Pulled Pork, Collard Greens, Macaroni & Cheese, and hush puppies
Blair E.

I decided to venture outside of Asheville and came across Smokey & the Pig. Since we don't have good BBQ in Florida, I decide I should get my fix while in the south (no Florida is not the south). The rustic building told me I was in for a treat when I arrived. I was warmly welcomed by the gentleman behind the counter and then a woman came to take my order. I opted for the Pulled Pork plate with collard greens, macaroni & cheese and hush puppies. The pork was juicy and tender with the right amount of smoke. I tried both the sweet bbq sauce and the vinegar sauce and realized hands down the vinegar was my favorite. The collard greens were well seasoned and I enjoyed them, was just missing a little pepper sauce. (They may have had it but I didn't ask) The Mac & cheese was cheesy and creamy and the hush puppies were excellent. The seating area is small. There were just 2 tables and since I took one they were completely full. Although it was out on a patio they had a heater so even though it was a colder day, it was comfortable. It seems like a lot of locals stop by for take out as I didn't see anyone needing a table until I was leaving and a guy took my table. I would definitely consider going back here and highly recommend it if you're in the area!

I was a little disappointed given the rating. I liked the flavor of the gravy on the mashed potatoes but thought the pulled pork was a little dry and room temperature. The hush puppies were tasty but also room temperature. I only live 12 min away and it was 11:15am so must have just opened so thought that was weird. The baked beans were ok, but didn't have any meat or onions or anything else. Seemed like they may have been canned. The food was out quickly and employees were very friendly. I may return to try the brisket.

This roadside gem is a favorite of mine! The pork is finely chopped, the variety of sides are amazing and delicious (love the loaded potato salad and the cucumber salad), the prices are good, and the service is fast and friendly!

Pulled pork.

I have travelled the country and eaten at all of the legendary spots. This place is 100 % one of the best in the USA. This is the best pulled pork bbq I have ever had. These people could write the Carolina bbq bible. I feel incredibly blessed to have bbq of this caliber, made by people who care about our community so deeply, on my way home everyday. FAIRVEIW STRONG!

Open for take-out during quarantine!!! I chose the family platter for $25. This includes 1 pound of pork, (3) 16 oz sides. I went with sweet potato casserole, banana bread pudding and collard greens. They now have moonshine bbq sauce which was awesome. Even with a social distancing line of about 10 people, I ordered and had my food back in the car within 10 minutes.

Pulled pork plate with Cole slaw and beans.
Maria G.

Recommended by local because it's dog friendly. Husband is BBQ fan and he gave it 4.5 stars. Everything was great but beans were nothing special. I'm not a BBQ fan but I still give it 4 stars. Pork was tasty and no fat or grizzled. Fries were meh nut sweet potato side was outrageously rich and delightful. Most biz is carry out because they only have 2 tables. Recommend if you like bbq.

Guys!!! On my 3rd trip to Asheville to visit family we stumbled across this G E M. First off, their hand written chalkboard menu gives you a very "cozy, homey" feel and I'm all for that. Secondly, Heath behind the counter was as nice, polite, and welcome as can be. We were a group of 5 and he helped us all pick put and order our food. We opted for some brisket plates and sandwiches, and got some of this sweet potato delicious concoction they got cooking up behind the window (they call it "Sweet Potato Crack" and rightfully so). Once our meal was over (and it was fantastic) we bumped into Tim the owner, boy was he a riot. Very nice to see a small "mom and pop" type of restaurant cook up great food and have even better people owning and working there. We came from Miami and have some family that lives near by, so we definitely will be back soon. Thanks again!

Gave my pup a bone !

We came by 30 mins before closing and got excellent service and delicious food. Everything was perfect. The white sauce was my favorite.

Great people and excellent food. Can't wait to go back. Pulled pork was on point as well as the ribs. Collards cooked just right.

1st time here! Yelp reviews were great they say. Came in…read morethe door at 11:20am, grabbed a menu like the 8 people standing in line. We went to take a seat... thinking it was full service. Nope it's like fast food. ***U must order 1st, get your own drinks, utensils, sauce and wait for them to drop off your food at table. It got so busy close to noon by locals coming in but it's a good thing. Wow food was here quick, yummy. We enjoyed everything! Order combo with 3 meats, chopped bbq, ribs, chopped brisket, beans & red slaw, hush puppies, & side of jalapeño hush puppies Red wagon plate for my kid. Excellent! My husband said the chopped brisket was ok. I think most of the food is made in house even the chips! Crunchy, less salt and great. Servers are nice & smiling, clean table, seats, floor. Outdoor seats for summer time. Mtn view is lovely. Glad we came!!!
