The Smoke Shop BBQ – Seaport

About

This Seaport outpost of The Smoke Shop BBQ brings competition-style barbecue from World Barbecue Champion chef Andy Husbands to a group-friendly restaurant and event venue. Slow-cooked platters of burnt ends, pork ribs, Texas hot links and brisket come with sides such as sweet and spicy coleslaw and collard greens, served with family-style hospitality that aims to recall favorite barbecues of the past for diners and visiting groups alike.

Husbands developed the concept over more than two decades of competing, planning and research, along with nearly 30 years cooking in Boston. Beyond the food, the bar pours from a list of nearly 250 American whiskeys, along with craft beer and cocktails specific to each location. Groups can book the space for celebrations, or bring the barbecue to them through catering that can include smoking on site with a Lang smoker.
