Ne Bbq Smokehouse - Cloquet

We were driving through and found this place on a whim. It was phenomenal and exceeded our expectations! We highly recommend NE BBQ and we will definitely will be going back!

I have gone many times and the service is always amazing, and the staff is extremely friendly. The restaurant is always clean. The food is amazing! I love the buffalo chicken dip! The price of the food is even better!

I tried the egg rolls and mac and cheese, and both were absolutely fantastic. I'm completely full, yet I still had enough food to take home for another meal. The service was excellent, too. I wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy the entertainment that was just beginning. I will definitely be back!

I absolutely loved the Thai tacos! The flavor combination of pulled pork and slaw was incredible—truly delicious! We also tried the brisket bites as an appetizer, and they were fantastic. The juicy tenderness combined with the chewy toast was just amazing. It's tough to decide which I prefer more: NE BBQ or Duluth Grill. This place is wonderful!

I visited for lunch today and ordered a sandwich that featured pulled pork. Unfortunately, they were out of pulled pork, as well as 3 or 4 other items on the menu. Seriously? Isn’t pulled pork a key highlight at a smokehouse? It took a long time to receive the food we could order, and the loud rock music playing didn’t help the atmosphere. Overall, it wasn't a great experience, and I likely won't return.
