“Dishes are not consistent. My meatloaf was burned so badly they put a lot of BBQ sauce on it to cover it up. This was done despite the fact that I requested no sauce. Next time I requested one blackened whiting dish and was given fried whiting.“

“Chef Monique & her team provide a culinary experience for your soul! The food we catered (Mac & cheese, greens & cabbage mix, along with jerk salmon) were all delicious with the perfect amount of heat. The dishes were beautifully presented for us upon pick-up to warm easily for our gathering with specific warming instructions to prevent drying out. Our family appreciated the hands that prepared our feast. Chef Mo goes out of her way to make sure details are met with a smile! I would highly recommend everything on the menu.
Thanks Chef Mo & your Team! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽“

“We had to come back and update this review.
because this place is absolutely to the moon.
I mean their seasonings there is airtight.

Meat has the right crispiness.
even their kale we tried we didn’t know what we were going to think and feel about it; —
Just because we’re particular about Kayle—and also because (and pardon the side tracked statement) we hadn’t met anything as good as a soul food spot in Brooklyn with their crispy kale version—; until KB’s BBQ Smokehouse kale 🥬 wow
The texture choices of KB’s preparation 🤩
I mean they get it!!
They understand nailing down some of the most undisputed flavor profiles. And I am not saying there are not other dives whom doesn’t get it as do KB’s —so as You run into them please come here and let us know!!!

I mean KB’s chef understands important little techniques as cleaning Your meat,
And probably in lemon/lime and/or vinegar or other such citrus based marinade solutions—
Why do I say this—You can taste the difference in their meat 🥩, on top of their specific marinade flavor profile! Whatever their using. Might be a pesto based typed marinade who knows!!
All I know is You guys and gals gotta report there!
😋 go ahead and check ‘em out.

Thank You🙏🏻 KB’s BBQ SmokeHouse for continued excellence.“
