Smokin' Good BBQ

We stop at the Smokin’ Good BBQ on our way to Portland, and it was a pleasant surprise!

The service is super friendly, the prices very good and the food, smoking Good!!!! We had the brisket and it was tender, juicy and full of flavours! Everything is handmade from scratch and even the slaw (a bit zesty) and the cornbread (light and warm) were amazing. The plates were huge so we took the rest home.

Don’t hesitate for a second to stop there! It was delicious and totally worth it!

The food gets a definite 5 stars! It's authenticity is beyond reproach. Great flavors done well. Smelling the actual smokers being used on site adds to the meals. Great meats, home made beans and bbq sauces. The service ambiance is where the extra star is lost. The parking is very tight, requiring street side parking. Although there are several quality picnic tables, none of them are covered and you may be eating in your car if the weather turns. The servers don't appear to have time or facilities to wash their hands between customers. None of these shortcomings would steer me away from coming here again, often!

Really good BBQ. Really good! To be honest, the sides were nothing to brag about, but the meat is totally worth the stop. Next time we will probably just get meat and bring it home to eat. Their chili is spicy! Corn bread was just okay. Don't be deceived but he little red trailer. This is awesome BBQ.

Pork sundae - omg, good! Whoever thought to put spicy cashews in with that mixture was genius, adds great texture and a little heat. Hubby had pulled chicken sammie with beans, coleslaw, and cornbread. He liked the flavor of the chicken although he could have used a bit more sauce. We agreed coleslaw was awesome, beans were good (we're used to mine, which are usually a bit sweeter with maple syrup), and cornbread was good (again, same as with beans). But literally all piled together in the sundae?? Yes! Eat all together like a layer cake, as cornbread will get a bit soggy with time.

I head over to this every time I am home. I live in Washington state now and this is one of the great highlights of going back home to Maine. Best BBQ HANDS DOWN I’ve ever tried and the portions are very very reasonable. Just go! You’ll love this place!
