I discovered SMB in 2020 and have been a fan since! The food is good and the people are great. It's probably the only place in Ashe County that I can get two meals for <$20.

Usually, this place is the best around, but this time, the broasted chicken they are famous for was mushy. All the sides were cold. Got there at dinner time, not too early or too late.

What an amazing place and amazing staff I’m a tractor trailer driver from PA passing through after I picked up a load of beautiful local Christmas trees I googled local bbq places and this popped up immediately and I just knew it was gonna be exactly what I was wanting an official real bbq spot and I tell u on everything I love in this world my expectations were blown out of this realm I could literally taste the love and passion they put into their bbq!! The best rack of ribs I’ve ever eaten fried chicken was excellent also I had Mac n cheese beans and hush puppies which I was educated on today that they are actually corn bread which I loved and topped it all off with a slice of lemon meringue and a sweet tea thank you owners and staff for showing me what real bbq is. God bless and I will see u again for sure I highly recommend this spot high level bbq

Although the dining room is closed, it's still worth going through the drive-through to get their delicious meals!
We have found a new favorite place to eat! The food here is great and the people are friendly.

Not sure why people are giving bad reviews because the dining room isn't open? The food is exactly the same lol.Food is great for the price, I'd give the barbeque 8.5/10, not the best I've had but definitely good for what you pay, especially considering how much you get. Feels like a down home southern restaurant with no grills, you get exactly what you ask for. If you're looking for a tasty barbeque plate on the cheap, look no further.

Need to open the dining area. I know help is hard to find, but it would be nice. However, the BBQ is some of the best I've ever tasted. It's worth the wait.
Drive through only. Friendly, quick. Food was good.

You can only go thru drive thru now but some of the best BBQ I've eaten and fried chicken is delicious. Anytime we are in West Jefferson, we get food from there.

My wife and I have wanted to try this place for years now. Occasionally we will drive past it and remember it is there. Finally we made the trip and I am glad to report that we had a fantastic experience. Granted the inside isn't open likely due to being short staffed. However, everyone was very polite and the drive through wait was perfect on such a slow day. We ate on the porch which is still open to customers. The Food was everything we wanted it to be. Flavorful, great portions and in the bags was everything we could of needed including two different sauces for the bbq. By the way, that barbecue based sauce was fantastic and leaned a bit more towards eastern style (which is my preference of course)...great mix. Altogether, a great experience. Sweet tea was great. Can't forget to mention that the prices are more than fair givin these times. We will be returning. Thank you SMB!Parking: Lots of room for business. Bring the crowd

We love going to West Jefferson. Even bought a second home there. What they really need is a good BBQ restaurant. This is the only one and I hate BBQ passed through a window.

The fried chicken is something else and worth the wait. I will come back the next time I am there.
