    Saw smoke rolling - great sign

    We found 2nd Hand Smoke on Yelp driving from Chi to Det. Fairly close to interstate. Always love to search out small places in out of the way places - almost always pleased. Saw smoke rolling as we arrived right at 7pm on a Friday, great sign. Place was empty, not so great sign. Ordered pork belly burnt ends and wife ordered pulled pork sandwich. The pork sandwich was really good. The pork belly burnt ends were terrible. I imagine they had been sitting around all day long - couldn't get my plastic fork to stick into the small hard nuggets. Very chewy and tough. Sauce helped but VERY disappointed. Sides were good - really enjoyed the corn nuggets (mostly hush puppy balls with a few pieces of corn in it). I'd give Second Hand BBQ a second chance (see what I did there?) if I was a local but would not return as a traveler.

    Brisket, ribs, Mac and cheese, pickled onions/jalapeños

    Killer BBQ coming out of this truck! Everything was great, especially the ribs, Mac and cheese, and the pickles onions and jalapeños are the perfect side to cut all the richness. Can't wait to try more of the menu next time I'm in the Kzoo area

    stopped by on the way into kalamazoo and so glad i did ! it was empty on a sunday afternoon, but don't be fooled. the food and service is fantastic. we ordered a 3 meat platter (comes with two sides and a soda). it was plenty of food for two people for around $25. they also have four bbq sauces that you're welcome to try. there was only one employee but he answered all of our questions and even checked on us after our meal. the restaurant is quite small and has both indoor and outdoor seating as well as a clean one stall restroom. there's a dirt parking lot out front as well. it's a little off the main road/freeway but worth the drive if you're in SW michigan. would eat again !

I'm always hopeful but heck this IS the North. It seems something falls short. At least for our meals City BBQ was fantastic! Wife had pulled pork sandwich, baked beans & potato salad. Potato salad had that southern type whipped potato coating on the potato chunks. Me? I had two meats. Great pulled pork & chicken. Tried ALL of the BBQ sauces. If anything negative was to be said, would be the meats were quite juicy. Oh Well! I'll suffer!! Excellent coleslaw. Not too much vinegar or attempt to cover old cabbage with too much cream. Perfect balance. Now my big surprise for here. Collard greens. PERFECT side dish!!! Then there's Bob at the register. Friendly, willing to offer information on the menu. Too many now days could care less. But HE was upbeat & made you feel like you choose the right place to eat. Also every employee working there had a nice smile. Simple business benefit that doesn't cost anything to implement. I did not get the name of the nice employee who brought me my walking staff, but he did it with another nice smile & a warm laugh. I will come back to CITY BBQ to see if they continue to give the same kind of service & excellent BBQ with that extra attention paid to those telling side dishes.

I was welcomed by all the staff and my order was taken care of by who I assume was the manager. All the staff were very nice and friendly, but he went out of his way to take care of my order and to make sure that I had everything I needed. If I owned a restaurant I would want this guy representing my business. The ribs I ordered were very good. I will definitely be back.

My husband had their Michigan Honey Amber. We had their signature appetizers, Bavarian pretzels and Beer cheese. The pretzels were bite-sized and paired with a significantly larger portion of beer cheese. The beer cheese is house-made dip and is creamy and infused with one of their craft brews. My husband had the blackened shrimp tacos. The tacos are packed with well-seasoned blackened shrimp and a refreshing slaw. The tacos were served on a blend of corn and flour tortillas, which were sturdy enough to hold up perfectly against the generous, packed fillings. Latitude 42 also operates its own micro-distillery, producing a signature Bourbon Whiskey, Gins and Rums, which are sold on site. The menu is extensive and offers a variety of handhelds, pizza and seafood options. There were many families while we were there. Overall, food and drinks were very good.
