Inside this beautiful place
Lori J.

This restaurant is so clean. The service is excellent. The food was fabulous. The manager Daisy personally greeted us asked us how our food was. This was an amazing experience for my family. We really highly recommend the barbecue here. It's excellent.

Three meat plate plus an extra side
Kseniya K.

Your typical Texan fast casual bbq joint. Nothing extraordinary to brag about, but a decent enough meal if you're starving. Prices and menu options are on par with all the other bbq places all over Texas, no surprises or standouts here. The two meat and Three meat plates are not a lot of food. Very little, in fact, comparatively to other such businesses. I was hungry an hour later. Meats were bland and mediocre. Pork loin was the better option, followed by ribs, followed by brisket. Sides were okay--it's difficult to screw up coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Creamed corn tasted like dessert--so sweet, I was wondering how much sugar was dumped into that. Staff are accommodating and service is quick. Not a place I'd return to. There are tons of similar restaurants that offer better food.

Got 1 lbs of brisket, 1/2 lbs of turkey and 1/2 lbs of sausage. The brisket and turkey were very good, smoky and flavorful. The sausage I did not really like. The skin was very tough and the sausage had just a peppery flavor. The service was fast and staff was friendly and courteous and smiling when interacting with us. Our three meats and a brisket baked potato came to just under $60 with no drinks or sides. Will have to try again in the near future and get a combo plate to try some sides.

Sad brisket and egg taco
Reuben M.

Came here this morning to get breakfast tacos for the fam. I was really let down. The tortillas were cold, and the brisket and egg tacos were super sad. I can see why this place is not that busy on a Saturday morning. They really should have as many customers or more than Shipleys next door. The refried beans and cheese tacos were soaked in straight cooking grease. The only reason they get a one star today is their coffee is average and hot. The employees were not friendly at all. I'll continue to make my own breakfast.

Lean Brisket Jalapeno Sausage Pork Ribs Pinto Beans Potato Salad Sweet Tea

Amazed to have BBQ this tasty in Kyle!! I ordered a 3 meat plate that came with two sides: lean brisket, jalapeño sausage, pork ribs, potato salad and pinto beans and HOLY MOLLY WAS IT GOOD!! I tried both the Smokey MO's TX BBQ Original and Spicy sauce and I'm telling you what - perfection! The customer service was pleasant and helpful. The restaurant is clean and offers outside patio seating! I can't believe I hadn't been here before! 3 Meat Plate

Breakfast Taco with bacon and egg
Toni S.

Update-still love the breakfast but not the best bbq. The service was great. Staff was very friendly and the restaurant was clean. The brisket & chopped bbq was good. The pork ribs tasted old and stale. I don't think I will try those again. The slaw and green beans were ok as well. I will stick with the breakfast or stick with the brisket.

Brisket, sausage, green beans, potato salad
Hong M.

Smokey Mo's is great, reasonably priced bbq. What makes it even better is that it's in the neighborhood, close to home so there's no need to fight traffic driving into town for a great meal. The dining room is fresh and comfortable for dining in. Meat is perfectly done and portions are sizable. And there are several options for sides. The green beans, potato salad, Mac-n-cheese are all great!

Two 2 Meat Plate
Taylor G.

I would say Smokey Mo's BBQ is just alright. The concept is super similar to Rudy's (ie decent chain barbecue) but I wasn't wowed by it. I had a 2 meat plate with brisket and sausage, green beans and pinto beans. Wouldn't order the green beans again, but the pinto beans and meat were decent. The service was as good as you'd expect for counter service and the new shop was pretty nice (& clean).

Love the brisket here. It ghastly a dry rub that's a little spicy. Just gives it a well needed kick.

Hands-down, the best barbecue spot we've ever been to. We…read morehad the brisket, which was packed with flavor and perfectly juicy. At first, we weren't sure what to order since it was our first time, but the owner kindly offered us a rib sample--and wow, that sealed the deal. We ended up ordering the ribs, and they were absolutely phenomenal. We also tried the twice-baked potato, which quickly became my favorite. The potato salad and mac & cheese were both delicious as well--comfort food done right. Everyone was very nice! The atmosphere was great! I still can't get over how incredible those ribs were. Next time we're in San Marcos, there's no question--we'll be stopping by again.

Came here on a Sunday for lunch. This is completely outdoors only and they're technically a food…read moretruck. It was pretty empty when we got there but filled in as time went on. Nice thing about them was they gave us samples when we were curious about an item on their menu. Their brisket was excellent. It was seasoned just right, not too fatty (you can request to get the fat cut off too if you want) and tender. You can order pork ribs by number of ribs instead of weight strictly. Their hatch Mac n cheese was fire. They add jalapenos to it and it was very creamy. Their beans had bits and pieces of brisket in them as well. Overall, a great BBQ place. Was just a bit uncomfortable sitting outside to eat on a toasty summer day.
