If you’re a born and raised southerner, you know your barbeque and you like it done right! At Midwood Smokehouse, their pitmasters have perfected the art of deliciously tender barbeque… my mouth is watering just typing this! Midwood Smokehouse was started based on the foundation of serving real, quality food with excellent service. Their time honored traditions are what give them an edge over all of the other guys – their pitmasters burn hickory wood 24 hours a day, seven days a week to create that perfect finger-lickin’ taste!

Want to know one of their secrets? To avoid cooking ribs until the meat becomes ‘fall-off-the-bone’ tender. <Gasp> Executive Chef Paul Cruz explains that if you’re meat falls off the bone, they’re overcooked. To create that perfect rack of ribs he says you should cook them until you have to just lightly pull the meat off of the bone, that’s when you know they’re cooked just right!

It’s no surprise that they have been featured on Charlotte Today, Sunday Night Football, and rated some of the best ‘cue in the Carolinas by ‘Our State’ Magazine! With two locations in our backyard, the original at Plaza Midwood and their new location in Ballantyne, you can easily get your fix (see here for exact locations and hours).
