I used to be a fan of this place and previously gave it a positive review on here. However, my last 2 experiences have been poor; firstly I ordered delivery of pulled pork and sides for a birthday party about 4 days in advance. However,...the meat turned up over an hour late of the agreed time. This week I went to dine in. I understand with the Covid-19 situation things are quite strange now, but they didn’t have the top 3 meats on the menu, including brisket which is my usual order. We ordered a platter which we were still charged the same price for minus the brisket which is the most expensive item. The food was good but service was lacklustre and unfriendly. Spent 1700 baht with no alcohol, and left feeling with the sense I won’t be giving Ashkickers another try.More

It is all about meats and they do not disappoint. I liked it but you really need to be in the mood for an almost all meat meal. Delicious.

Every bite was delicious! We all enjoyed everything we ordered! (Beef shorty, Pork Rips, Hot links) What could be better, wonderful vibe. Owner came to the table was friendly and genuine. Will definitely come here again.

This is not a restaurant. While the local staff was certainly trying it is obvious they are not trained. Half the menu was not available. The pork was really strange and had a funky flavor. All the beer on tap was out. I love BBQ...and wish this place would be better! The venue is nice although empty.More

I’ve been living in Bangkok for 6 months & already come to this restaurant for 7 times. Food is great, restaurant ambience is nice & service is good. However, once I ordered ash kickers combo but for me the pulled pork in the combo is...too dry & the smoked wings were just ok. So me & my husband stick with our favorite dishes, beef brisket, crispy pork belly & bbq pulled pork sandwich. My daughter loves the mac and cheese. We will come again & again.More

Very nice atmosphere and a very clean restaurant, very delicious food with also vegan options. And the stuff is also very nice :) Don‘t miss it!

Though there is nothing new about the timeless cooking triumvirate of wood, steel and meat, Ash Kickers Briskets & Bourbon literally smokes the category with a masterful culinary approach to traditional American BBQ cuisine enjoyed for generations at backyard cookouts and smokehouse diners. Co-founders Gary...Stewart and Colin Stevens are credited with the house’s sterling artisanal credentials; everything on the menu is house-made the old fashioned way, including ketchup, hot mustards, all kinds of pickles, bakery items and desserts. Head chef and chief smokesman Stevens is a formally trained chef, veteran restauranteur and experienced hotel F&B executive whose broad experience includes nearly two dozen openings spanning a 25-year career. At the heart of the operation are a pair of closet-sized smokers where the meats are slow-cooked using an exclusive blend of hickory and local woods. The specially cured logs (no wood chips) are placed in a serpentine-shaped steel trough below the meat and ignited at one end. This lets the wood slowly smoulder like a dense wick, which produces the steady heat and aromatic fumes that cook the namesake brisket and other premium beef/pork cuts to their fall-off-the-bone perfection, with a smoky-rich flavour that tolerates no shortcut or substitution. Having a seat in the soothingly refined, wood-and-iron dominated dining room, we were presented with tastefully plated selection of smokehouse delights. (All platters come with tangy slaw, slice of jalapeno cornbread and choice of one side dish.) First down the hatch was Beef Brisket, a succulent slab of 16-hour smoked Australian Wagyu (alternately: Black Angus) that comes apart with just a fork. The Hawaiian style Kalua Pork arrives as smoker-tenderised shoulder meat served with Hawaiian h’alua cabbage mixed in. Now, to reiterate: all condiments served here are made in-house, and the smoky-sweet-ish sauce used for the Pulled Pork is no exception; its nuanced flavour is orders of magnitude tastier than any store-bought variety could achieve. Next is a down-home southern-US favourite, the crispy Pork Belly is done exactly the way it should be: with a crunchy layer of crisp, fatty skin on top. The Hot Links are a blend of beef & pork, exquisitely seasoned and textured. As if these sumptuous smoke-caressed viands weren’t enough, a selection of real-deal deli-style sides add an extra dimension of deliciousness, including Smoked Beans, Creamy Slaw, Potato/Macaroni salad and what we are certain is the best Jalapeno Corn Bread (150B/4 slices) we’ve ever tasted. Being a BBQ joint, one might expect a menu dripping with in-you-face carniv-ismo, but such is not the case at Ask Kickers. In fact, vegetarians will find a cornucopia of tantalising meatless dishes including our favourite, 3 Sisters Salad with beans, corn and smoked pumpkin in a garlic-citrus dressing. Forget about skipping dessert, the sweets here are in a class of their own, the Mud Pie being a standout with rich chocolate sauce, almond nougat, bourbon biscuit, salted caramel. with a touch of vermouth. Afters menu highlight ingredients include own-grown figs, New Caledonia vanilla, bourbon soaked fruits and candied bacon. And don’t even get us started with the brunch menu (served til 3 PM) with omelettes, house-cured bacon, pancakes, grits and buttermilk biscuits to name just a few, while a hard-core java selection includes nitro-infused coffee & tea.More

Took my daughter here for lunch after seeing a review of the restaurant in some online publication. I ordered the 16hr slow cooked brisket, at nearly 900 THB I wasn’t impressed. The meat was ok, not bad just nothing special. My daughter ordered the pulled...pork, it was soaked in sauce and just average again. Wasn’t to either of our tastes and we live pulled pork. Staff were friendly enough. Bathroom hummed a bit but was clean. The place was dead, one other table in use. I think it might be a better spot for Friday night drinks after work. I could imagine a good atmosphere when it’s full. Wouldn’t go back for food, not for us this one.More

A group of us tried Ash Kickers recently and found the menu to be varied and the food good. Good BBQ and unique sides. Pronounced smoke flavor. I will try the ribs the next time.

I attended a BBQ event and the food and camaraderie did not disappoint. An authentic low and slow American style that creates a crisp and tasty bark that I look for in quality BBQ. Nice selection of Bourbons too. Friendly owners that are passionate about...what they do. It shows in their style and technique and right down to the homemade condiments. A bit far from the BTS but worth the trek if your craving some real down-home American BBQ.More

I had heard great things about ash kickers and it was definitely good food but only okay. My favorite part of the meal was the nachos! We had them with chicken and they were a great appetizer. The BBQ pulled pork was tasty. It comes...with a side of BBQ sauce that had a strong smoky flavor. The jalapeño corn bread has a good flavor but was really dry. My husband had previously raved about the old fashioned but this trip found it to be only okay. Overall a good restaurant but as other reviews said, it’s pretty far from the BTS!More

Ash Kickers Briskets & Bourbon located on Ekamai Soi 12. From BTS Ekamai, it could be a long walk like 1.5 KM via foot. Its better if you take a cab from the BTS train station. The Restaurant was indeed a Texas style BBQ restaurant....Owned by an Hawaiian and American. The space is very big. There is also parking availability. The food was magnificent, the low and slow cooking (traditional BBQ style) was there. There also provide lots of menus from pulled pork, beef briskets, crispy pork belly, BBQ pork ribs. It is so tendered and I can guaranteed no extra sauces necessary (they do provide homemade sauces as well). Everything was cooked with "wood". They do provide draft beer as well. Staffs are all friendly, even the owner greet and meet us themselves. Highly rMore
