Smokehouses near Asheville, NC

“Shorties is an exceptional establishment. The management and staff have warmly welcomed a member of our community with disabilities and provided them with employment opportunities. The premises are immaculately maintained, and their commitment to cleanliness is evident in every aspect. The sanitation rating outside does not accurately reflect the high standards upheld within. I have personally observed the staff preparing food, adhering to strict hygiene practices, and regularly monitoring food temperatures. The health department should consider conducting an updated review to reflect the actual quality of this establishment. Shorties demonstrated its commitment to the local community during the recent Helene crisis. The business is now under new ownership and is striving to establish itself as a reputable name. I highly recommend trying their delicious menu, which features quality barbecue!!!“

“Phenomenal food, awesome atmosphere, amazing service! 10/10. Highly recommend!!!“

“not a bad place, went there for a Halloween party the band was awesome just wish they can judge costumes in a different way instead of having the crowd make the judgment but other then that I had a good time and it was fun.“

“Love it. Walked in this afternoon and was greeted by a very friendly bartender that took awesome care of us. After a couple of samples from a broad selection we settled in on some beers and went next door to order some Q, which was in itself excellent. Anyway, great time and will be back next time I'm in Arden.“
