The owner is gregarious, welcoming, friendly, engaging and attentive. The menu offers a mix of bbq pork, brisket, chicken in various forms, salads and homemade deserts. Our food came out quickly. The owner checked on us. The cole slaw is phenomenal - creamy, thick with lots of flavor and not too sweet. The owner's wife makes the cole slaw. Maybe best I've had. I ordered the pork tips because I didn't want bread. The tips are flavorful but you have to be willing to eat around the fat and bones. I loved the tips with the North Carolina mustard sauce. My husband had the pulled pork sandwich. There was a lot of meat on the sandwich and the roll was fresh. The bbq sauces are phenomenal. My husband loved the spicy hot sauce. The restaurant is decorated in western bbq theme. The tables are clean and stocked with sauces and paper towels. There are also a couple picnic tables outside if you want to eat with your dog. The restroom is clean. I highly recommend, and I'll be back.

Even holding your breath, you won't be able to stomach drinking it and it will ruin the entire dining experience. Next, A+ for the Ambiance. You can't do better than the beautiful views of Heritage Lake. Especially when it is nice enough to eat outside. If you live around the area, most likely you will see someone you know and it is nice to have the local hangout. The prices aren't great, but they aren't high end expensive. They have specials and happy hour so you can save money. The portions are large so many people will likely have leftovers. On the visit today, our food was just so-so. We've had visits when the food was really good and days when the orders were mixed up, but usually it's ok or better. Mostly if you stick with the specials you're good. Today one of us got the fish and chips special, and the other got a smash burger and coleslaw. My food tasted ok but it looked on the burned side or like the grease needed changed. My husband said the coleslaw was super dry like it was shredded cabbage. He did like my fried which I shared. They were actually the favorite of the meal. I didn't eat the bun on the sandwich but it looked like it would have tasted good, maybe like a hint of garlic bread. I just don't usually eat bread on fish. Anyway, food was just ok for the 45.00 price tag for two lunches, two waters. I believe they have lunch specials or lunch prices, versus dinner prices on some things. Again, if you're at the lake and are looking for ambiance, this is the place. Stick with a burger, fries and soda or beer or one of the specials. Stay away from the water.

Friendly Staff, a nice rustic wood interior, clean restaurant with friendly Servers. We've had most of the menu over our many visits including breakfast and few times. Their brisket, burgers, pulled pork, pulled chicken and sausages are very good. Their brisket always has a flavorful smoke ring and bark. Their jalapeño corn bread and corn bites are our favorites along with their whisky glazed carrots. Smok'n Crew has never let us down.

Seating is also tight but there is room in the back and tables outside. Order at the counter and wait for your number to be called for your meal. You can also see the pit with the meat cooking. There are plenty of options though there is no true 2 meat plate. That's ok because I made it work. I went with the spare ribs meal and then took the Chuck Norris home to my wife. The ribs were tasty but they gave my jaw a workout, which I do not like. The Chuck Norris though was an impressive sandwich. It came on Texas Toast with pulled pork, brisket, fried egg, bacon, onion, and Pimento cheese. The brisket or pulled pork would be what I would go to next time. For my sides, I had beans, potato salad, and Mac and cheese. All were phenomenal but potato salad was the best! It was a mustard base whipped style. The beans were the pinto beans/ranch style with tomatoes and a vinegar taste. The mac and cheese was creamy with goldfish on top. There are 4 sauces and all were phenomenal. I wish I could take all of them home!. You have the tomato bases in a mild, zesty flavor and a spicy, habanero flavor. There is also Carolina Mustard and Bama white. I think I loved the mild the most. There is fresh-brewed sweet tea which is hard to come by in Indiana but this Bama Boy would love it to be more sweeter. It was a step above water. The Chuck Norris, sauces, and sides make Rusty Silo easily a 4-star. If the spare ribs were easier to chew, a 5-star from this guy would have been given.

I figure if this guy is standing in a blizzard to get some bbq - I gotta get in there. I pull a u-turn and head back to the restaurant parking lot. Fighting the blizzard to get inside - I can see now that it isn't a guy - it's a dummy - well one of us was a dummy. I went into this cavernous joint and was met by half-a-dozen pink steel pigs. I knew I was in the right place. I ordered rib tip dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Those were the meatest rib tips I ever had. They were think and smoky and soon the blizzard melted away. I was hooked. Their hot sauce isn't hot - it's nothing special. This meat was way to perfect to mess with much sauce anyway. The cole slaw was creamy and amazing. The mac-n-cheese was perfect. I sat alone in this cavern of smoke-tastic delight - listening to classic rock that was eerily projected against one wall and eating the best rib-tips on the planet. I don't get out that often - but I am going to start looking for reasons to go to Westville IL.
