First time having Smokey Mo's and it did not disappoint! It's so conveniently close to our home so it was an easy choice for a quick dinner. I ordered on Yelp and unfortunately by the time my husband arrived for the order they had run out of ribs :( made me sad because I was really looking forward to the ribs. I got chicken & brisket instead for my 2 meat plate. I ordered creamed corn and Mac & cheese. I was very impressed with how flavorful and moist the meats were. It's a chain restaurant so I was skeptical. Happy to say we were all satisfied, other than the fact that they had no ribs! That just means we'll have to return. Our order was ready very quickly too which is a plus! Overall good experience! Definitely recommend! read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - 2 Meat Plate - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

Ordered the 2 meat. Was really looking forward to the burnt ends. We had just seen them on Texas Eats. Got my burnt ends and they were pure fat with burned bbq sauce on them. I brought them back and said they were not edible that they were all fat. He didn't say let me make it right for you he decided to say that's what burnt ends are, Fat. I disagreed and he said what do you think ant me to do? I said can you get me another order? He did and they were all fat again. I said I cannot eat all fat. So I traded it for ribs. They were not "rude" but more of a didn't care attitude. Ribs were good but overall impression was just blah. read more

I just got a delivery from Smokey MO's. Everything is great. The turkey super tender. The brisket is not fatty and the burnt pork belly is to die for. They will not disappoint you. read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - All the meats I ordered are there. A half a pound of each. Brisket, turkey, sausage and pork belly burnt ends. - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

They have added pork burnt ends to the menu, and they are addicting sweet and crispy and tinder as well as their cheddar baked potatoes As always, you can never go wrong with the beef brisket, tender and tasty Nice banana pudding staff is always friendly and love the convenience of the drive-through window read more

This place is close to the house and convenient. The staff is friendly and the dining room is clean. Hence the three stars. I smoke brisket myself so maybe I am a little harsher than most; however, that being said, I ordered the two meat plate with brisket (point not flat) and the jalapeno sausage with potato salad and green beans for the two sides and a sweet tea. I took my seat and started writing a Yelp review while I waited. A reasonable time later, the aluminum tray with my meal was ready. There is something satisfying about eating from a tray. I stopped by the condiment bar then settled in try the protein spread. Brisket first...always. Being from the point end of the brisket, I expected it to be a little more moist. It was dried out. Disappointed, I moved to the jalapeno sausage. Tasty but didn't make up for the brisket. I would never critique another persons brisket. I will say that I like mine with a nice thick and flavorful bark. This one didn't have one; neither did it have a definite smoke flavor. It was good, but when you do this daily, it should be outstanding. The potato salad was tasty and the green beans...well, are green beans. So unfortunately, this was a meal that I will likely not relish to have again. On previous visits with the wife, we typically get the chopped with a couple buns from the drive through. We take the buns home and toast them. The chopped is pretty fantastic. I wish I would have gotten the chopped this time. Bon appetit Yelpers. read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - Brisket (point), jalapeno sausage, potato salad and green beans. - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

The place was clean and the service was good. I was really on the fence deciding between two and three stars. I went with three due to the ribs. Not that they were good but based on the seasoning and so so flavor. So here we go with the same old problem that affects Rudy's. When they smoke the meats they wrap them in plastic and foil to keep, this creating a steam like atmosphere. The meat becomes mushy and not the typical pull you expect from the meat leaving the bone. This also changes the appeal for me. The chicken was better and the Turkey tasted like liquid smoke. To the biggest letdown. The sides. Beans and cole slaw. Both horrible. Beans, I swear are canned and the cole slaw is manufactured. BBQ sauce is again reminiscent of Rudy's sissy sauce. Won't be back. read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - a display of t - shirts - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

Smokey Mo's BBQ - Frito pie. - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

Amazing service and patient young lady taking our order. Brisket is exceptional and the green beans have a delicious flavor I've never experienced, the best ever! Highly recommend this place! read more

The Brisket is super dry don't get it even bill miller brisket is better sausage is not that good as well just save your money

I have been back and forth with Smokey Mo's BBQ. This time I ordered the 1/2 pound of brisket through the drive through. Last order of the brisket was good all around. Nice sliced and all meat. This time it was hunks of meat, burnt ends and lots of fat. A one star performance. Don't know what makes them give me the trash meat one time and the good stuff the next. But IF I ever get foolish enough to go back I am going inside to eat and I will be right there to reject the trash meat. Wish I would have taken a picture of the junk I got. read more

So many other BBQ places around that taste like real BBQ. I was very disappointed when I went there. The location was convenient, but I would rather drive a little farther and get excellent BBQ. read more

I had a craving for some bbq but didn't want to go to a walk-in, sit down kind of thing. I was cruising down hwy 46 and noticed Smokey Mo's AND that drive up window so I did the only thing I could. I did a quick u-turn into oncoming traffic, because when isn't there traffic on 46, and headed into the parking lot and took my place in line. Thankfully there were only two cars in front of me, not because I was famished but because it's a tiny parking lot so there's not much room to maneuver but you'll figure it out and you should because this place is great! I ordered a brisket plate and hubs got a loaded baked potato with chopped brisket. Everything was so delicious, so good in fact that we've put Smokey's on our bbq rotation. We love the food and the fact that it's a quick order at the drive thru and we're on our way. A strong Thumbs-Up read more

Today was a treat. We had several menus items but ordered more to take out once we tasted the fare. Very friendly Manager of the family that started the business. He was on top of his crew and results in the cooking of foods three times a day to keep up with demand in just the drive through! Yup we ate inside and few do I hear as covid scare them to drive through. The ribs succulent and meaty, chicken yummy, sausage great and brisket was a choice between more marbled and lean. We took marbled and the bark was tasty too. Turkey to eat at home. Three sides made us take more of the corn and beans as the potato salad was like home. I must sound like I am raving and I should be as I want information about a franchise in DFW area. This food will be a big hit and competes with local food. Maybe a delivery with Uber to communities like ours there. Yes I have to get these foods in my neighborhood. read more

Excellent service but the portion size versus price left us wondering why so stingy with the meat! Green beans seemed out of a can and the brisket wasn't tender. We won't be back but I can't say don't go, if another BBQ place is closed this one is probably open - gave me a chain restaurant vibe, like Bill Miller's- not bad but not great. read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - They call it 3 meat plate but it's more like 3 meat sampler or 1/3 portion of 3 meats... - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

The lack of consistency kills me here. I have eaten here many times before, and I always get the chop baker. Today was the first time I have ever realized that the meat is not chopped brisket. It is a mixed up conglomeration of pork, turkey, and whatever. Huge chunks of turkey today. I asked what was on top of my potato, as I had never seen it look like that before. The attitude of the dude who was doing the chopping was sad and pathetic. He told me that's how it always is and that is simply how he does it. All the people chopping meat do it their own way. Highly disappointed in this visit. Not entirely sure I would stop again, after years of visiting. read more

Great food. Great service always!! I've always had great bbq from this Bulverde location. Don't forget to try the banana pudding ! read more

Arrived just before 9am on a Monday morning. The restaurant was empty and encompassed in smoke. Ordered a few breakfast tacos, breakfast bowl and biscuits and gravy. I was given a styrofoam cup in leu of the normal plastic reusable cup (for the same ridiculous price.) The sweet tea didn't taste fresh and the sugar had clearly settled to the bottom as my first sip tasted like diabetes in a cup. Asked for our order to go, but was handed a tray with everything on it minus a bag, so opted to eat in person. The brisket was overly salty and disappointing. Biscuits were hard and coffee was no better than to be expected. Overall, customer service was lacking (no one gave as much as a smile, greeted, checked in to see how things were going or thanked us on our way out. read more

Wow! I ordered a 1 meat plate for my wife and a 2 meat for me cause I'm twice her size and I was ready to eat some meat! Can't believe her plate was almost double what 1/2 of my plate was. DONT ORDER A 2 MEAT CAUSE YOU'LL GET SMALLER 1 MEAT PORTIONS. Honestly makes no sense. Oh well . Otherwise we like their food and pick up food there at least once a month. Not mad just disappointed. We just finished our dessert. The bananas inside the banana pudding were old and maybe rotten. Here's a pic. Just not good today. read more

This review is on the Smokey MO's in New Braunfels on 46. I had never eaten at a Smokey MO's before, but I was impressed. This eatery is laid out nicely and is very clean. I was looking for some breakfast and not having much luck, all I could find were the same old fast food places. I saw the breakfast sign in their window and pulled in. I had two breakfast tacos and both were really good. Very soon I'll go back to try some of their barbecue. Keep up the good work! read more

I'll be honest, it was mediocre at best. The expansive price tag did not match the quality of food. We ordered ribs, brisket and sausage as the "meat". Sausage was by far the best followed by the ribs. Brisket IMO was 1 star. The sides were good, buttered potatoes, beans and Mac and cheese. Beans were great, so were the potatoes and the Mac and cheese was again mediocre. They have their own sauce. Original and hot, I think the original had more heat than the hot. To sum it up and bring it home. Definitely not "Texas BBQ" worthy. I'd I could rate it in half stars it would have been 2.5. read more

Their stuffed baked potato is our favorite!! Perfect size meals for kids too!! Loaded Baked is the way to go!!

Would have like to have gotten some onion & pickles. Wasn't a fan of the chopped brisket. The Mac & cheese was very disappointing. Workers were great. read more

Awful! Don't waste your time! Staffis rude! Out of brisket early in evening in middle of week. BBQ place doesn't think you want BBQ??? Save yourself a trip read more

One star for customer service, the girl at the window with the nose piercings was extremely rude. When I pulled up to the drive thru, I asked if I could have a few seconds to look at the menu, she rudely said "let me know when you're ready!" I then started to order and didn't hear anything back. I said hello a few times before deciding to pull up to the window. She opened the window and said "can I help you?" I said "hi yes I just wanted to order" and she said "OK?!" I told her my order, she didn't say anything back, just slammed the window closed. Very rude customer service, we love this place but will choose a different location from now on. read more

Was in the area and stopped by here for a quick lunch. We went here as it was highly recommended but I felt the meat was dry and was only given one small container of sauce that wouldn't even have made up for it. read more

Delicious, consistent quality bbq. Fast, friendly service. Clean, pleasant dining area. Fair prices.

Was a pretty good little bbq place. We had it delivered. Took a little bit of time, but we enjoyed the food!

The brisket along with the sides was tasty. The turkey was delicious, also. I will definitely be back to sample other menu items. It was quick and easy, I ordered online and picked up my order! read more

The barbecue is a little better than most franchise barbecue, but the service is a little lacking, no one should consider that it's primarily staffed with really young people but I haven't got them selves figured out yet much less how to run a business. And make no mistake the kids are running things not the managers. Expect A little longer wait time then you might anticipate and expect a little higher prices than you think. read more

Brisket was so dry I couldn't chew it. Would never eat there again. The BBQ sauce lacked flavor. Wish I had gone to McDonalds.

Smokey Mo's is a cross between fast food bbq and restaurant quality. They have a drive thru which would make me want to come back when I'm in a hurry and looking for some bbq that is better tasting than bill millers. Their macaroni and cheese while quite cheesy needed a little extra seasoning. The iced tea was brewed just right with no too much or little sugar. The pork ribs were seasoned perfectly and were moist. The brisket wasn't bad but it also wasn't memorable. They do have sliced bread but you'll need to ask for it hen picking up your order because they don't automatically add it to the plate. read more

The service is terrible sat in drive thru for 30 still no one has came to window to charge me are even say I will be right with you!!

This is the worst bbq I have ever had. It is cut too thick,very tough, no flavor. Brisket. Just how do you stay open. Stale bread.

Smokey Mo's was a good choice today for not wanting to cook tonight! My first visit so I always buy too much! brisket, turkey and chicken Today for me the best choice was the chicken so moist and flavorful great rub. If the next visit is this good I think we will buy bbq from here every week. Turkey was pretty good too loved the flavor and that little kick. Brisket today little tuff and dry but had good spice. Wife loved the beans clow slaw and Mac and cheese were edible The bread was fresh and soft, pickel slices were crisp and tasty. They do a excellent job of wrapping everything up so nothing spills on the way home. And I like yelling Smokey Mo's when we drive by! Glad I finally stopped in. Good job Ladies read more

The staff here are SO SO nice. Food is amazing too. When they found out it was my birthday, they hooked us up with 3 FREE desserts . So nice of them! read more

Smokey Mo's BBQ - Desserts - Barbeque Near Me - Spring Branch, Texas

It's exorbitant. Ribs are just ok. Brisket is good however. Again the price makes it not worth doing.

Their meats are good but their sides are horrible. I wish they would get that part of their game together. It prohibits us from going there. The sides are just ridiculously horribele. read more

When nobody wants to cook, we pick up brisket & sausage to take home(get brownie pts with the wife). The help always takes great care of us & loads us up with sauce, bread, pickles, and onoins. This place is not one of my top 5, but is a heck of a lot closer than any of them. That's not a knock, because it's still really good. Well, I better go pick up my order. read more

Customer service terrible!!! Out of so many things when we ordered. We waited 5 mins in drive thru. Finally backed out and went in. This probably why we don't come here a lot. Miss B Daddy's. Better BBQ better customer service!!! ****Update since I was standing there waiting for our food. They called me over and said we ran out of turkey sorry. So no turkey, no buttered potatoes. Behind the counter was disaster. We left and probably won't be back read more

Very disappointed. There was a dirty diaper below the drive up window and the window platform was filthy. Called back to let the manager Josh know that the was not correct his explanation was that they were training people. Drive up window was unsanitary and order incomplete. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! read more
