Smokin Barrel BBQ

We were looking for some place different to eat when we were in Omaha for an appointment. Google sent us towards Smokin Barrel BBQ, and we are really glad Google did! It isn't a place we would have come by just by driving around! It was absolutely awesome. I had a brisket sandwich with baked beans. There was way too much meat for me to eat in one sitting. It was so tender that it just melted in my mouth. The beans were very good. Had plenty of pieces of meat to enhance the flavor of the beans. My husband had the ribs with potato salad. He loved them. He considers himself a "rib aficionado" and said these are some of the best he has had. After we got home (a 2 hour drive) he claimed that we weren't thinking when we left and should have grabbed some meat to bring home for supper! I told him next time..because there will definitely a next time! If you are looking for some place for lunch, we strongly recommend heading to Smokin Barrel BBQ!

A friend told me to go there. It was worth it. Some of the best brisket I’ve ever had, cancel that, actually the “best” & I’m from KC & I eat a lot of BBQ. The owners are super friendly with the customers. Cars from NE & IA. Also got to try their Smoked corned beef sample. Also delicious. Will go out if my way to come back next time I’m in town. Took a pic & send it to my husband & friend. Only down side…didn’t have a cooler with me so I could bring the rest back home!

Great people and great food. The smoked turkey was super juicy and the brisket was the perfect texture. The portions were cut fresh when I ordered and more than I could possibly eat in on sitting, Oh and the pulled pork…shredded right in front of you! A+
