About Blue Ember Smokehouse

Blue Ember Smokehouse is a BBQ joint that offers a decent dining experience. The space is smaller but clean and tidy, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The menu features a variety of smoked meats, including turkey, burnt ends, sausage, pulled pork, and brisket. The sides, such as potato salad, slaw, green beans, baked beans, baked potato, and fried okra, are described as standard but very good. The standout dish is the lightly breaded fried okra, which allows the vegetable to shine. While the turkey is solid, the burnt ends were a disappointment, lacking the crispy char and melt-in-your-mouth texture desired. The restaurant's sauces are noted as being very sweet, even the spicy option. The pulled pork sandwich and brisket sandwich are praised for being tender, juicy, and having lots of meat, with the brisket sandwich served on a soft, toasted bun. The portions are large, and the atmosphere is friendly and inviting. Overall, Blue Ember Smokehouse provides a satisfying BBQ experience with friendly staff and good food, and it is a favorite spot in Little Rock.

Robinson Middle School Quiz Bowl team felt so welcomed and accommodated by the staff for a Monday night parents v kids match in the NO FEE private room (must book in advance).

We just had Blue Ember’s catered meal at the Aloft Hotel event today and it was delicious! We have been there often since they opened in our area and like their food, their friendliness, and their location! Thanks for another good meal. We are glad you guys are here.

Went today for the first time. Great food. Had the pulled pork sandwich, baked beans and fried okra. Had enough leftovers to take home for another meal. My husband and I will split a meal next time. Great customer service, too.
