    Slow Smoked Brisket Platter
    Sarah W.

    Stopped here en route from Tulsa to Little Rock based on recommendations from many. The brisket platter was huge, but honestly the meat was very dry. The fried okra and cheesy hash browns were amazing! The patio is great and so was the service. They brought water for the dog, and our drinks were always filled which is a huge plus. In general, we came for the meat and were very disappointed. Probably wouldn't make the trip here even if just passing through.

    To be honest this place was pretty good. I ordered the little bit of everything meal ($30) and it did not disappoint. It was so much food, I had to take some home. You could prob share this meal with another person. We came in a Saturday night and there was no wait. The food came out pretty fast and tasted really good. They also have a good selection of beer that is priced good. Our server Karla knew her job and was very friendly! The place was decked out in tons of rock n roll memorabilia. It had tons of space and tons of tables for bigger parties. A++

    The food was excellent and ther service was fast and helpful. Our appetizers came out quick and got - our main course was fresh and flavorful. The environment is comfortable and we enjoyed it a lot!

    I would spend all of my money here if I lived closer. This is HANDS DOWN the very best BBQ! My husband and I have been here several times and we are never disappointed. They pay such good attention to their flavors and seasonings/spices. They're always smoking the meat right outside the restaurant when we walk in. Such a wonderful smell. Nothing misses here. I leave full and ready for the next visit. The staff here is nice and l've never had an issue with getting service!

    What a nice spot for live outdoor music in downtown while enjoying some fairly good BBQ. The band was entertaining and it was sweet to see some customers get up and dance to their music.

    Staff very rude our waitress was so rude. The food is sub par this is definitely a place to stay away. This lady has the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my life. Are tables food was sub par recently bs burnt nasty food and nasty waitresses.

    Dry ribs, nice smoke ring

    Everything this was really good here, my critiques are personal preference. All the sides were amazing. The ribs are almost as good, but I just like a darker bark and the dry rub was a little bland. Everything was made right with the sauce though. I smoke meat too so I'm being harder on this than others would. The texture of the ribs was perfect and plenty of smoked flavor blessed the meat.

    Smoked wings with dry rub, onions rings and 2 ribs.

    I cannot tell you how great my meal was here. It's a cool restaurant in downtown Fort Smith and it's the BBQ that people dream of. I had smoked wings, fresh, hot tons of dry run flavor. The onions rings were hand made, these were not from a frozen bag thrown in the fryer. I did have 2 ribs because I needed to try them. Holy cow, the best rib that I've had! I don't know if I'll ever be back to that city but if I am, I'm headed right to this place. Looks like a great outdoor stage for bands too.

    Good service but the brisket sandwich was not that great. The bun was hard and crumbly and the brisket tasted like it was day old

The fresh lemon really brightens everything up, and the baked beans are absolutely delicious with perfectly balanced seasonings. This is definitely becoming a regular spot for me.

So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Literally, from the day you opened! :( Welp ... here we are again ordering (to go) from what was my favorite BBQ place in my hometown and I'm sad to say ...I'm so disappointed I won't be going back absent of an apology!! :( I ordered 1/2 lb. of moist brisket & a baked potato. I ate the brisket and enjoyed it ... and then I cut into the potato to find a sweet potato. (I don't eat them because I just don't like 'em). So, I called the restaurant to let them know that I ordered a baked potato and was given a sweet potato. She looked up the order and said, "You ordered a baked sweet potato" ... to which I responded, "I don't know why I would order a sweet potato because I don't eat them". That was the point she said, "If you will bring back the sweet potato back to us... we will exchange it for a baked potato". LOL! So, I giggled and asked ... you want your potato back? To which she replied, "Yes!" So, while I was asking my husband if he felt like taking the sweet potato back to the restaurant ... this lady hung up the phone on me! FOR WHAT?? She didn't even wait to find out if we were going to make the exchange. Now, I can concede that I may have made a mistake ordering ... I don't think I did... but, it certainly is possible. However, I've been going to this restaurant for 5 YEARS ... literally since the day they opened!! So, I didn't think asking to have a baked potato because I don't eat sweet potatoes was THAT BIG of an ask! (The price of which is about $4.00: $3.39+tx). Even if I ordered it by mistake, I DON'T EAT THEM ... I just wanted a whole meal for the $25.00 I paid. So, I sent my husband back to the restaurant to make the exchange. When he returned, he described the most egregious interaction I've ever heard which included the cashier telling him: This was His Wife's fault and this would only be a 1 time exchange. They aren't happy about making this exchange because they're losing money. So, we should'n't ever expect that again in the future! Now, I don't know what EXACTLY was said because I wasn't there, but I don't have to be there to understand that if anything remotely close to this happened, then I would classify that is the POOREST SERVICE EVER!! Especially considering they are a high-end smokehouse. THIS was certainly NOT HIGH END SERVICE. AGAIN! I would suggest this place consider that when you're the high price leader in your category, not everyone can afford your food. So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Especially those that live in a country club community because I will tell all my friends and neighbors about this experience and how we were treated after being a long-term customer. While I haven't had complaints about their service in the past ... the, last time I ordered, the food was disappointing. This time, the food was okay, but the service really was lacking. I didn't appreciate them hanging up the phone and I feel that if you are going to sell High Priced food ($25.00, inc. tx {for single plate of 2 items} is pricey) then you should also have a HIGHER STANDARD OF SERVICE! It was overall ... THE WORST!!

I was blown away at the depth of the menue. I ordered right away, ran home and served the meal to my family. I knew these ribs were the best I had ever eaten. Really! I'm just a customer but I think it is very cool this company is owned by a local independant restaurant entrepreneur. I challange you to find better ribs anywhere in this area. Give PnP a chance to win you over! They have a new FtSmith location between Braums and Churches on Towson Ave.

I've tried Dallas BBQ, Fort Worth BBQ, and even Chinese BBQ. Who would have thought that Fort Smith BBQ would be on top. My experience: I came with my girlfriend and ordered catfish with ribs + okra and beans then for dessert an apple pie. I was happy that the okra was pipping hot and delicious. Great! Then I tried the catfish... Woah.. fresh, crispy, juicy catfish. Okay. Didn't expect it to be that good but whatever. Then I dipped it in the tarter sauce - okay. Now they must be kidding me. Even the tarter sauce was good. I loved the ribs, the sauce, everything! It was delicious! So what did you think I thought when I tried the Apple pie? 5/5 The people are great too
