Take a long sip of fine Kentucky Bourbon and let the smokehouse aroma of slow cooked barbecue transport you south of the Mason Dixon. Oak & Embers proprietors spent years researching southern cuisine to offer you this experience. Their many trips to the Carolina’s, Georgia and Kentucky have brought to life an idea born from their love for great barbecue.The Oak & Embers menu offers homemade selections prepared from scratch. Great care goes into the preparation of each entrée. Brisket, pork, ribs, sausage and chicken are wood-smoked for hours to heighten flavor and texture—pink, tender meat is proof of the process. Lighter fare options include salads and flatbreads prepared with unique taste combinations to offer an escape from the mundane. Each entrée and side dish is cooked to order from recipes created from years of tasty research. Our unique sauces, rubs and dressings are original and thoughtfully combined to complement each featured entrée.

    This was my first time dining at Oak and Embers Tavern in Hudson. Our waitress Britt was excellent and patient. We had a party of four and all of our food was on point should have taken pictures but we dove right in and didn't get a chance to! Highly recommend- hard to make a decision on the menu items they all look amazing. Happy hour is every day 3:00 to 6:00 That's definitely a game changer. Must try the burnt ends, chicken wings, they were delicious! Their special cornbread is definitely on point! They do offer outside seating but it was so hot we ate inside. Very spacious and plenty of parking. Highly recommend and yes I will be returning with my husband!

    Our party of 4 went to Landmark Smokehouse for brunch. We had the Brisket Hash, Burrito, Pulled Pork Sandwich and the Brisket sandwich. The food was delicious and everyone cleaned their plate. Landmark also has a great Bourbon selection that is reasonably priced. We had to sample some. Our waiter was really good. Overall a great experience.
