Haywood Smokehouse is a popular spot for pickup or outdoor dining, serving up delicious barbecue with large portions. Located in a unique old house in Waynesville, it offers a special atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. Their signature strawberry chipotle sauce and beans with actual pork are highly recommended. The three-meat platter featuring Ribs, brisket, and pulled pork is a highlight, often enjoyed with sides like collard greens, string beans, Mac and cheese, and burnt-end baked beans. The meals are praised for their flavor and tenderness, especially the brisket and the chopped pork, which have a deep smoke flavor. The smoked sausage has a nice pop and melts in the mouth, and the baked beans are simple but flavorful, with no extra ingredients to take away from the taste. Desserts like Banana pudding and pecan cobbler are also popular. The friendly staff, led by an upbeat manager who ensures everything is to your liking, along with quick service—where servers often offer tastings of different sauces—make for a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant's ample parking and welcoming atmosphere add to its appeal, making it a great choice for barbecue lovers passing through. Though the outdoor seating area could use some improvement, it does not detract from the overall experience, ensuring many customers will return.
