Visited on a Friday afternoon and it was just in time for a snow storm. Stocked up on some meats and some Christmas treats as gifts. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable of all that we wanted. Great shop with so many options for all sorts of meat. Even some baked goods were sold there. We needed finding out we were helped by the owner and felt it was a great visit. Spent $70.xx for our goods. Will be back for sure

The staff offered samples of their famous bologna which landed us with a whole link to go. That paired with the interesting cheeses (we got nettle cheddar, extra hot, and a cranberry orange fresh farmer's cheese!) made for a great charcuterie spread for our friends.

The frozen cranberry relish was not a favorite. It has a spice we couldn't place but was quite strong.

The "Pig" is King! You know, "The other white meat"! Iowa is to Pork as Wisconsin is to Brats. Fair enough? So from time to time I will order meat products from around the country and have a sample shipped to me. This place has a reputation for breaded pork tenderloin "fritters". Upon delivery, these 8 ounce perfectly shaped, seasoned and breaded beauties looked great! They are packed individually so you can portion as you like and not frozen like a solid brick. Nothing like a fresh cooked breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. I also tried some thick "Iowa Cut" pork chops...very moist and tasty. Customer service is great...fast shipping...small town hospitality. If your' a breaded tenderloin enthusiast like I am, give them a shot. The price is very reasonable while the quality is outstanding.

About an hour and a half drive but well worth the trip!…read moreSaturday early afternoon and it was packed...about a half hour wait for seating was the only downside. Service was outstanding and the staff seemed to be handling multiple aspects of the jobs and helping each other out...no one just did one thing and I think that really sped up the service. Katie was our primary server and was outstanding! We ordered up a two and a three meat deal and had Campground Beans, Creamy Coleslaw, Cheesy Potatoes,, and Mac & Cheese as sides as well as a slice of Texas Toast and Cornbread as sides....oh, and Golden Corn Nuggets as an appetizer. The Corn Nuggets were good and sweet and served up with honey and a ranch sauce for dipping. The meat choices were 3) Ribs, Pork Loin, and Turkey Breast....and 2) Pork Loin and Turkey Breast. The smoke on everything was amazing and just the right amount for excellent flavors..the ribs were very meaty. Some places ribs leave you wanting but not at Watcha Smoking! The Pork Loin and the Turkey Breast were both very good as well...still tender and not dried out. I liked the Neck of the Woods sauce the best (mild tomato based) as well as the Carolina Gold sauce...it had nice kick to it. The sides were all good but the only issue was the Cheesy Potatoes were a bit dry.....I'm thinking that it must've been towards the end of the batch and had been sitting around for a bit. Cornbread was excellent, Texas Toast tops, Coleslaw was a good shredded, wet slaw, the Mac and Cheese very good, and the Campground Beans were the preferred side as they had some good chunks of smoked meats mixed in. Fantastic place, great for small groups and large groups as well...great food and great service...Definitely worth the trip!
