Smoke BBQ
Thinking about hitting up Smoke BBQ in Covington for the first time this weekend.
Has anyone been yet? Suggestions? Tips?

I'm curious as well. I've been wanting to go but I keep missing out because of their hours and not being open on Sunday.

I went a couple of weekends ago and it was packed.
The smoke fries were damn good. Imagine cheese fries with burnt ends.
The brisket was not good. It was wet as if it had been kept in some sort of liquid which meant no bark and no real flavor. Considering how smokey and perfect the burnt ends on the fries were, I was very surprised with that brisket.
A buddy who has been many times said he thinks the pork and ribs are good options over the brisket.

Those fries do look damn good.
And the brisket, was there any sliced?

I wonder if I could substitute the burnt ends for pulled pork.

That was the sliced brisket. I'm not sure why it was like that. Here's a comparison picture from McClure's today and is what I expect brisket to look like:

It's not on the menu, but that seems easy enough for them to make. Pulled pork fries are amazing.

Just hit up smoke. Would give it a 7/10. We ordered as much variety as we could to try everything.
Meats:
Brisket - Good flavor, but not much bark and a tad dry. Not a noticeable smoke ring.
Chicken - Some of the best smoked chicken I have ever had. Great rub and moist.
Ribs - Big but very salty.
Pulled Pork - Good flavor as well but a bit dry.
Sides:
Collared Greens - Good and a bit sweet.
Mac - Not baked but creamy.
Beans - Best side by far.
Potato Salad - Standard.
Cole Slaw - Sweet.
Fried Okra - Good light fry batter.
Would go back and try the sausage, wings and Smoke Fries since that seems to be the only way to get some of the best part of the brisket.

If they are serving customers beyond noon, then they're already better than NOLA Smokehouse
