Great BBQ seasoning, sauces, food and decor!
I will have to compare this to another BBQ restaurant around the area. Its good, but not I would recommend first. We got the Sampler platter: Chicken, Brisket, Ribs.
Brisket was warm, not hot, not very juicy or soft. The Ribs were great, saved by the sauce. Chicken was good, misus said its like pollo loco.
The place had plenty of patrons, but they were lacking server attention, the utencils were not stocked which was my only criticism. Overall, it was good BBQ!

Good food, fast service, reasonable prices, portions are just right.

Holy Smoke | Texas Style BBQ offers Texas-style BBQ in Bishop, CA. The brisket, tri tip, and pork are incredibly tender, with some finding the meat flavorful while others wish for more smoke flavor. The chopped brisket sandwich and half chicken are good options. Sides receive mixed feedback. The mac and cheese is flavorful, creamy, and perfectly seasoned for some, but others find it okay and not baked. The potato salad is absolutely delicious, and the cornbread is pretty good. However, some reviewers found the sides laughably small for the $28 sampler platter price, with undercooked beans. The sauces are decent, with the ghost pepper sauce providing a big spice kick but tasting like jelly. Service is kind, nice, and prompt. Parking is limited to 10-12 spaces, with community-style seating. While some call it the best BBQ on the 395 and worth a 300-mile round trip, others find it a disappointing experience and would rather drive elsewhere. Prices are considered reasonable by some, but not worth it by others.
