“Try the smoked burger ”
Review of Smokin' Bar-B-Que - CLOSED

Smokin' Bar-B-Que

Restaurant details
Reviewed 18 December 2014 via mobile

I have lived in Dayton for a while but never tried this restaurant. I'll definitely be gong back, though. The smoked burgers are great--really unique. There's limited seating. It's more of a lunch counter. Still, if you're in downtown Dayton, check it out.

While it's a small place and does not look like much, the food is awesome. Definitely try the smoked burgers especially if you have never tried one. There is a WIDE variety of meats to choose from including the usual pork and chicken, but also fish. It's all counter seating and fairly small, so avoid it during peak dining times, but it is definitely worth stopping.

The best brisket east, west, north or south of Kansas City (where I'm from).
Some folks just don't have a good idea of what great brisket is supposed to be like. Jim smokes it low and slow and it doesn't get dried out like most folks are used to in brisket. A good pink smoke ring lends to its authenticity. Chopped or slice, it is outstanding!
The pulled pork is also great. Jim smokes chicken and burgers as well. He even does whole or part turkeys for Thanksgiving,.
Stop by; you'll come back.

A coworker took me here on my trip to Dayton; he said I had to try this place.

Joe and the rest of the staff are great - a relaxed atmosphere and good chatter. But the food! Delicious doesn't exactly cover it. This is a place for the record books - quickly made , tasty and flavorful. Well done!

Great friendly staff. . open until 4am on weekends. My only complaint was the beef brisket was lacking texture. Real mushy. Like it was from the crock pot.
