Ok, I'll preface this with I KNOW my 'que…read more.. I'm a former partner in 3 Guys Smokin', Tulsa original "poster children" for barbecue competitions here. We started in 1987 and founded the Art of BBQ, the former fundraiser for Tulsa's Arts and Humanities Council, as well as the Bixby Blues 'n BBQ competition. Over the years we won MULTITUDES of awards, with our biggest claim that our baked beans took second in the world at the KC Royal. We manufactured and marketed three award-winning sauces and a dry rub. Case made?? Good, keep going please! I accidentally found Luke's a few years back and now I'll drive to Coweta from Tulsa for lunch as it's THAT GOOD!! It's honestly some of the best BBQ I've ever eaten. I went last week for lunch and got my usual, sliced brisket and pulled pork. Both were incredible, but the pork was AMAZING, something that usually doesn't impress me. I can get a butt nice and juicy, but NOTHING like Luke's!!! Not sure if they brine, inject, or what they do?? The meat is soaked with delicious juices and you can tell that it's inside, not just added if that makes sense. The brisket came off the point, which is not what I typically prefer, but it too was incredible. Go early, burnt ends seem to sell out first. Great portions, I always bring home leftovers. I'll TRY not to dive in to my plate and get some pics next time; can't promise tho...

Finally made it here. I'm from TX, so I judge every BBQ place by their brisket. Lukes is probably…read morethe best I've had in OK (places in Wellston and Pawhuska are pretty close, too). It had a good bark, smoke ring, was tender and had great flavor. The portion size was healthy, too. The okra was average, but the portion size was plentiful. The beans were very good, but sweeter than I prefer. My wife had the beef ribs which were the best outside Kansas City I've tasted. She did not care for the mac and cheese but liked the smoke flavor the the white cheese they used. Order at the counter and they bring the food to you. It is a tiny mom and pop place so be there by 10:30 to avoid a line that steadily grows until opening. Lukes reminds me of some of the best small, local BBQ joints you find all over Texas. I hope to get back here when I'm in the Tulsa area.

I thought about it for awhile and finally called them and asked if they actually weigh the meat or eyeball it. The response I received was yes they weight all of it and it had lost liquid. The loss of liquid is why it weighs less now. I have a hard time believing it evaporated a 1/2 pound in 30 minutes time.

Amazing Stop - don't pass it up…read more SmOakies ~ WoW, some Great BBQ! My wife and I got the Fat Boy to split after driving all day coming in from the Ozarks on our summer trip out west. The chopped brisket was delicious with good texture and not too fatty, Pulled Pork, had texture but still tender and juicy with a nice skin on it! The Chicken tender brined and smokes, very tender and juicy. The Ribs had a delicious dry rub and were just at fall off the bone, not over tender at all. The ham was good but the least standout, as well as the sausage were all cooked to perfection, crispy skin and so tenderly cooked. The Slaw was a vinegar slaw that was a little heavy on the onion and celery seed, while the Baked Beans were sweet and tangy, some ketchup and mustard and I'm guessing but I taster Tamarind, delicious . The Potato Salad was absolutely lovely! ~ tasted like a mayo and mustard dressing with egg yokes? , dill pickle chunks and dill... reminded me of a deviled egg potato salad ~ WoW again. I eat BBQ all over the country pretty regularly and they was one of my Top Stops in a long while! ~ Great Job SmOkies! All the staff was very hospitable and the meal went off without a hitch, our waitress Megan was fabulous and stayed on top of everything. My wife and my favorite sauce was the Sa-Mokin' While we generally used very little as the meats spoke for themselves. 5 StarZ All The Way!

Mother-in-law also had steak and said her's was just as tender and flavorful. They both liked their drinks from the bar. Glad Dobber's is back.

She said it tasted like a bologna sandwich, nothing spectacular. The onion rings were very thinly sliced and had good flavor and nice batter, but lacked substance. She said they would be great if they were cut thicker. She ordered a Diet Pepsi and said it didn't really taste right. She said the syrup/carbonated water ratio was probably off. I had the BBQ Frito pie, with point brisket and I thought it was very good. The sweetness of the BBQ sauce, with fatty brisket, cheese, and the saltiness of the Fritos pleased my palette. The beans included in the Frito pie were average at best. It would be better without the beans. I, also had the onion rings and had the opinion on the size of the rings. We probably won't come back here as we were just visiting Wagoner as we passed through. YMMV.

After we got back from running an errand with my mother in law, we had not had lunch, so it gave us the perfect reason to have our first visit. My husband selected the chopped brisket sandwich and mac n cheese for his dinner. I selected a 2 meat plate with pulled pork and chopped brisket(for a $1/up charge, which was no biggie) with bbq beans and coleslaw, with a piece of Texas toast. The pulled pork was sweet but melt in your mouth delicious, and the brisket was some of the most tender I have had in years. The mild sauce I put on the meat had perfect flavor as well. I can highly recommend this for local BBQ in Muskogee.
