Smoke A Holics Bbq

Absolutely amazing!!! We where traveling from Colorado Springs CO to Huston and stopped off for dinner. Got the Loaded Corn Bread. Food was ready in less the 5 min during a dinner rush. 5+ must try. Nicest people you will ever deal with. Thank you all so much.

This is the best kept secret in BBQ! Dont know why they haven't been named top 10 in DFW area! Food taste, portions and preparation is always the same and consistent. Their prices beat everyone else's, especially with the portions they provide. Smokeaholics is the best in Texas. Better than Terry Black, Railhead, Panthers City, Dickeys, Cousins! This BBQ got em beat!

We've been eating here for a few years now, and they have never, not once, let us down. It's easily the best around. Especially on Soul Food Sundays

Went to a bunch of different BBQ spots around the FWD area and this was my favorite spot, kool aid, mac, turkey and brisket were all very good

I tried the loaded cornbread for the first time. I ordered it with brisket but they were out, so I picked smoked turkey as a second option. It was delicious, I’ll give it a 10 out of 10.

My order was ready upon arrival and everything I needed was in the bag. The barbecue lacked smoked flavor but it was tender. My potato salad had egg shells in it. The mac and banana pudding were good. It was super busy at the time so maybe an off day. I'm willing to try it again.

Great lunch. I had the brisket and hot link my brisket was a bit too fatty but it was good. Mac n cheese taste creamy and thick very good my green beans was flavorful with smoke meat. I will be back I enjoyed it currently at my desk sleepy. The young lady at the register was nice and fast. My meat was a bit cold but once I zapped it in the microwave I was good. Pick up only you can not dine in at this restaurant.

2024 Review-Great customer service and organized clean establishment. They hand out buzzers to notify you when your order is ready. Ribs not seasoned like previous visits. 2022 Review- I wasn't given what I ordered. Nevertheless, I took what they gave me because all their food is still good. I checked order before I left, told cashier it was fine. Most people don't check their food and maybe upset once they notice. Please prepare what customer's order. There was also a guy customer harassing women as they waited. They can't control other people's actions, but it's still bad for business. Note: I will still support Smoke A Holics Bbq. 2021 Review- Food is still great, but sadly I only had 2 pieces of bread for my order. When purchasing 4-5 different meats last time I received 4 pieces of bread. This was my friend's first time coming to the establishment, she ordered sliced mixed brisket and some other items. She only received fatty sliced brisket not the mixed she order, but she loved it regardless. My friend sides tasted totally different from the sides I purchased last time. Her mac and cheese and potato salad tasted really delicious compared to what I had last time. I did not purchase any sides this time because I did not really enjoy them the first time. However, I would have bought 2 large mac and cheese given the way it tasted this time. The reason why I'm docking them one-star from my last review is because I like places to stay consistent. 2021 Review-The staff was amazing, as soon as I arrived at the restaurant there were several people waiting outside for the place to open. The rib tips were some of the best I've ever had. The ribs melted off the bone and tasted great. The lean brisket was good but I prefer the tender fatty brisket. The jalapeno cheddar & black pepper sausage were full of flavor. I enjoyed the banana pudding, it was made just the way I like it. The sides and cornbread are average, yet still good. I will definitely return to try the turkey legs on Tuesday.

If I'm putting anyone on to BBQ in the city, it's gonna be Smoke-A-Holics. Hands down. Most spots either have great meat or great sides--but this place? They do both and do it well. The brisket? I always get it extra moist--tender and flavorful every time. The ribs are solid, and those burnt ends? So good. But let me talk about the sides for a second because whew. The baked beans are fire, and that thick slice of bread with the pickled onions? Chef's kiss. Even the chicken salad surprised me--it's all good. This is easily my favorite BBQ spot in Fort Worth. Now, heads up--it's not a sit-down kind of place. The vibe is small and simple, and there's usually a line, but it moves quick. I've always been treated with respect and great service, even during the lunch rush. If you haven't tried them yet, don't sleep--they're worth the hype.

Here's the deal. I went to Smoke A Holics for lunch today and instantly realized I entered BBQ heaven. The inside is small but the service is efficient and the staff are very friendly. Once I had my three meat platter (ribs, brisket and turkey) and the smoked Mac and cheese and beans, it was a religious experience. Do yourself a favor and try Smoke A Holics soon!

I was craving some loaded cornbread. Now the drive to this BBQ RESTAURANT is a hike. It's an hour drive for me. However, it is WORTH it. Food is always good! My favorite items are the loaded cornbread and rib tips. Yummy, delicious and GREAT! There is usually a line and I am always there early. So I am one of the first 5 people. Once you order your food comes quickly. It's hot and bagged for carry outs. I am always happy, full and SATISFIED! The staff is pleasant and organized.

Well well, am I glad I stopped by here. The fact that Daniel Vaughn of the Texas Monthly mentioned this place should have everything been a clue, but this small BBQ place in the South of Ft. Worth is fantastic! I tried the brisket, turkey, and salami with sides of colalrd greens and smoked mac and cheese. The brisket had a little too much fat for me, but it was well rendered, so that's just a matter of preference. With a nice peppery bark with deep smoke flavor, the taste was excellent. The turkey was juicy and full of of flavor. The salami, I wasn't sure what ro e pect, because I've never had it smoked, but it was delicious. The collards were so flavorful it's ridiculous and the mac and cheese were slightly smokey and cheese. Staff was very friendly, too, so I can only recommend giving them a try. You won't regret it!

My first visit here and went for Soul Food Sunday. The brisket was great, and smothered country style ribs were excellent. For sides we had cornbread dressing, collard greens, candied yams, and smoked mac and cheese. Will definitely be back!

Increeeedible bbq. The brisket was so flavorful and well smoked. Omg I could just keep eating this. The mac and cheese was also flavorful. Pork belly burnt ends were really sweet and my husband loved it but just a bit too sweet for me.

So I saw an article yesterday about Soul Food Sunday at Smoke-a-Holics. I've sampled everything in the picture and all of it was delicious and has a nice smoke. For me the Ox-Tails and the Meatloaf are the best items. Next would be the Brisket and Chicken. The pork chops are flavorful just a smidge on the dry side but absolutely edible and better than any other place I've tried I really like the Cajun Corn, Mashed Potatoes and the Collard Greens have a great flavor, very traditional I would say. The Sweet Potatoes remind me of Thanksgiving and are nice just sweet for me, I dont eat sweets. All in all Im very happy with everything and highly recommend Smoke-a-Holics. You can tell love and passion are behind the food. Soulfood Sundays are on the 4 Sunday of each month. Support your local small family business and get some great food. I loved how much foot traffic they had and there are things I'm going back for and I'm going to step out the norm and try their Coca-cola cake! Want sum Get sum! Smoke-a-Holics they for sure know what they're doing

Love love love me some @smoke-A- Holics ! Get the chicken and dirty rice first . If you have room After that start w their ribs and brisket . Brisket is moist and seasoned w love .

We stumbled upon this place looking for another BBQ spot. We ordered the Loaded Baked Potato (2), Banana Pudding, Baked Beans & a large KoolAid ($42 and some change, total). The baked potatoes were good but the BBQ sauce was kinda watery and too sweet for my liking but not a huge problem. The potatoes were a nice size and the brisket was STACKED. Baked beans were good. The banana pudding was SMACKIN!! Absolutely loved it. Koolaid was good as well. I think we'll be back to try other things.

One of the best bbq I've ever had. The brisket were amazing, flavorful, and tender. Definitely get the burnt ends, Coca Cola cake, and chorizo sausage.

BEST BBQ IN FORT WORTH! Today was my first visit to Smoke-a-Holics and it won't be my last. They know exactly how to smoke some ribs and brisket. Their rub is incredibly flavorful and the ribs are that perfect almost fall off the bone but still with a little bit of tug. The brisket was moist and tender. And so happy I came when they have collard greens cause they're some of the best I ever had. They don't have seating so you have to order at the window with the super nice staff and then take with you.

Loaded Cornbread was very good. We added beef sausage to ours with no sour cream. It was still piping hot when we got home too.

Great customer service and organized clean establishment. They hand out buzzers to notify you when your order is ready. Ribs not seasoned like previous visits.

The best Mac & cheese everrrrrrrr! It's so creamy and cheesy ! I love the smoked turkey and both pepper & jalapeño sausage. Fast service . Good music. It's a hit everytime . They really don't miss.

Amazingly good BBQ! So we had their brisket (4/5), their spare ribs (6.5/5 best I've ever had!) jalapeño cheddar sausage (5/5!) their pork belly burnt ends (6/5 and I'll dream of these until I have them again they are that good!) and the wife had the brisket sausage elote corn (6/5!)which she said was out of this world. We also had their bbq beans which were excellent and they potato solid which was home made but middle of the road. Overall this was by far some of the best BBQ we have ever had in our life and you could tell the people who make this put in some love making it. Also I absolutely loved their sauce! Highly recommend!!! Thank you smokeaholics.

If you're looking for good bbq, look no further than Smoke-A-Holics. My sister and I ordered online and decided to try the loaded cornbread, pork belly burnt ends and smoked mac-n-cheese. Everything was so good! It was the perfect amount of food for us to share, and we even some leftover to eat for later. We would highly recommend everything, and can't wait to go back and try their loaded potato.

Best dang BBQ I've had in Texas! Occasionally, I get a hankering for BBQ. Of course, I followed the "stars" to this spot. It's a little spot that reminded me of small country town pick up only places. This BBQ place may be small, but it is huge on flavor. I ended up getting 1/2lb brisket, 1/2lb burnt ends, a loaded tater, and loaded cornbread. It was all delicious and expertly seasoned! The meat was so tender you could eat with a spoon - no knife or sauce needed! Even my hubby, who considers himself a BBQ expert, was amazed by the food. This place deserves a spot in best BBQ places in Texas. The next time we host a BBQ dinner party, I am grabbing food from here. I did see a few bar stools near a table wall inside, but it really is too small to try to eat in there. No worries! Food this good deserves to be picked up, taken home, and enjoyed with family and friends, or at least with a streaming movie. The parking lot is good sized and there is a strip mall next door if their lot is full when you go.

This is what you need to know... When the pitmaster has his picture on the front door, his reputation is on the line! This guy delivers! When we showed up there was a line out the door, and when we left, there was a line out the door! This is a high quality locals joint, and the word is out! Especially when you make the Texas Monthly Top 50 (man, there's over 50 BBQ joints in FW alone, forget about all of Texas!) There's not much room to linger, and with lines like we saw, no one planned to stay. You come in, get what you need, and take it home or to the picnic! Parking is limited, but you won't be there long... and neither will anyone else! Don't worry about it! Just like the meat: slow down and take your time, and it'll work out. Let me start with this, now that we have gotten to the food: brisket nachos!! Get 'em! Forget about it! Heaping piles of brisket, killer queso, and ya get home and throw it together! The BEST! We also grabbed the rib plate, the smoked mac n cheese, collard greens, and pork belly burnt ends. Those ribs are fall off the bone delicious! Gotta say, he nailed it! The smoked mac n cheese is some of the very best I've ever had. Those pork belly burnt ends, they rival that fancy place up the street... easily! That said, the word is out on this place! You better get in here while you can... before they franchise, and you better believe it... if I were these guys, it would already be in the works! 5 STARS for Nailing it in FW

Whoever came up with this salmon salad y'all put some love in it . Rib tips didn't even make it home. Great place to go for some great BBQ. For the quality of the food I'll pay the price.

Little place in a run down neighborhood on the southside. I was looking around, taking pictures, and the guy let me come in and do the two giant smokers, which are named Loki and Thor. He said they use a combination of pecan and oak wood. Me and 11 others in line when they opened on a Saturday. Take away only. Took mine to nearby Hillside Park to a covered picnic table with a nice hilltop breeze, and a great overlook of downtown Fort Worth. Brisket was good but not great by Texas standards. Decent flavor on the bark but the lean was a tad dry. sausage 8 was excellent. Really nice flavors and a decent snap not spicy. The rib tips, 5 which were basically cross-section cuts of ribs, including the bone, we're just too tough to eat although you could tell the rub on the outside of the rib had a good flavor with a touch of sweetness. When you're first in line on Saturday morning, you expect the freshest meat they ever deliver. These ribs felt like they might not have even been cooked today. Collard greens 7.2 were very nice with just a little bit of kick in them, and the creamy mustard style potato salad 6.4 was a calm accompaniment to the meal, if maybe a tad sweet. I had my own drinks in the car, so I did not purchase the bottled drinks, which were the only thing available. If I lived around here, I would definitely return nothing else for my hillside sitting where I ate

Food was fast and great! Take-out only. Right off the highway. Since we had been traveling and try to avoid chains, it was perfect for us.

It is a small shop but it is busting with so much flavor. The entire staff was friendly. The brisket was tender and flavorful the ribs are fall off the bone. Bean Mac and cheese greens and potatoes salad were so good everything we got was delicious. Will be back

Wow, first in line by a long mile! I arrived at 9:30am on a Saturday and was alone until about 30 minutes to opening. No one stood in line with me until about 15 minutes til. When they opened, there were maybe 10 people in line. No need to be stupid, like I was, just arrive when you want. I went with the two meat plate. The ribs and brisket. For sides I had the beans and potato salad. I tried to order a bunch of other sides and eventually stuck with what they had/made. The place was packed with employees and they were all hoping along. They were very well tuned in and appeared super motivated to get folks thru. The beef ribs were HOT. As in temperature, not spicy. In fact, the only spice seemed to be salt and pepper. Tasked fantastic. The brisket was the same way. Hot as in, right off the smoker. The beans were a sweet baked bean with a follow through of heat. Not too much, but just enough to tell you that this was kicked up. In fact, these were likely the best beans I've had at a BBQ spot. The potato salad was just straight forward. Not a lot of potato, but definitely a sour/sweet hit of relish and lots of eggs.

We dropped into Smoke-A-Holics for some barbecue to go in our way home. We enjoyed the smoked mac and cheese and collard greens for sides and the brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, and burnt ends. The brisket was very good, we asked for a mix of lean and fat. The jalapeño sausage was a bit spicier than I had anticipated, but still good. The only item I didn't enjoy as much was the burnt ends, they were just a bit too chewy for my liking. All in all, this is a great option if you're looking for quick, solid barbecue.

This truly should be 3.5 stars...Visited Smoked-A-Holics BBQ in Fort Worth on a Saturday. Doing The Texas Monthly "Top 50 BBQ" spots and this place made the list this time. First beware as the parking lot is small, lots of street parking. Second tip is that this place is to go place as there is NO dining inside and I saw NO tables outside. Third thing to know is the wait is long, like we waited 45-50 minutes to get our to go food after we ordered and paid. The thing is most of the customers get large to go orders so this slows things down. The brisket was good and moist but the ribs were nothing special, same with the sausage. We got no sides so I can not comment on them. This was our fourth stop on Saturday and it was a bit disappointing as we had to take the food back to the hotel and eat it there. I feel that there is really nothing special about this place. Brisket was good but that was it.

Visiting DFW and randomly picked Smoke-a-Holics for some BBQ. Mac and cheese was the best I've had in a restaurant, simple and delicious. We got brisket, burnt ends, bologna, chicken, and ribs and everything was tender, juicy, and delicious. It seemed like a family run business, and it was super busy but they got our food out pretty fast. Loved it!

Yes yes yes, now when I want some ribs baby only have to travel 9 miles not all the way to Dallas. Those ribs slide right off the bone! The smoked Mac and cheese was a first for me but cheesy it was, the green beans a little kick but not to much so I ate them too lol. Food is definitely fresh cooked, you can only order and pick up or stand and wait, service was also great. It's those that look like little hole in walls that cook so good!!!

Amazing ribs, collards, & Baked Beans. The brisket was slightly dry but the ribs were some of the best I ever had. Meat stayed on the bone but fell right off when you bight into it. Top notch hole in the wall spot!

Came here with my Aunt on my last night in town. I'm always looking for some good/great BBQ and this place is great. Great food, great service and interior is different. The lady at the counter, I believe to be the Owner was a very nice lady. I wish I could have tried their greens but they were out. Cornbread was delicious and the burnt ends, OMG! They pretty much melt in your mouth. Banana pudding was good! This is a definite go to spot if you are ever in town.

Food was good. Just an update as I said. Haven't been back again but plan to soon. Every time I go it's packed or sold out. Over the phone orders accepted with CC

This one was found worthy of a home in the 2021 edition of Texas Monthly Magazine's The 50 Best BBQ Joints. It's easy to see why. $27.07 bought a 3 meat (brisket, turkey, pork belly burnt ends), 2 side (collard greens, smoked mac 'n cheese) plate with a bottled soft drink. So, the price point was reasonable. The brisket was smoked perfectly, with nice bark, buttery fat, and a respectable pink ring. The understated rub allowed the meat's flavor to shine. The turkey is solid, but here the real star of the show is the pork belly burnt ends. This is truly what BBQ aficionados call meat candy! Both sides were solid, the greens not drowning in vinegar, the mac 'n cheese creamy and full of flavor. So, highly recommended, but go early because parking is limited.

Everything about this place is Amazing. Real bbq and the peach thang whewwww it's addictive

Disclaimer: For me the true rating is three and half stars. 3 is too little and four is too many. Decided to visit another Texas Monthly Top 50 spot out in Fort Worth this morning. Smoke-A-Holics. Got the there 10 min before they opened on Saturday 2/26/22 and was 5th in line. Was a bit disappointed I wasn't allowed order by the slice or piece. I had to order by the minimum weight which is a half pound; not a great way to be able to taste everything and not order the whole restaurant. I also had to eat in my car because they have no indoor dining Pork Belly Burnt Ends: 5/5 Rib Tips: 4/5 Smoky Mac n Cheese: 4/5 Collard Greens: 5/5 Brisket: 2/5 Smoked Salami: 3/5 Ribs: 2/5 Short of it is the things they do well, they do really well. And the things they don't do well, well they don't. Best Collards I ever had in my life. Pork Belly Burnt Ends were sweet, crispy, meaty, no gross pieces of fat. Amazing. Rib Tips were a real surprise. Imagine having perfect bite sized spare rib! So so good! Smoky Mac n Cheese was perfection. Brisket was pot roast. No smoke flavor at all. Smoked Salami was good but I had to order half a pound minimum, was way too much. Ribs were dry and not memorable. I'll def be back for the Rib Tips, Pork Belly Burnt Ends, Mac n Cheese, but most importantly... those damn collards!!!!

The BEST!! The BBQ baked potato is my favorite, but everything is amazing. Don't forget the koolaid.

Whenever we're in the Fort Worth area, we come in visit this amazing Joint. Every Tuesday they have a special stuffed smoked turkey legs, it's not really stuff, but it's covered with deliciousness from different types of offerings. One of our favorites is jambalaya over smoked turkey legs. But today that was not available so we went for Ragin Cajun and WOW this is another favorite one of mine, and I just had to share it with you. We'll be try the barbecue soon.

Brisket is on point. Banana pudding amazing. U get plenty of helpings. Ribs were big and plentiful. Baked beans had ground beef with a little spice to it, very good.

So, so, so good. I'm so mad I didn't learn of this place sooner. They OVERSTAND barbque and all the Fixins!!

Meh. Let's start with the customer service, the young lady was sweet and all the employees seemed to enjoy their jobs, so that's a plus. The place is small and they don't allow dine in and no more than 10 people in at a time. I was seriously disappointed in the rib tips, they were tough and dry. How sway? I'm not going to dwell on it because a Wednesday might not be a great day to visit a bbq joint. The highlight of my visit was the bbq Mac! It was everything I expected it to be and more. The brisket was juicy and tender, the Mac was creamy and flavorful, and the sausage had a nice spice to it. This is something I would definitely recommend ordering from this spot! Will I return? Absolutely! I like to give everyone a fair shot unless it was just a horrible experience. I'll be back.

best bbq in the city ! everything is fire. the secret menu on sundays is fire! customer service is always good. always satisfied never disappointed!

I love everything that I've ever eaten from there.it's been a few months and it is only because I don't like the way the tip screen is put in my face.other than that, the meat's are excellent!! I will go back of course.

I don't see how this place made the Texas Monthly top 50. As part of our Dallas barbecue safari, we tried their ribs, brisket, and sausage. The ribs and brisket were either overcooked or wrapped in foil or plastic, because they were soggy and lacked good smoky flavor. The sausage was good, but was too salty. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Smoke A Holics is the real deal when it comes to BBQ in Fort Worth. This week I tried the Brisket Nachos and when I say PHENOMENAL, I mean it! Loaded to the top of the box, Smoke A Holics brisket lays on a bed of chips & queso w/ jalapeños on the side to kick up the heat. Smoke A Holics brisket is on point, seasoned well, smoke infused and even in the chopped style you still can see hints of the smoke ring. Ordered online to avoid the wait, restaurant can be crowded at times, however with good BBQ that's expected. Great establishment and black owned!

Best the FOOD in town, excellent Black owned restaurant that has an awesome menu filled with delicious dishes

I recommend everything about this place. It's definitely a #1 bbq spot. Food is delicious and Customer service is to outstanding.

My lady found this joint on IG after some persuasion she convinced me to we should hit them up for their Sunday Soulfood menu. We arrived five minutes before they opened to a mini line at the door. I was #5, in line once the doors opened 10 people were allowed in at a time. Ordering went quickly as they were preparing in person orders & online orders as well. I ordered the smoked chicken spaghetti and brisket dinner. One side of collard greens, mac n cheese, yams, corn on the cob, & cornbread. Forty nine dollars later I waited about an additional 13-15 minutes then our order was ready. The brisket was tender & moist, mac n cheese creamy, corn had a hint of pepper to it, but it was good. The chicken spaghetti also had a hint of heat to it that truly through the flavor off. Along with the portion size for a sixteen dollar plate was minimal. My lady said the collards were spicy & unappealing because she doesn't care for spicy foods. As for the yams & cornbread.... delish. The sweetness of both those items helped counteract the heat from the spaghetti and greens. Would I recommend this joint? Sure, I'd even try them again for their smoked turkey leg. Is it the best bbq Texas has to offer? Not in my opinion, but hey don't take my word for it give 'em a try. Side note: THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS PHENOMENAL!!!

We were visiting from out of town and were craving bbq so we stopped by here. Very good!! You need to stop by and give it a try.

Best BBQ I have ever had. So good we went 2 days in a row. 1st day there were sold out of a lot. Burnt ends and turkey were fantastic. Went earlier the next day. The brisket was amazing - you don't need a knife. Cajun corn, mac n cheese and pasta salad were fantastic too. Huge baked potato covered with chopped brisket was delicious. We ordered 3 pound assortments both days and took it to the airbnb. Take out only. The banana pudding was well worth a second trip!!!

I've enjoyed many of the "best" BBQ spots in the DFW area through Waco and Austin. Heck, Houston area, too. This place is in the ball game. For me, the ribs are the standout here. I don't know where they are sourcing their spare ribs, but geez they're huge. Really nice flavor profile and as if they're using a cherry wood (which I'm doubting given how Texas seems to love Oak). The brisket is good. Unsure if they're making their sausage in house, but it's good, too. I was surprised to find rib tips on menu as that is atypical in TX, but normal from my home state. Enjoyed all the sides. The brisket nachos are a hit. Service moves quickly, too. At least the few times I've been. I will prioritize this place and also enjoy that this is a black owned and operated establishment. They should be in the discussions and publications like some of the other spots that get fanfare. This place is legit.

If you do not look for it, you might miss it. While entering. (No place to sit). Clean area. Service was great, open kitchen. You can definitely tell the food is good. Just being there for 12-15mins, Pick ups and orders consistently. So we ordered the rib tips (rate: 9.4) BBQ dirty rice (rate:6.5) Peach Thang (rate: 9.8) banana pudding (rate: 9.3) Three Meats (rate: 9). Will be coming again. Did call to compliment the food, Especially that Dessert.
