Roadside lunch after the beach. It's worth it! We shared the onion rings (super hot and crispy) and Pops version of nachos...kinda. It's French fries topped with Mac n cheese topped with chopped brisket. I mean, what's NOT to like!! We loved it! Cute place inside, excellent service ( we were thirsty from the beach) and glad we walked in. read more

This is a large restaurant (for the area) with a down-home feel. There's a large bar area with lots of beer options. There's food is excellent. We had beef brisket, ribs, pulled pork, potato salad, Mac n cheese, and slaw. The sauce options were great and all tasted really good. Perfect smoke on the meats and very tender. Our server was very attentive and let us sample some of the on-tap beers. Will definitely go back before this vacation is finished. read more

What a hidden gem! Third trip to the keys, but first visit to Pop's. It most definitely will NOT be the last. The food here is excellent. Great selection. Well prepared. Nice variety of BBQ sauces available to fit regional tastes. The sides are of top quality, just like the mains. And the key lime pie? To die for! Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you. The food and service are five star! read more

We are craving some BBQ and decided to stop by Pop's Smoke shed. My partner was a little nervous at first because the place didn't smell "smoky". Well, the food tastes amazing! I highly recommend the Mac bowl with burnt ends. Our waitress is lovely and very friendly. Will go back! read more

Excellent! I tried the sampler platter which comes with brisket, pulled pork, baby back ribs and 1/4 chicken- you get a little bit of everything. I am surprised to say but the chicken was hands down the best! Super juicy and had the perfect smokey flavor and paired really great with the Louisana Hot & Spicy sauce! They also have a really great beer selection with local craft beers on tap. Service was great! read more

Stop at this place for a late lunch/early dinner on our drive down into the Florida Keys. Because of the time of day, it wasn't busy at all only a few other people inside. Our waitress Rosemary was super sweet and provided several recommendations. They had a happy hour special on sliders and wings so we did a little variety of several flavors to include: sweet bbq brisket slider, sweet sos chicken slider, plain pork slider, Mississippi honey chicken slider, Memphis sweet wings and lastly the Mississippi honey wings. We also ordered fried okra which was great and well seasoned. Our favorite flavor from the sauces used for the wings and sliders was the Mississippi Honey. Also, order a beer called the Sandbar Sunday it was good too for a lighter beer. read more

Nice restaurant. Not the best bbq but it hit the spot after a long hot day. Got the fried pickles and they came straight right of the fryer. Very good. The burger is really good. Nice thick burger cooked to medium with a good sauce. Nicely dressed. The brisket was on the fatty end and it came out with only a little thing if sauce. Ask for more right at the start. Staff was really friendly and it was nice and peaceful with good AC. read more

BBQ Heaven in Big Pine Key! Pops Smoke Shed BBQ is an absolute gem! Hands down, some of the best BBQ I've ever had -- tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. The variety of house-made sauces was a real treat, from bold Kansas City Classic, Memphis Sweet to Carolina Tangy Gold, Louisiana Hot & Spicy, and Mississippi Honey -- there's something for every BBQ lover. Portions are no joke, so come hungry -- this is not a place for lightweights! Every bite was satisfying, and our server couldn't have been friendlier or more attentive. The Southern hospitality here is real. Whatever you do, don't skip dessert. Mimi's banana pudding is the perfect creamy, nostalgic finish, and their pecan pie is downright heavenly. If you're anywhere near Big Pine Key, make this your BBQ stop -- you won't regret it! read more

We stopped in for dinner during our trip with a large group. The food was very salty and nothing to really write home about. The service was great; we just wish the food had been on par.

Stop by this place for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. My husband and I got the 4 Sampler Platter that came with 2 rolls, 2 sides, and 4 meats (ribs, chicken, brisket, and pulled pork). We ask the server (who was an absolutely friendly and helpful) if it was large enough for us to share and she said more than enough that you'd probably need a to go box (we did ). Ranking of the meats from our fave first. Pulled pork was seasoned, flavorful, and plentiful. Next up is the chicken (we got white meat). Juicy and smoked to perfection. Then we have the ribs (4 pieces). It wasn't fall off the bone but it was the right type of tender. Flavor was good but definitely try their sauces on them! Finally the brisket (4 pieces). This was a bit dryer than the other meats but was still flavorful. I just wish it was a bit more juicier (personal choice). We had the fries and potato salad as our sides and they were okay. The place was quaint, clean, with a chill vibe. I'd definitely go again when I head down to Key West again. read more

Amazing BBQ, the best in the keys. The BBQ Nachos are incredible with brisket. Some days they have burnt ends but I haven't been able to try them yet. This location is in Big Pine, has decent amount of shaded seating, got to see a key deer close by too. The service was great, really kind people who know the menu extensively. They have locations at Rockland key and North Roosevelt in Key West. read more

Top notch BBQ and service! On our way out of Key West, we stopped in for a bite. We had a two meat combo with ribs and pulled pork and through some brisket in there for good measure. It was more than enough food for two hungry adults. It came with sides. We had the Mac n Cheese and Beans. Everything was delicious! The owner takes obvious pride in his food and it shows. LOCATION: Our Google Maps took us a quarter mile down the road to its old location. Look for the dark grey food truck on the East side of the road by Lower Keys Bait and Tackle. read more

First time I've had ribs since 2016 and they were DELICIOUS. Slid right off the bone. I think they gave me extra ribs, which I inhaled. The Louisiana Hot BBQ sauce was great. I ordered Mac and cheese & Cole slaw for my sides. My boyfriend got the brisket sandwich which he really enjoyed with potatoe salad. SO GOOD. This is a food truck & there are tables and chairs to dine. Service was pretty quick. Would definitely come again! read more

A lot you can say but the main thing is theyre too inconsistent to charge the prices they do. I heard they were just putting all their food in coolers instead of properly storing it, for 27$ thats almost disrespectful. Theyre stingy with their sauce but not their salt as they often oversalt everything. The recipe came from the grandma but the children did not pay attention because one day the ribs will fall of the bone and other times it'll be like they didn't smoke it at all but rather baked it in an oven. Not to say they did but I can't explain why sometimes its so good and other times I feel as if I got ripped off. The mac n cheese with pork is tasty but even if I have a just a few bites it'll run thru me and ruin the rest of my night. Theyre so stingy with their damn sauce its almost getting a bit greedy to charge a couple dollars for an additional 2oz knowing they don't give you enough. You really need three because of all the salt but thats just their worldclass rub lol Put the damn sauce on the ribs and it wont taste like im forcing diabetes on myself. Quit coming here bc of the small things like that bc its just too much money to get 1/3 plates to be good. When they do it right it tastes great a solid 8/10, and thats what upsets me the most is how lazy they have to be... theyre good people but nobody is telling them the truth and when I went into the resturant it was so awkward I almost left without even taking my food I had already paid for. Nobody wanted to help me until I asked someone where the pick up was and they weren't busy The bartender looked at me twice and seemed to be acting like he was busy but looked like he wasn't doing anything. They load up their fries which is awesome but the food truck was better. Could be a great place in the future but im not going to be there to find out.... good luck read more
