Smitty's Market Reviews
Smitty’s has slipped. Brisket was dry; having to pay for pickles, onions, etc. is irritating. The competition around the state — around Central Texas, in fact — is passing Smitty’s by.
Took my visiting sister and her husband to Smitty’s , the walls are black with smoke, fires were ablaze , air was heavy with the smell of cooking meat and what looked like post oak . We had ribs , sausages and brisket that was cooked to perfection . I couldn’t have made a better impression of true Texas BBQ !
This is the 3rd time we have visited Smitty's. Awesome food. Old fashioned ambiance. Delicious food!

Smitty's Market is a renowned barbecue destination, celebrated for its delicious food and unique dining experience. The menu features a variety of options, and many customers praise the quality of the meals. This restaurant has an old-school Texas BBQ atmosphere, with an open fire pit that creates a smoky and nostalgic ambiance. Customers can enter from the front or back and navigate the space on their own, watching as the meat is cut next to the flaming fireplaces.
The sausage and brisket are particularly noteworthy. The brisket has received comments for being fall-apart juicy and very smoky, while the sausage is often described as "legendary." Other popular items include pork ribs, pork chops, and turkey, all infused with a robust smoky flavor. The sides, such as pickles and jalapeños, are also well-received, although some customers do not order many sides.
While the dining experience may not be suitable for everyone due to the lack of utensils and plates, as well as the potential for long wait times and a hot, smoky environment, many customers find the overall experience to be unique and enjoyable. The friendly staff and the opportunity to witness the meat preparation process add to the overall charm of Smitty's Market. The smell of post oak upon entry is also a highlight for many visitors, enhancing the overall experience.
