CR Midnight Smoker BBQ

a friend told me about this place. so gf and I hopped on the motorcycle for a lunch ride. pork belly sample was definitely on point ,tender juice, and full of flavor.. I got the brisket mac bowl. was delicious brisket was ful of flavor not heavy smoke taste.. gf had pull chicken she said it was really good. had lots of flavor.

The BBQ pork sandwich is really good and the beef brisket sandwich was good but maybe a little more fatty than I like. BBQ beans good, the potato salad was different. I like selection of BBQ sauces. I'd go back. 2 sandwiches, 2 sides and 2 tap waters was $28
Love the atmosphere. Very clean and nice vibe.

We ate here, for the first time, tonight. Our food was absolutely delicious! I am very particular about fat. Our meats (burnt ends & pulled pork) were very lean. Our sides (smoked beans and slaw) were perfect! Our only wish = corn read. Also, we had to pass on the peach crisp because we were stuffed. We finally found our go-to for great BBQ. ***The awesome young man who greeted us deserves a raise.*** OH! And can we talk about the blueberry-infused sauce? Ohmygosh.

This was our first time here. This staff was very helpful in assisting us to order. I after we set down. The owner was making rounds of visiting with everyone at their tables. The vibe was awesome. The music was relaxing. It was a very fun evening out. We'll be back.

Loved the brisket we got here. Being as there's only 3 of us smoking a brisket is a lot of work and alot doesn't get eaten. Being able to go here and get amazing affordable smoked brisket was a real treat. 10/10 recommend

For my first time being here, the place was great! Everyone was super nice, and the food was delicious. Getting customers opinions on new foods youre thinking of adding is great as well; absolutely love it.
Will be coming back again for sure, and highly recommend everyone to try it out.
