Ordered:
Pint of Jack's Abbey "Post Shift Pilsner" (~$8)
Pit Boss (~$32): 3 meats: 2 brisket, 1 burnt ends; 3 sides: crinkle cut fries, pimento mac & cheese, and cornbread; with pickles and watermelon
Add-On Three Famous Wings (~$5)
Aya's take:
The Smoke Shop offers a wide variety of BBQ meats, beers, and whiskey - you will leave here full one way or another! We decided to get the Pit Boss so we can try more of their menu offerings. The brisket was super tender, smokey, and fatty. The 3 sauces which were each described as sweet, spicy, and mustardy complimented the meats well. I particularly enjoyed the sweet one. The burnt ends were doused in sauce which made it hard to enjoy the burnt ends for what they are. It's usually a sweet, smokey, and almost candied. The sauce it was in was so overpowering that I couldn't appreciate the burnt ends for what they were. The sides were also pretty mediocre. The crinkle cut fries were fresh, salty, and crispy while the mac & cheese and cornbread were both pretty dry and lacked flavor. I liked the pickles which added a fresh, crisp contrast in taste. I could've used a lot more considering the amount of meat there was. The Add-On Wings are a must if you want to try their Famous Wings without getting a full order of them. These were smokey, juicy, sweet, tender - just a beautiful burst of flavors in every bite! This is a must-order here. No BBQ is complete without a pint of beer! The Post Shift Pilsner was light, had a smooth texture, and tasted great. Decent meal with some hits and some misses!
