My husband and I stopped for a leg stretch and a bite to eat on the long drive home OKC to home in San Antonio. He had a brisket sandwich, slaw and cookies while I enjoyed the special-sliced pork sandwich, chips and a bev. Delicious lean meats, great slaw washed down with sweet iced tea. Loved the rustic atmosphere and friendly service. Stretched our legs at the Mercantile next door buying gifts to take home. And of course we took a photo in front of the World's Largest Rocker.

This is a must stop place to eat! Even if you’re not headed to Stephenville or any of that area make the trip. Texas Hill Country Furniture next door is full of handmade impressive work. We stop every time we are close.

Their brisket is so tender you can cut it with a fork. No knife needed! Was a little disappointed with the sausage. Not much flavor.

My husband and I took a road trip to this smokehouse. Friend said it was very good. We placed our order and sat down. In 5min our order was ready. They reheated everything in the microwave. I ordered a loaded pulled pork baked potato. My husband ordered the 3 meat special with baked beans. Had to drown everything in bbq sauce for flavor. Beans looked and tasted watered down. Again, no flavor. The upside was the people were very friendly. But that doesn't makeup for tasteless food. Also, no smokehouse smell like we have experienced at a real smokehouse.

Looking forward to their great food but left without!!! Extremely crowded, no social distancing at all, only a few people in line with masks, and one man behind the counter had a mask on but it was under his chin. What a disappointment. Guess it’s all about the money😷

Visiting from North Dakota. I found the nearby geocache and stopped in for a late lunch. Got the small Brisket Sandwich with cole slaw. Enjoyed my lunch.

I have heard great things about this place so was excited to FINALLY get to try it as we live 2 hours away....as we left, I wasn't excited anymore. My friend and I ordered the sliced brisket sandwich with chips and a drink to eat there. I also placed an order of just meat to go...as I was waiting on my sandwich at the counter, I saw an employee weighing out the meat for the to go order.... And then stuck it into the microwave and heated it... Then she got several other containers out of the cooler and started weighing out the different meats and heating them in microwave as well. The sandwiches were fresh and good, but the meat I ordered was sliced very thin and so dried out from being microwaved, it was awful! Spent over $50 here and got about $5 of edible food. Won't make that mistake again. Now I know why there weren't any cars in the parking lot and no one else eating there.

The meat is really great and the sides are good as well. Nice atmosphere and family owned. They also have a bakery on the same premises so sometimes some great dessert.

Visiting in texas and the kids took us here. Really good bbq and all the sides were homemade and delicious. Rustic environment, trailer parking for sure. Fun shops for shopping. Beautiful natural wood furniture ,, hand made. Lots of home decor. If your anywhere near the area, its worth the drive and the lunch and the shopping. It makes for a family fun day.

Very good bbq - we had ribs and brisket. Requested lean cut on the brisket and it was! Rib meat literally fell off the bones. Green bean were fairly bland, mac & cheese was very good. Toast was so-so. Service was very friendly and helpful - especially for us first-timers. Be sure to see the World's Largest Rocking Chair in the parking lot! There were some flies around our table - kind of irritating.

I stopped by here enroute from Stephenville to Dallas. I needed a quick bite, and had a hankering for barbecue. For flavor, the order taker recommended the brisket, and in particular the chopped brisket. I had the large sandwich ($5.95, $8.95 with drink and chips). There was a nice condiment bar (pickles, jalapenos, etc). While it was a little gray, the meat was flavorful and moist, and I found the regular and spicy barbecue sauces tasty. Natty is rolling in atmosphere, with rough wooden walls. and walls of local and regional goods. The bathrooms are modeled on outhouses, with male and female single units (heated, thank God). Good food, reasonably priced.

We make the effort to drive west on IH20 and south on 281 to get to this place for our favorite Brisket Sandwich. It is moist, not fatty, and so good! The kiddos love to pose by the "world's largest cedar rocking chair," too. There is also a store on the property with a variety of items from large rustic furniture to fun kitchen towels. Need a specially made bench or such? They will do make it in beautiful pecan or mesquite to your specifications. Quite a variety in the middle of no where!

Quite the Texas place to stop. Store next door has wonderful custom one of kind high end furniture. Smokehouse is a full menu barbecue place. Fast reasonably priced and good barbecue. What compelled me to review today is the baked potato salad. My wife could have skipped the meat and just had the salad. My pork tenderloin was tender and good but I saved the baked potato salad for the last bite. It’s 5 miles off I 20 and worth the drive.

My husband, daughter, son-in-law, granddaughters and great grandson went for a late lunch today. I am not a smoked meat aficionado because usually the smoke flavor is overpowering. Today’s adventure was a taste treat that will stay in my memory banks - subtle smoky flavor, tender as all get out, generous serving, and I can’t wait to return! Plenty on the menu to tempt the youngest to the oldest in our party!

Rib plate was the special for the day. I asked my friend if she wanted to split a plate and she declined. They said you get 3-4 ribs , we both got 5 each and I ate a couple- to much food. The baked potato salad was excellent as were their beans. The pies were not as good ad the other food. I have had the cobbler before and it was amazing. Will visit again very good.
