Star ratings are difficult sometimes! I'd give this place a 4/5 for Idaho BBQ. However, we just…read morefinished up a Texas BBQ trip and this is would rate a little lower if it were located out that way. Here's the breakdown of what we ordered... Fantastic: Cucumber salad, broccoli salad (probably the best I've had) Very good: Mac and cheese (so cheesy!), beans, pulled pork, buns, sauce Average: Chopped brisket Below average: Coleslaw (big pieces of cabbage, a little bland) We are so happy to have found this on our drive to Boise. So much better than a fast food joint! We slammed every bit of our food and feel more than satisfied. Also, the prices were very reasonable. Thanks for a great experience, Burley Bros! Keep up the good work.

The portions were very generous and the brisket was dripping with juices when it was being carved. I ordered a side of Mac and cheese. It looked so good on my tray. Unfortunately my Mac and cheese was overcooked and had gummy noodles and a soupy texture despite being made with real cheese and being seasoned well. The brisket was as good as it looked but the dry and woody pulled pork ruined an otherwise perfect sandwich. The service was lackluster. I felt like I was bothering the staff. Make smaller batches of food so they don't overcook and train your staff to engage people. You are in a food hall, your competitors share a dining room with you.

His food was amazing. My husband and I have been everywhere, just about all 50 states, Canada, Porto Rico, and Europe and hands down the best BBQ in the world as we know it. We just order it to take to Idaho Falls for a guy's shower (diaper party). His ribs are amazing, his brisket I don't even cook it that well. His pulled pork and ChubbyZ' pulled pork are the best ever!!!!! If you are having a party like us he is so great to work with and is bringing it to my husband so he can take it to the party.

We were jazzed to try Smokey Bone as an extension of this food hall…read more The menu was pleasantly overwhelming. Thought the three-meat sampler was good bang for our buck: brisket, pulled pork and smoked pork ribs. $18 for generous portions. We were gonna try the wings but after the server heaped the mounds of brisket and ribs on our tray - we scratched them. We also got corn bread and slaw for our a la carte sides. The meats were good, and good without the BBQ sauces (Carolina Vinegar, Spicy BBQ, Alabama Horseradish). Though we were basically drinking the vinegar by the end of the meal. The ribs were our favorite - lovely, crispy exterior with charred ends and tender once we dug in. The pulled pork was alright. Tasted more like it would work better as a topping on some mac or fries than as a main protein on your plate. I loved the corn bread. Dense and appropriately brittle. It was a fitting companion for the meats. Don't know when we'd be in town again to give other menu items some attention, but Smokey Bone has left a lot of good eats to the imagination - enough to know we could recommend this place to other out-of-towners without getting our foodie cards revoked.

Not impressed with this bbq! Got the brisket and corn bread…read more Flavor on brisket is just ok but without sauce it's dry! The corn bread is just ok more sweet cakey flavor than a good bbq corn bread. The young man cutting the meat was fine but the girl at the register wasn't. I asked for butter for the cb and she forgot it. When I looked in the box I asked her for the butter and she tells me there is none. I ask if there's any in the back and she says no without going to even check and they were not busy. Then she gives me the same meh face she gave the guy in front of me when she told him they were out of the beans. Made no effort whatsoever to go out of her way to do much of anything. And this was at 6 pm on a Thursday night. Not a good experience.

But I finally choose the Outlaw with a side of coleslaw. The bun was very tasty and fresh. The brisket was tender and flavorful. There were two strips of bacon on top of the brisket and three onion rings on top of that. I took off the top bun, added some BBQ sauce and then proceeded to enjoy each thing piecemeal. Until I came to just the brisket and the bottom slice of bread which was small enough to fit into my mouth. It was all yummy. This was our lunch after a visit to Butterfly Haven which was wonderful and I would highly recommend both businesses.

From the moment you step inside, you're…read moregreeted with the warm, smoky aroma of authentic, slow-cooked BBQ that instantly makes you want to try two servings of everything. As a certified brisket connoisseur, there is no debate about their brisket being smoked to absolute perfection - tender, moist, and mouthwatering. The pulled pork is also melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The turkey, ribs, and the smoked sausage - it simply doesn't get any better. For a real BBQ party, try a combo plate with servings of each! (It's okay to ask for extra homemade BBQ sauce - nothing out of a bottle here.) I had the $10 dollar brisket sandwich with smoked mac and cheese for a side. Best lunch decision ever! Oh, and the peach cobbler speaks for itself. Beyond the incredible food, the service is top-notch. Derek, April, Morgan, and the entire crew are all passionate about serving the highest quality product possible. The ambiance is amazing! J.
