check. Your 1st time here ask James for the $5 spiel. He covers everything you need to know. The meats: This is why we come. It's awesome. Consistently awesome. BBQ ribs, brisket, and turkey ribs--all delish. The ribs were huge and had a lot of meat on them. The turkey ribs were a huge surprise. They were super moist, tender, and just plain yum. I will for sure be back for these again. The sides: The sides are better than most places that specialize in smoked meats. Get the mac 'n cheese. It's home style very similar to Ma's mac 'n cheese at Hot Chicken Takeover. It's a solid home run. You have to get this when you come. The coleslaw tasted just like KFC's (I am one of those people who will go through the KFC drive through and just order their coleslaw.) Don't miss out on this either. They don't make the potato salad in house so it's best to skip that. I would love it if they made a homemade potato salad, because it my favorite BBQ side, I hope they can step up their game because if their coleslaw is any indication, this would be the reason I would come here over any other BBQ spot in C-bus. I love red skinned potato salad and BBQ. I was told none of the sides have any meat in them. That's a lie. I got green beans and picked out several bones, good flavor, but the bones drove me nuts, mostly because I wasn't expecting them. Also, skip the corn bread. Mine tasted like I took a bite of a handful of sand. It would better be suited to act as a doorstop than a side. Bottom line: It's real good food, some of the best BBQ smoked meat around. Some things are better than others, which is why I give it a solid 4 stars. If they would rock a homemade red skin potato salad akin to the quality of their coleslaw and stepped up their game on the cornbread (like spoonbread from The Eagle OTR in Cincinnati) folks would drive from places beyond Columbus to have this experience--I have no doubt about that.

Amazing. It's all so good! The first time we went 3 people we passed on the way in asked if we were headed to B&K- then told us (unprompted) how delicious it was. They were completely right. The pulled pork, brisket, and wings are all so good. The wings are smoked and were so tender. The sides are great as well. We loved the green beans, coleslaw, and Mac n cheese. The baked beans are really unique- spiced and a bit sweet. I wasn't the biggest fan, but my husband loved them! This business is worth your time and money. Stop by soon!

Incredible!! Kind, quick service. Meats fall right off the bone. Rub & smoke are so good that you barely even need sauce. A perfect bbq experience!

Delicious food and excellent service! I ordered the brisket combo (no bun) with Mac & cheese and collard greens. Brisket was cooked well and having the bbq sauce on the side was perfect. Sides were spot on and a perfect addition to my meal. Plan to bring friends back and call B & K for catering this summer for sure. Keep up the good work!

People is glazing the rib tips are like beef jerky don't recommend wouldn't order it ever again
