It had been years since my last visit to Bombers, but they absolutely came through for us with a…read moreMother's Day pickup order. We ordered the Black Bullet party pack which comes with two pounds of brisket and two large sides. We went with fries and beans, and also added ribs, mac and cheese, and buns to the order. The brisket is still the star of the show. The spice rub on it is perfect, and it's so tender that it's unreal. The fries are exactly the kind of battered fries I like which was a pleasant surprise because I feel like not many places do them that way. The beans were okay... a little sweeter than I personally prefer, but they had huge chunks of pork in them that I definitely appreciated. We also added two slabs of ribs, and they fell right off the bone. I'm usually not a huge ribs person, but these were well cooked and flavorful. Mom loved them, and that's what really matters. We did have a few small issues with the order. We realized that our mac and cheese was unfortunately missing when we got home. They also ran out of pretzel buns midway through packing things up, so we ended up with a mix of pretzel and brioche buns instead. Honestly, we didn't mind that one too much because it gave us a chance to try both (I'd pick pretzel if I were you). When we picked up the order the place was absolutely packed, so it was hard to be upset over an honest mistake. They were clearly incredibly busy. I still don't really care for the sweeter sauce that tastes heavily like peppers to me, but their vinegar-based sauce (which I think is their original?) was much better than I remember. I'm glad to see this place is still around and still holds up after all this time. More importantly, the brisket is every bit as good as I remembered.

I have driven by this place dozens of times since moving to the area and we finally visited. Man, I was missing out! Smokey's is some legit BBQ! It is cash only and even has a sign available for when they run out of that day's barbecue. The pulled pork was perfect and my wife and kids enjoyed their platter of brisket and pulled pork. Traditional sides include homemade coleslaw, baked beans, rolls and potatoes. Everything was fresh and delicious! I also enjoyed a cup of their brisket vegetable soup with my pulled pork sandwich. The sauce options were equally good, including sweet BBQ, hot mustard, mild sauce and hot sauce. Also loved seeing a sign from Kid Rock's visit declaring the "best little grub shack this side of Detroit." We will definitely be coming back and I highly recommend Smokey's to anyone visiting the area. They also offer carry out, so perfect for taking back to your campsite at the Dunes!

We got the sliced brisket, pulled pork sandwich, cornbread, and mac and cheese, and everything was excellent. The meats were smoky, flavorful, and really satisfying, with that rich barbecue flavor that makes you want to keep going back for another bite. The mac and cheese was especially delicious and easily one of the highlights of the meal. The atmosphere is also a big part of what makes this place stand out. It has a cool, casual vibe that makes it great for hanging out with friends, grabbing a laid back meal, or bringing people from out of town who want a memorable Chicago food spot. It was also a really nice bonus that they offer unlimited soda refills, which made the meal even better. The portions were generous, everything felt well worth the price, and the whole experience lived up to expectations. Definitely a spot I'd gladly come back to again.

Unfortunately, they have not been set up properly and don't have all options available (I wanted to order a single link on the side and this option was not available on the kiosk). A worker there offers to take my order on his register instead. On the kiosk, the Oxtail dinner is supposed to come with two sides. It wasnt until after I got home that I realized I only received one side and it was sitting DIRECTLY under my oxtail - no separate compartment or container. Now my oxtails and bread are covered in cabbage juice and I didn't even get my other side. Manager at the restaurant simply offers an apology, stating that's how they do it, with no other type of remedy. Oxtail dinners only come with 1 side . $40 plus for this. Never again! *3rd pic taken about an hour after I left. I did not reheat it. Simply wanted to show how much fat hadn't even been trimmed off them thangs . *

When I walked in no one was at the counter, but someone came towards the counter about 5 mins which gave me time to look over the menu. I ordered Chicken Wings and Turkey Tips. They told me it would be about 20 mins. So, I decided to drive home since this place is close. On my drive home I looked at the reciept and noticed that they rung me up for regular rib tips. I gave a call and the person just said Hello. No Professional greeting. I informed them that I wanted turkey tips and not rib tips and they let me know that they were sold out of turkey tips. I let them know I wouldn't be able to eat them, and they took care of the situation. The chicken wings were good, but the sauce was the star. I enjoyed it. The Customer service was okay, and the food was okay. I am still interested in getting some turkey tips so I will try again.
