The steak salad
Makayla S.

The pretzels was amazing. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. So was the bourbon chicken with shrimp , sweet and a little heat to it.

The restaurant from the corner

Holy smokes what a great stop! Traveling through to Owensboro, Kentucky, we decided to stop. So glad we did! This place is a destination stop (on a KOA property). EVERYTHING is new! Food was fabulous! Service was better! Drinks were cold and the bathrooms were spotless!

Drove through town and heard some locals tell me this place was nice. Def felt disappointed with the food. I was told this place got good bbq, checked out the menu, no baby back ribs, and the sides also didn't have greens, so that was an added let down. I opted for the smoke brisket special, the food took a while to come out and it wasnt even hot, i would say its maybe a touch under warm. This smoke brisket was missing its smoke brisket ring, if anyone is in to that. The baked beans also was not hot, and felt like it was missing something, it was almost as if it was just from a can. Overall the food felt lacking, but the restaurant was situated in a cool looking western town setting. So I guess that was cool.

Taco Flight and 2" smoked pork chop meal was delicious.

Great Service and delicious food and quant spot and our first time at actual Saloon a they have a food truck that is just as good we hear!

Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich
Stephanie S.

We stopped in on a road trip to Louisville. We started with pulled pork pork rinds. The pork rind nachos is a cool concept, but the rinds get soggy before you can eat them. The mushiness wasn't too appealing. This would better with the rinds on the side for dipping. For lunch I got the southern smoke burger and he got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. Both came with fries and I added baked beans to mine. Everything was mediocre, nothing special. The pulled pork was dry and cold, I assume it wasn't fresh. The Nashville hot chicken wasn't a true Nashville hot chicken sandwich, it had a hot bbq sauce or something on it. The baked beans were definitely from a can. The service was good, food came out slow. The restaurant was really cute and clean and the bathrooms were also very clean.

Wednesday Wings special at Smoking Pig. @Tread42 strongly recommends Korean BBQ sauce.
Todd T.

The best BBQ in Southern IL. Friendly staff who always keeps your glass full and the food is top notch. Frequent specials on the menu, including Wings Wednesday that feature some of the bulkiest wings you will find. Give Chef Richard and the Smoking Pig a shot, you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend.

Traveling home to Oklahoma random stop. Food was real good! Place is brand new great western theme. Service was top notch. Giant pretzel was well worth the money.

Cold pork chop
David V.

Had the 2inch pork chop however in the center it was cold had to cut in pieces and requested to warm however seems they put in microwave instead of grilling or doing something else. Beautiful facility and staff was friendly however sadly food was not appealing.

Great little Saloon feel.  Worth the visit.  Locals, come out and support the Smokin Pig, great restaurant, great service, great food!!!

We go here every couple of weeks it seems. Friday all you can eat fish is pretty darn good. If we…read morego on a Saturday I usually get a steak or pulled pork. Steak is usually good. Once in a while it's not cooked as ordered but tolerable. The pulled pork sandwich is very tasty and piled high. They have a small but very adequate salad bar that's fresh and cold. I get takeout once in a while. The brisket is usually very very good. Only once I've been disappointed as it was dry and bland but I drove 30 minutes. I definitely recommend this place. They work hard and the kitchen as you walk in is spotless.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Smoked to the Bone before. I have two big problems with this…read moreplace - it's only open Fri., Sat., Sun. and there are too many things I like here. I usually settle in with one favorite item at restaurants we frequent. Here it's always a dilemma. Today the special was a ribeye steak with two sides. The steak was massive. It was smoked and had a great flavor. My wife got the fish. It is a Friday AYCE special but is available any day. Sundays they have AYCE fried chicken. You can also order a 4 piece meal for a lesser price and I've never been able to finish that. My "usual" is a 2 meat combo. I usually go for ribs and a sausage, but the pulled pork and brisket are both good. I didn't care for the turkey and have tried bbq chicken. For sides, I like the baked beans and fried potatoes the best. Had a baked potato today and it was cooked through. There is usually a soup special - the ham and beans is my favorite. Note that it is usually packed on Sundays at lunch. It is much better to go Friday or Saturday at lunch. I've never seen a line then, but then you won't be able to get the fried chicken! We eat here about twice a month and I highly recommend it. It's the best bbq in a wide area around here.
