Smoken BBQ

I really wanted to love this place...I love to stop at small BBQ's wherever I travel. The gal taking the order was sweet and efficient and the location on the highway was nice. Ordered the "Sampler" which had 2 ribs, 2 slices of brisket and 1/2 cup of pulled pork. The ribs had lots of fat and gristle, the pulled pork was dry and neither had any flavor other than smoke. I got the mild sauce and it was for the most part without any taste at all. Maybe I just got a bad batch. The brisket ok in texture and fat content, but again...no taste but smoke. The fries and onion rings were very good.

Absolutely amazing food! There’s even covered seating for when it’s raining or they will offer to bring it to your car. I sincerely wish I had known about this place sooner. They were also an absolute gem towards my dog.

Some of the best BBQ I've ever had. I've driven past this place dozen of times over the years but never stopped, so glad that has finally changed! I will definitely be stopping here every time I drive through Oakridge now!! We shared the mac and cheese bites and nachos with all the condiments, pulled pork and brisket and we could NOT finish it. These things were LOADED with the most perfectly smoked meat, every bite was better than the last!!

Amazing little place. Sandwiches start at $9 and they have daily deals that are a steal.

Sadly below average barbecue. Wanted to love it because of the good reviews and the cute little shack, adorable signs, and good location.
But shredded pork was pretty dry, flavorless and the coleslaw had no dressing. Literally shredded cabbage and carrots...no sauce. Fries wimpy and barbecue sauce thin. Boo. Would love to come back. Please address the issues.

This place is excellent! Great portions, hand made batters, fabulous brisket... They have a special for truckers, veterans, first responders etc. They get busy, but you can call in ahead of time. When they get too busy they close while the get cautious because they are a small outfit, but they are worth the wait!

We had to wait 15 minutes while they filled a large phone-in order, so we drove around old town with the kids. Then we ordered the brisket over slaw, the fritters (which are smoked, pulled, formed, hand battered and then flash frozen!) and the fried mac! Excellent!

If you are driving through Oakridge, this place is a treat!

The food is always great 😊👍
The people are also.

Fantastic food and service, very tender flavorful smoked meats and complementary slaw that did not require the typical slathering of bbq sauce to provide flavor - some of the best bbq I’ve had! Definitely worth waiting for, was the highlight of my trip. Thank you-

Walked up to window, no one there. Girl at the door said, I will be with you in ten minutes?? What takes ten minutes to at least take a order? Laziness. Period

There's something soul satisfying about eating barbecue from the smoker on a cold winter's night. From the kids, who each had ribs: "Jingle my bells these are good!" Grownups had the 7" pulled pork and Rooster sandwiches. The portions are generous and it's oh, so good! Plus, the Pitmaster is friendly, funny, and does it all (takes your order, cooks it up, and serves you on even a cold night). Get yourself some Smoken BBQ on your way up or down the mountain -- or during your stay in Oakridge!
