I'm a bbq fanatic and I was in the area for a class and came here for lunch. They don't offer the traditional platters but that's not a big deal since you can order the meat by the 1/4 pound and sides. I got a 1/4 pound of brisket and the mashed potatoes with beef creek gravy. The brisket was delicious. It was tender, smoky and SEASONED! The standout though was the mashed potatoes and gravy. Real potatoes and the gravy blew my mind. It had bits of brisket in it that enhanced the beef flavor of the gravy without being overpowering. I would go back just for this alone. read more

This was my third choice as the other two locations were closer to my daughters house and they were closed. Walked in here and I guess it was meant to be. The brisket was very flavorful with it's smoke infused flavors, tasted great. I believe I will be back. The guys were great! I am pretty sure they were the owners. Couple of kids really but kiddos for doing something other than being a digital creator!! read more

WOW!!! SmokeShow BBQ is hands down one of the BEST BBQ spots we've ever been to! Don't let the small building fool you--this place is serving BIG flavors. The brisket sandwich was unbelievably tender, smoky, and bursting with flavor. The pulled pork was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. And the fries... WOW! They were crispy, seasoned to perfection, and honestly some of the best fries we've ever had. Everything tasted fresh, homemade, and made with love. You can tell the owners truly care about the quality of their food. This is one of those hidden gems you'll keep coming back to and recommend to everyone. If you're anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and stop at SmokeShow BBQ--you won't regret it! read more

Smokeshow BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

It's not all smoke and mirrors, but it's maybe a bit overrated on Yelp. Smokeshow BBQ is maybe the 3rd name at least that has appeared on this musical chairs of a business on an otherwise nondescript stretch of Gibson Rd in Henderson. My friend was nice enough to pick up a sampler of sorts, although all items are priced a la carte here (no combos, oddly), and bring it over to my place for us to divvy up. Brisket ($9 for 1/4 lb): specifically, the sliced brisket which barbecue enthusiasts tend to prioritize. Moderate smoke and pulls apart well. Decent on its own and better with both the regular BBQ sauce or the mango habanero. The BBQ sauce is a little sweet and a little tangy, while the mango habanero is very fruit-forward and saves the medium spicy kick for a few seconds later. Pork Belly ($7.50 for 1/4 lb): decent smoke and not too much fat, but also much less tender than you'd hope for, even resisting metal forks when it cools to room temp. Pulled Pork ($6.50 for 1/4 lb): not amazing, but certainly tender and not dry. A better choice than the pork belly if you have to pick one. Very reminiscent of the smoke on the brisket, so they probably really only have one wood and one smoker. Wings ($10 for 5 wings): a bit rubbery and whatever. Really needed the BBQ sauces to help. Mashed potatoes ($5 small): the typical American puree rather than a buttery French recipe or a chunky take, but with an interesting meat gravy that adds enough richness to make it interesting. Coleslaw ($5 small): creamy style slaw, but much more watery than I was hoping for. Absolutely vital for adding freshness to all of the above items though. Banana Pudding ($6.50): a stunning conclusion with creamy pudding, intense banana, and rich crumbled vanilla wafers. I remember trying a banana pudding specialty shop that wasn't this awesome. They did run out of both sausage and ribs by the relatively later time of day on this Sunday. That's too bad because I know my friend always tries the sausage at BBQ joints and I like to try ribs. Smokeshow is a great banana pudding spot where you can find some solid opening acts as well. Hopefully they'll have all the proteins in stock the next time I decide that I wanna have banana pudding. read more

What a fun little BBQ spot! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in, which always makes the experience even better. The brisket and pork belly were both cooked perfectly! Tender, flavorful, and definitely the highlights of the meal. I'm honestly not a huge BBQ person, but I really enjoyed everything we tried. The tacos I made with the brisket turned out amazing! If you're looking for a great local BBQ place with good food and friendly service, this one is definitely worth checking out. read more

One of the best smoked BBQ I've had this year. Ambiance was casual and quiet place to have late lunch. Price was reasonable. Smore cheesecake wasn't available for dessert. It was sold out by the time we were ordering. BBQ sauce was great with sandwiches but pulled pork was bit dry. Coleslaw was in my sandwich so it was bit messy to eat. read more

Just tried Smokeshow BBQ and I have a serious complaint... it's 40 minutes away from my house. Absolutely disrespectful to my gas tank. Now that we've addressed the real issue--this place is legit. The fatty brisket might be the best in town. Juicy, packed with flavor, and melts in your mouth exactly the way brisket is supposed to. No shortcuts, no dryness, just straight-up BBQ done right. Their in-house pickles deserve their own spotlight. Not some throwaway side--these are mandatory. Throw them on a brisket sandwich and suddenly everything makes more sense in life. Sausage links? Not your basic jalapeño cheddar situation. These have a unique flavor that actually stands out and somehow makes every other sausage link feel like it's been phoning it in. And the mashed potatoes with rib gravy... ridiculous. Creamy, peppery, rich in all the best ways--like comfort food that hit the gym and came back stronger. Overall: incredible food, great addition to the BBQ scene, and unfortunately located just far enough away to ruin my self-control. Will I drive 40 minutes again? Without hesitation. Probably already planning it. Highly recommend! read more

Honestly, I'm really picky on bbq. I've been to numerous places in Vegas and this by far has been the best. The food was AMAZING. the crazy thing was every single thing we ordered was phenomenal. We ordered: the brisket sandwich, Mac and cheese, potato salad, side meat of brisket, burnt ends, and pork belly. The guy behind the counter ( I think may have been the owner) brought out some French fries for us to try. They are seasoned in brown sugar, and I didn't even think you could make fries taste that good... I'll Be referring my friends, and will be a frequent customer. I HIGHLY recommend this spot. read more

Hands down the best BBQ in Las Vegas. The brisket just melts in your mouth; although the pork belly was my favorite. My hubby argues it's the brisket BUT to each their own. I guess just do yourself a favor and get both. Fries are yummy, too. Cannot wait to go back. read more

We were in the neighborhood and decided to try this BBQ spot. We already have a favorite place a little farther away, so we weren't necessarily looking for a replacement, just something new to try. The restaurant itself is very clean, which makes sense since we learned they've only been open for about six months. Even the bathroom was a pleasant surprise. We were greeted by the two gentlemen working behind the counter, and the setup lets you watch the food being prepared, similar to Chipotle or Jersey Mike's. We decided to sample a good portion of the menu: ribs, a brisket sandwich, banana pudding, a cornbread muffin, collard greens, potato salad, homemade lemonade, and French fries. I'm not sure what we were expecting, but we were completely blown away. Everything was delicious, but the collard greens absolutely stole the show. The ribs had just the right amount of sauce and smokiness, and the brisket sandwich was packed with perfectly smoked meat. Every item we tried was excellent and had zero complaints. Next time we'll work our way through the rest of the menu, but based on this visit, I can't imagine we'll be disappointed. If our second visit is as good as the first, Smokeshow may end up replacing our longtime favorite of 10 years. We can't wait to bring the family when they come to visit! read more

Came here on a friend's recommendation about a new bbq spot that opened up. Joe greeted us warmly and said "let me know if you want to try anything." There was a delicious smell of sweet bacon in the air and they said it was their pork belly. Holy flavor bomb! We've come here many times since and the only bummer is we only ever come for dinner after the rush so sometimes they're out of some things. Excellent food, great people, awesome customer service, great vibes, BEST BBQ IN VEGAS. Their loaded baked potato is life changing. Overall 10/10, highly recommend!!! Local owned, go support! read more

I'm not usually a BBQ fan... but this place completely changed my mind. From the moment we sat down, the staff was genuinely excited for me to try everything. They were eagerly waiting for my reactions as I tasted each meat, which made the whole experience even better and funnier. The flavor? Unreal. I tried the beef rib, pulled pork, and baby back ribs, and every bite was incredibly flavorful and tender. The beef rib especially stood out. My friend said ribs like that are hard to find, and after tasting them, I believe it. So flavorful. So tender. Melt-in-your-mouth good. What really impressed me was the customer service. While we were there, a customer walked in and the staff immediately recognized him and remembered his drink order. That level of attention is rare these days and so greatly appreciated. Amazing food. Even better service. This place turned a non-BBQ person into a believer. read more

Hands down the best BBQ I've had in a long time. I got the loaded baked potato with brisket, and it did not disappoint -- I ate the whole thing even after I was full because it was that good.

That kind of hospitality goes a long way, and paired with food this good, Smokeshow BBQ has earned a repeat customer. Highly recommend! read more

Small on the inside but plenty of room to sit down and enjoy your food if you'd like. Staff were super friendly & even let me sample the brisket! Much appreciated & thank you for your service & good food! I got Brisket , Mac and cheese & Mashed potatoes. Brisket was really good, a few pieces I got were dry but flavor is there and definitely worth trying if you love brisket like myself! Overall 8/10 Mashed potatoes were good, lacked salt but that added bacon to it gives them a nice flavor. Overall 8/10 Mac n Cheese just needed a little more TLC. It lacked cheese & was just too dry for my liking. I added cheese to it at home to give it a more Mac n cheese feel to it but it definitely has potential with the poblano!! Overall 5/10 read more

Food was great! Fries were seasoned which is always a plus in our book! Hubby loved the pulled pork sandwich. I loved the ribs as the meat was so tender practically pulling apart from the bone with ease. Ribs were juicy and not dry. BBQ sauce was okay (I'm a picky sauce eater), I used a BBQ sauce we had at home . Mac n cheese was delish, I ate around the chile bits though. The mashed potatoes were yummy and the gravy was good too! The spread for the cornbread was buttery with a sweet but not overpowering taste and paired very well with the cornbread. Overall everything was delish! We will be ordering again. read more

So good! I ordered half a pound of brisket (opted for fatty), large fries, mashed potatoes with beef cheeks gravy, and poblano pepper Mac and cheese for the kiddos and I to share. The brisket was so tender and add the homemade bbq sauce, so delicious. The poblano pepper in the Mac and cheese was my daughters's favorite. My son (6yo) piled his fork with a bit of brisket, mash potatoes, a piece of the Mac and cheese, and then drizzle bbq sauce on it. He said it was the perfect bite. I must admit, the mashed potatoes were the best I have tasted yet. The fries must be cooked in fat to achieve such a nice texture. The gentlemen were also very kind and helpful. Highly recommend! read more

I never really write reviews. But my family brought dinner and the fatty brisket was insane. Don't know if I've had such good bbq here before. Crazy good dinner.

I knew when I walked in the door I was in the right place. OMG smells sooo good! Really nice, clean little shop but I was getting to go Love a place where the people working are happy to be there and love what they do - this is one of those. Got brisket, ribs, mac n cheese, collard greens and mashed potatoes and gravy. I wanted to dig in while in the parking lot but this was a surprise for my Husband's bday so I was good - heh. Delicious doesn't come close! The lean brisket was juicy and flavorful-you can taste the meat - not just smoke and seasonings. Super tender and the bbq sauce hit right! The ribs were melt in your mouth good. The bbq sauce is perfect. The sides were excellent!! Husband is happy and we will be back soon! read more

My family walked into Smokeshow around 4pm on a Saturday- so a couple of items were sold out. We ordered the brisket (half reg, half fatty) fries, beans, cornbread and mango habanero wings. WOW!

Stopped in to try this Q place nearby. This was definitely an upgrade to the one that was here before. Tried the ribs, pork belly, brisket, pulled pork, fries and the poblano mac & cheese. All were delicious. Fries were delicious and fresh tasting. All the meat was tender and tasty. I LOVED the pulled pork. Tender with a nice crispy sweet crust. Mac had a little heat but not so much to take away from the flavor. All the meat is sold ala carte by the 1/4lb so you can put together as much or as little as you like. I'll be going back to try the other sides and desserts. read more

My husband stopped by Smoke Show BBQ on his way home from work after we had seen photos and heard great things about their beef ribs and brisket. We were excited to finally give them a try. Unfortunately, by the time he arrived, they were sold out of brisket, but they did have one beef rib left, so he grabbed that. He also ordered a pulled pork sandwich and a quarter pound of burnt ends. They seriously hooked us up! They gave us extra burnt ends and even threw in a sausage for free. My husband said everyone was super friendly, and he had a great conversation with them while he waited. When he got home and I opened everything up, it all looked and smelled amazing. They included two different sauces, a sweet one and mango habanero. Both were delicious. All the meat was juicy, moist, and packed with flavor. Our favorites were definitely the burnt ends and the beef rib. We will absolutely be back to try their brisket and Mac and cheese. Highly recommend! read more

This place is awesome. A nice addition to the Henderson restaurant scene. Had a little bit of everything and still more to try. Poblano Mac n cheese and fries for the sides. Both excellent. Two Oaxaca Poblano pepper sausages. Best sausage I've ever had. Very flavorful and a good size. Fatty moist brisket. Very good. A couple of STL pork ribs. Pretty tasty. And some pork belly. Pork belly was mostly all fat but had a good flavor. These guys put heart into their food and make a great product. Get in there and support these guys daily. We need to make sure they stay in this location and keep the customers coming in. Owned by some really nice guys. Get down there and give them a try. read more

Randomly found this place on Google and decided to check it out with the wife. We went in and it was empty, wife was a bit doubtful but wanted to give them a shot. There has to be some decent bbq in Henderson, right? We looked over the menu and got some recommendations, ordered our food. The guys inside were helpful, willing to explain the menu and laid back. I wish I had gotten their names. To the good, we ordered the mango habanero wings, brisket, pork belly, baked beans and Cole slaw. And they threw in some ribs they wanted us to try. Everything was great, brisket and ribs tender. Wings and pork belly moist and flavorful. And the sides were great too. I'll definitely be back to try some more of their offerings. read more
