Holy Smoke Texas Style BBQ

Good and quick service. Lots of gluten free options and all very good!

Hefty prices for good portions of bland food. Everyone in our group had some complaint about the food: brisket was super dry and bland, pork was too smoky, potato had no flavor and was chalky (starchy), and the Mac n cheese was oddly mushy with chunky cheese. For $38, I ordered one small fountain drink cup (unlimited free refills) and two Spud Buds each with no slaw, two orders of Mac n cheese inside, and brisket. They were out of beans, so I couldn’t add those in. The only thing that was tasty was the Mac n cheese, but like I mentioned it was chunky cheese. Potato and brisket were dry and bland. I tried using their sauces to make it more flavorful, but they were all just variations of barbecue sauce with varying spice levels. The bottles said Regular, Spicy, Hot, and Ghost Pepper, so I thought they may have been buffalo sauces of the sort but they were all just barbecue sauce variants. Everyone else in my group kinda felt “eh” about the food. Nothing extraordinary by any means. So I’m giving 2 stars primarily because of the food, but the service was a bunch of young near-teens that seemed like they didn’t wanna be there lol. Gluten free options are offered. No military discount offered. Atmosphere was alright—cool decorations and signs around with plenty of seating which was nice. There was also plenty of parking outside as well. For bathrooms: there’s one door that leads to a single-person restroom separately for men and women. Overall, I’d never choose this place again due to the lacking taste of food that’s surprisingly expensive. Barbecue should be juicy, messy to eat, and filling! This was almost tasteless :/
