"We were looking for good barbecue and we found it! The atmosphere was perfect for a smoke house and the food was very good. We will be going back and recommending Smokestack to others as well."

"The Bar-B-Que food was good, baby back ribs very good, beef brisket went well with the sauces provided in the pail on the table. The barbeque chicken was dried out, that might be a new process, but it was hard to eat. Overall, a good meal and good service."

"Great food- friendly service! The ribs were fabulous and the best part was it did not come with the BBQ sauce on it. I hate ribs that are loaded with BBQ sauce as I prefer to put it on myself. The hamburgers are also delicious- meaty and fresh.
Would come back again if in the Worcester area"
