We were under the impression that it would be a half pig but turns out it was cut up in pans ready to eat and it was all dark meat so I'm assuming it was all pork butts that he roasted. Don't get me wrong, I love pork butts I just thought it was going to be a 1/2 pig so there would be some loin in with the rest of the dark meat. It was served with buns (just average store buns). The house-made corn dip with chips was really good and spicy. The cowboy caviar with chips was also good. It was corn, beans, peppers and tomatoes. It could've used some salt and it was a bit watery but I still liked it. The baked beans were alright, nothing special. Small beans with pulled pork, brown sugar and bbq sauce. They were also a bit runny but they seemed to thicken up a bit the longer they sat on the burner keeping warm. I wasn't a fan of the mac & cheese. I liked that they used cavatappi pasta, but it was very bland and was really soupy. I later read the menu to see that my assumption of it being made with cheese sauce was accurate. There was no baked cheese on top that I think would've helped maybe. The potato salad was made with quite large chunks of potato (larger chunks than I prefer) and they were a bit undercooked in my opinion. There was also black olives and carrots in it which I also did not like. Most of us questioned if it was store bought potato salad with added olives in it. The cole slaw was nothing special. It was very large pieces of shredded cabbage & carrots and seemed like maybe it came right from GFS and into a pan. They did bring 4 different kinds of bbq sauce that they make that were great. I personally wouldn't be ordering from here when I see them at a fair/festival/event nor will I pay to have them cater an event I'm hosting. I am glad I was able to try it and form my own opinion. I've even world class bbq and this was not it. I've attended Memphis in May a few times and also been to the Carolina's and Texas for bbq that have won many awards so I do feel like my opinion of this is accurate.

Spoiler alert: This smoker ain't broken! We were really in the mood for ribs and I didn't feel like cooking them myself. Ribs locally can be hit or miss with the emphasis on "miss". A quick Yelp search led us to Broken Smoker in Middleville which was only a quick 20-25 minute drive from Grand Rapids. We were quickly seated on busy Friday night and each ordered a slab of ribs. Sides include hand cut fries, macaroni and cheese, Cole slaw, hushpuppies, collard greens, etc. The ribs were wonderful beyond belief and were very meaty with a nice smoked taste. There were BBQ sauces for every taste. I particularly enjoyed the "Memphis" (sweet) and "Outhouse" (sweet/spicy). We probably could have gotten by with splitting a slab but the upside was ribs to take home to enjoy the next day. I make pretty good ribs at home but really don't think I could come close to these beauties. Enjoying the rest of our ribs the next day, we decided to come back to further explore the menu. Fast forward 5 days and we're back in Middleville. This time I had the brisket sandwich (with great hand cut fries) and my wife tried the BBQ grilled cheese sandwich which came with pulled pork. Most BBQ afficienados know that barbecue is somewhat regional. Texas - brisket, Carolinas-pork, etc. I've spent enough time in Texas to know Broken Smoker's brisket stacks right up with great Texas brisket. Again, a wonderful smoked flavor. My wife was as happy with her choice as I was with mine. There is a "Missing Man Table" (pictured below) that commemorates those who served and didn't make it home. Some places do this on Memorial Day. Nice to see this important reminder as a permanent fixture. Excellent and friendly service highlighted both visits.
