Smokey Pit Barbeque - Auburn

This small hole in the wall BBQ joint by Hwy 80 in Auburn is a good surprise for my wife and me. We love finding hidden gems and that's one of them. You will not be disappointed! I had the 3 meat combination with ribs, link and brisket together with macaroni salad and frits.

What a great BBQ joint reminds me of a hole in the wall you would find in Alabama or in the small town of Texas. All I had here is excellent, but let me tell you that I lived in the south and had BBQ from many different places, but the ribs here in Smokey Pit are perhaps the best I ever had tender, great taste, their sauce is fantastic! Pages like potato salad and Cole Slav are also delicious. Prices are reasonable and the service is top notch. If you like BBQ and you are in the area or just go through, you need to try this place!

The food was very delicious. I had the brisket sandwich my wife had with the pulled pork sandwich. I like my brisket without being broken into so much sauce, so next time I will ask for sauce on the side. But it had a really good taste and the grilled beans were great. I definitely come back.

Here's 1 just because I have to wear something. We ordered hot link, pork ribs, dark meat chicken, potato salad, Cole Slav, fries and pasta salad. I never had, the dry and dry, harder than hell, tasteless, bbq food until today. We asked for dark meat. How does a part of the chest and back form a dark meat? The last time inchecked, dark meat consists of leg and thighs. OMG! These ribs were NOT falling from the bone! They were waaaaaay overboiled, hard and dry, dry!!! Fries were soggy, potatoes and pasta salad were more like pimples salad! The in-law was watery! It was our first and last time!

Oh my goodness.. this is amazing BBQ. The Ribs were so meaty, BBQ beans were not to sweet and not to smokey just perfect. Macaroni and potato salads homemade. Hot link spicy but not so spicy that you couldn't enjoy it. Tri tip sandwich stuffed with tender slices. Only 30 minutes from the house so yes we will be back. A must try for anyone who likes BBQ
