Savoring Slow-Cooked BBQ on a House Boat in Key West

When you’re surrounded by water it can be real easy to gravitate towards a helping of fresh seafood at every meal. 

We were walking at the end of Key West’s charter boat row when we smelled something really good, the savory scent of hickory and slow cooked meats coming from a floating restaurant, a houseboat really. 

Smoked Barbecue combines Southern the flavor of Kansas City style barbecue, Texas style and a Memphis style smoking process, along with an assortment of homemade barbecue sauces.

They opened up their rotisserie smoker so I could see a rack of their award winning baby back ribs that had been in there several hours, as that fragrant aroma hit me in the face, you know what I ordered. 

We had beer and sweet tea to start with the smoked fish dip. 

You won’t see any Vegans here, thank you very much, with their tender Angus brisket sliced to order, along with the Smokehouse Smash burger with butter and bacon.  

Angie’s loaded fries topped with warm queso, homemade pico de gallo, Chipotle sour cream and pulled pork topping. Some of the best fries you’ll ever eat.

Smoked chicken wings, killer burritos and bacon hush puppies. They even have my favorite red velvet cake. 

All the sauces were great, but we really liked the spicy blackberry jalapeno sauce. 

They will smoke anything that’s brought into them, a holiday turkey, your fresh caught fish or even deer.  

Sitting on the water, this place gives off a good vibe. 

Affordable pricing and yes, kids and dogs are welcome.
