    Pulled pork, beef brisquet, amazing house made sauces
    Anouk K.

    We had a fantastic dinner and decided to return for breakfast. I had an amazing breakfast burrito! The home made sauces are delicious as well. The owners are the best. Do yourself a favor and stop at this amazing place for a remarkable meal.

    If I could rate 3.5, I would. Canyon Smokehouse was pretty much the only game in town Thanksgiving weekend. The joint was packed to the gills. Like most BBQ joints, you order at the counter and pick up your food later. Ratings of the meats are below. All the meats were not warm enough. The ribs were cold. Ribs - 2 out of 5 Sausage - 3 out of 5 Brisket - 4 out of 5 Everything was served Texas Style. The available sauces were just OK. The green Chile Mac and cheese was a good side. The people were friendly. There is no theme or Ambiance. It's just there. If you go, get the brisket and avoid the ribs.

    Foreground is the brisket, background shows the portion size!

    What a find!!! Stopped in on our way back to Moab from the Four Corners monument. Both had "The Mac" (Hatch chili Mac n Cheese, his had brisket on top and mine had pulled pork) and it was AMAZING!!! Portions were very large!! Staff were friendly and helpful, restrooms were clean and the establishment was decorated well.

    Back again in Bluff and wouldn't miss another dinner at Canyon Smokehouse. Brought some friends this time and again had a great meal. Highlights this year were the Cajun sausage, the brisket Birria tacos where the depth of flavor in the birria dip is amazing, the hatch green chile Mac and cheese and the banana pudding crème brûlée which is not to be missed. We managed to get the last one. Thanks for another great night

    The Banana cream pie crème brûlée was so GOT-DANG good I almost cried in the restaurant (instead I cried in the parking lot)

    The BBQ here in Bluff Utah, ain't no bluff at all! I've searched high and low for a half decent BBQ joint in this state soon as I showed up 6 months ago, now that I'm on a trip back home I done found it (ain't that how the cookie crumbles)! If you're looking for good BBQ then look no further, this is any lover of BBQs Zion, their diamond in the desert. Service and ambience were to match the food quality, speedy and polite like family. If should trek this way again, I will fight tooth and nail to divert the family roadtrip get a table at this place.

    Charred bbq Cauliflower tips w/green chile Mac n cheese and Brisket tacos. Pinot Grigio & local beer.

    I was surprised to find vegetarian options at this restaurant, but they had a delicious cauliflower dish with yummy green chile Mac n cheese. They serve large portions, but save room for the cream cheese brownie. You order/pay at the counter and then your food is brought out, it was a quick process. The restaurant was clean and the employees were friendly.

    Larger dining area than it looks from outside.

    We had an above average meal and we were happy this small town offers a variety of good options. The array of barbecue sauces was impressive as was the serving of jalapeño jelly with the cornbread. You order immediately as you walk in. Meat by the pound or meals with side dishes are available. The person taking the order was efficient. You have a vibrating buzzer so you know when to head to the counter for your order. The decor is very fun and much bigger than it appears from outside. The parking area was full of cars, it almost deterred us from dining. But once inside there were empty tables. Food arrived in no time.

    Nacho w brisket. Already started eating.

    One of the few dinner options in the area and an excellent choice…read more INTERIOR/AMBIANCE: We arrived soon after opening and were seated quickly. There are a moderate number of seats available, but the restaurant filled up quickly. Clean interior, basic decor. FOOD: Very limited menu, no alcohol. We ordered the ravioli and sage chicken. The ravioli was delicious with a nice cream sauce, we enjoyed the addition of the sun dried tomatoes. The chicken was also delicious, stuffed with a mixture which included sage to impart more sage flavor. The chicken dish was accompanied by a generous scoop of flavored rice and Brussels sprouts cooked with dried cranberries. OVERALL: We were very pleased with the meal and full afterwards. Service was good. Overall solid meal!

We had the crabmeat "boats" for an appetizer, which was a halved avocado (2 boats - one per half) overflowing with the crabmeat and jicama shreds, flavored with mango sauce, cayenne, and paprika. It was superb!!! My husband had their signature burger, which also had a delicious array of seasonings and mango sauce on a pretzel roll. I had their salmon, which was a generous slab of salmon accompanied by asparagus and roasted cauliflower (I opted to switch the potatoes for cauliflower). Honestly, this was a special meal for us and Duke's made it an excellent evening.

I did not see the words New York anywhere on the menu, so I don't believe that Smoke is making that claim, but another reviewer mentioned NY, so I will too. I've lived in Utah 40-years now, but grew up in the immediate suburbs of NYC (Long Island) and while many factors make a real NY pizza experience, for me, the crust is the foundation. Somehow, despite the odds, Smoke got the crust right. Thin (perhaps a bit too thin, but not really important), chewy with just the right amount of flavor, something you don't leave on the plate after eating the toppings. Bring a traditionalist, meaning a NY pizza isn't supposed to be a casserole, I ordered a simple pepperoni and cheese pizza, exactly what I grew up with, and shockingly, I wasn't disappointed. I think you'll enjoy it too. Remember, you're experiencing NY style pizza in the proverbial middle of nowhere (with apologies to the residents of Blanding), so it doesn't have to be perfect!

    The pizza was great, legit NY style. Possibly the best pizza I've had in the SW, and far more…read moreaffordable than the fancy place in Moab. Friendly service. The only downside might have been the pizza was a little under balanced on sauce, but we ended up dipping slices in extra marinara for the calzone. The calzone was really good, but not really what I expect from a calzone. Tons of toppings, but not much ricotta and been wood fired it had a different consistency. Got some half off treats from the bakery in the building for a canyoneering course up North Wash. Would definitely stop by again when passing through!

    If you're passionate about high-quality meat and supporting local ranching, Bell Beef Country Store…read moreis the kind of place you'll want to know about. Nestled just north of Cortez, this family-owned country store brings fresh, ranch-to-table beef straight from the pasture to your plate -- and the difference in taste and quality is something you can truly savor. What makes Bell Beef special isn't just the excellent product, but the story and people behind it. This operation grew out of decades of ranching experience, with Scott Bell raising cattle for years and his son Kasey and daughter Raedene, stepping in to help build the business into what it is today. The Bell family's hands-on approach means you're not just buying meat -- you're buying something they're personally proud of. Walking into the store feels like visiting a local favorite rather than a generic market. The selection is impressive: premium cuts, ground beef, steaks, jerky, snack sticks, and even bulk freezer bundles are all available, vacuum-sealed for freshness and convenience. It's obvious a lot of thought goes into every choice on the shelves, and customers often comment on how delicious and rich the flavor is. The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable, ready to help whether you're picking out something for dinner or planning meals for weeks to come. The community vibe here is strong -- people return again and again because they trust the quality and enjoy the personal touch. If you're in the Cortez area and want beef that tastes like it came straight from the ranch -- because it did -- I highly recommend stopping by Bell Beef. It's a true gem for meat lovers and a great example of local family business done right.
