FINALLY! Real Texas BBQ outside of San Antonio and Austin!…read more I knew from my very first sip of sweet tea that this place was going to nail it! And right out front, they proudly display their TWO smokers! Now that's respect for the increasingly lost art of real barbecue smoking! I ordered the Hickory Sausage, Brisket, Potato Salad, and Cornbread. The Brisket: Top-notch! Beautiful texture, incredible smoke flavor, and that delicious bark on top! You know brisket is done right when the smoky flavor travels right up the back of your nose as you chew. That's REAL BBQ! The Hickory Sausage: Every bit as impressive. Perfectly smoked, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The Potato Salad: Tasty, beautifully balanced, and the perfect complement to all that smoky meat. THE CORNBREAD! Finally, cornbread in Newh England that's actually PROUD TO BE CORNBREAD! Too many places up here make what amounts to a flour cake with a smidgen of cornmeal thrown in. Not here! Perfect texture, wonderful density, and that unmistakable CORN flavor. Outstanding! Our other plate featured Pork Belly and Pulled Pork. Again, beautifully smoked, tender, and full of flavor. The baked beans were terrific, and so was the coleslaw! Having lived in Texas and enjoyed some of the finest barbecue in San Antonio and Austin, I know what great Texas BBQ should taste like. This place does TEXAS BBQ JUSTICE! And coming from this Texas BBQ lover, that's one heck of a compliment!

Luckily they still had 90% of the menu still in stock but I would try to avoid the lunch rush next time. The staff were so friendly and gave some samples of things we were interested in. The ordering process is a little slow but everyone seemed to be having a good time. The seating area is large and have all the things you need to pack up your leftovers. The food was also great! Definitely hit the spot when you're craving some bbq. Favorites were the brisket and beef cheek. The sides in the sampler plate are also generous and was plenty for 3 people.

I saw he cut a piece of brisket from 2 different slabs ... one slice was drier than the other . Brisket was very good., must have been using up the dry slab .. so I got one moist, one drier Ribs were decent , but not much meat on them. Banana pudding, I didn't taste any banana but a-lot of cream . Baked beans were very good and great taste, but twice the size I needed . I thought all was expensive for 47.75 with no drink . I do not see returning based on price and quantity. See my plate in pic and be your judge. They need to offer combo plates. More hype than substance ; maybe NH doesn't have many options for bbq like Massachusetts and they must have a lot of money in wallets .

I enjoyed my trip to the Shak. The place is quite literally in its name. Tiny food truck/shack off…read morea dirt driveway. There's some tables and chairs set out with a house behind it. The owner was very pleasant, friendly, and accommodating. He clearly cares about his product and truly tries his best to deliver the best bbq possible. He let us sample the items we ordered, and had a lot of sauce options to choose from. The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. With that said, if you're used to the BBQ being pulled right off the smoker like I am, then this may not be the spot for you. What threw me off was heating it up in a pan. Again, although it had plenty of flavor, I missed that grilled char/smoke. The owner has been doing it this way for a long time, so I know it's a local favorite, just not the type of bbq I would prefer. I wasn't fond of the sides as well (cornbread, beans, mac & cheese, potato salad). They could be great for someone else - just not what I'm used to. Lastly, I wish there was a sampler platter to choose from as the overall cost was fairly high, around $70 which gave us a ton of food leftover. Overall, I'm glad I experienced it, but may look for other bbq spots next time.

Our food came out in a reasonable time. I got the wrong order which they immediately fixed. It was…read moreso quiet we felt like we couldn't talk at normal volume or everyone would hear us, they should put some music on. The collard greens and the baked beans were straight up bad. I tried to eat them because I was hungry but I couldn't. Our cornbread, coleslaw and mac n cheese were all fine. The brisket and the pulled pork were fine but for the price I was expecting something a lot more special. It is frustrating when you pay over $50 (Two plates) for something I could've made in my crockpot at home. There is way better BBQ in New Hampshire.

This was a great find on my trip to New Hampshire…read more The half cowboy platter was fantastic. It would have been plenty of food for 2 people. The ribs were great, tender and well sauced. The Pulled Pork was wonderful, not too dry and not sloppy wet, just perfect. I wish I had asked for some of their other BBQ sauces to try on it. The brisket was my favorite, cooked just right and not too dry, with a nice rub on it. The macaroni and cheese was awesome, extra gooey and great flavor. The cornbread was huge, but was a bit too dry for me. I didn't love the West Coast IPA. But, what was I thinking, ordering a West Coast on the East Coast? My bad. It was listed as an IPA, but I have the sneaking suspicion it was a Double IPA, which isn't my favorite style because I don't love the residual sweetness necessary to balance out the heat. So, if you like Double IPAs, you may love it.

The grapefruit IPA was incredible, and their whiskey and bourbon selection was seriously impressive. I ordered a few appetizers, including the fried green beans, and everything was yummy. My only small critique is that I wish there had been a chicken option instead of pork belly for one of the dishes. Service at the bar was fine, nothing particularly memorable, but the atmosphere and drink selection definitely made up for it. I'd absolutely come back for the drinks, food, and overall vibe!

I know it isn't on the menu but some people just want a simple sandwich. I have been to many restaurants that although they did not have a BLT in rhe menu were very willing to make one when they had all the ingredients. Second, a lack of onion rings. I was very surprised they didn't offer them here especially after seeing them in pictures online. The restaurant itself is cute and cozy and the staff is definitely very good at what they do. I wish they had more booths and regular seating but I think they do good for the space they have. The fries are delicious and the tacos I had were amazing! Hubs had the next to hottest sauce on his chicken tenders and was disappointed as he felt it lacked flavor. I tried a small bite and had to agree. You could barely taste the sauce. I told him he should ask for a side so he could dip it but he just used the ranch. Other things tried were lobster roll and pulled pork sandwich and korean street tacos. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of everything, but I'm sure we will be back.

Maybe the cook was inexperienced, but it took about 40-50min to get our meals as well. Too bad... really enjoyed the atmosphere and meals at the previous location but won't be going back anymore.

Wowza! These guys nailed how slow smoked BBQ should always taste! Me and my boyfriend tried some…read morefrom KillKenny's Pub where J.R. Smokey's put up their pig smoker for St. Patty's Day. The servings were huge, served with fresh coleslaw, and their homemade spicy, sweet barbeque sauce (sooo good). Let me tell you about the meat though. The meat was tender, moist, with just the right amount of smoke flavor and falling off the bone. Also I'm pretty certain that the pig is locally farm raised makes it premium meat that tastes so much better than big box store pork of course. I regret not getting more of it as it was gone faster than I expected when we brought it home! We even had a friend over who was just supposed to try a couple bites, well...she couldn't stop. She had a whole servings worth even though she had claimed that she was too full from eating before she came over. It was so mouth watering she just couldn't stop herself from taking another bite, then another and another- lol. I'm seriously looking forward to and dreaming about the time I get to eat some more of their smoked BBQ. I'll literally be drooling about it until then. I'm really not lying when I say it is the BEST BBQ I think I've ever tasted.
