OPEN UNTIL WE SELL OUT DAILY HOURS DO FLUCTUATE CALL AHEAD.
We are an award winning competition BBQ team. Our team is made up of our family with the occasional help from friends. We enjoyed our hobby so much we decided to offer our services to those who love to eat BBQ. People requested over and over to open a restaurant, so we decided to take the jump and do it. Cooking low and slow so our meat reaches it’s ultimate smokey taste and tenderness. Come in and try our delicious smoked bbq meats and food.
Relaxed all-day smokehouse offering slow-grilled barbecue meat, plus fries & sides.

We got the pulled pork loaded Mac and cheese, brisket and chicken. I’ve never been a fan of Mac and cheese from restaurants but holy cow it was amazing. The barbecue sauce was tangy & complimented the pulled pork perfectly. The okra was fresh and crispy & they have good ranch too. The brisket was moist and had amazing flavor. The rub on the chicken was also amazing but the meat wasn’t as moist as it could be. Overall, the best barbecue place in Tucson. We will be coming back for breakfast, nachos, and loaded taters!!

Very clean, nice team at the counter. Love that there’s Kool aid on tap! Veggie portions were really small, filled half the container. Guessing it’s weighed but the impression is that you get a container, not half the container when you’re paying for it.
Spice on the chicken is unique and yummy. Brisket is dense – not tender but not chewy – and the right amount of fat. Flavor is good.
Decent for taste but comes in under on value due to the sides.

Googled to research a decent BBQ for lunch and decided to try this place. Local restaurant, pretty down home, nothing fancy, but clean. It’s obvious a lot of locals eat here as several customers were greeted by their first name. We wanted the brisket but it was sold out, so we did pulled pork. Very tender, a hint of sweetness, good flavor. Sides were Western Beans, Chipotle Bacon Coleslaw, Potato Salad, all were very good. We are from Missouri, which has some of the best BBQ in the country in KC. This is the best we have had except for the KC BBQ. I recommend arriving early as they prepare only a limited amount. When we left about 1:30 there was a notice on the door that they were sold out.

A little late, but I absolutely had to add a positive review for Kiss of Smoke BBQ in Tucson. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about them!
My daughter got married in November and, on Monday, decided she wanted to host all of her out-of-town guests for a casual dinner on Friday! I called Kiss of Smoke that same day, and they got back to me right away and assured me they could accommodate the order on short notice—and they delivered in every possible way.
The food was amazing. Everyone raved about it! The brisket was outstanding, incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the mac and cheese was delicious and a huge hit. They came out, set everything up seamlessly, and there was plenty of food for everyone.
From responsiveness to service to food quality and price, the experience was exceptional. I would highly recommend Kiss of Smoke BBQ to anyone looking for fantastic food and dependable catering. We are so grateful we chose them!

Try the brisket – breakfast burrito, stuffed tater, whatever – but you should try it. Chicken, pulled pork and jack fruit are all good options as well. Their potato mash is pretty impressive, too. I wasn’t a big fan of BBQ until Kiss of Smoke

On our recent visit to Tucson my wife and I (KC BBQ lovers) decided to try a local BBQ establishment. Usually we are disappointed with other BBQ, but this was not the case this time. The place is kind of off the beaten path, but well worth the drive. My wife and I shared a two meat platter with two sides, roll and fountain soda(RC on tap to boot). As the photo shows the meat was moist and delicious and sides didn’t disappoint (the staff recommended the Western Beans and the 4 cheese mashed potatoes and so glad they did). Staff was polite and helpful and the building and area seemed clean and well kept. Be sure to show up early however because as the sign out front says when they run out of BBQ they close. We got there right at noon and they were closing by the time we finished eating. By far this was the best food we ate our entire week in Tucson.

After recently moving to Tucson, I had been searching for some good BBQ. This family owned spot is some of the best BBQ I have had in a very long time!
Stopped in on Friday for the ribs since this is only day of the week they make them and WOW. Also had the brisket and chicken, smoked to perfection.
The sides were all delicious as well. My favorite was the chipotle cole slaw and the potato salad. This is definitely going to be one of my go to spots whenever I am craving some BBQ. 10/10

Excellent brisket sandwich and rib plate! The sides we had, potato salad and coleslaw were outstanding! They tasted very fresh and homemade. Also loved their spicy sauce. We’ll be back for takeout again. Wish they were open for dinner.

I purchased brisket and jackfruit (frozen) to enjoy for the holidays. My entire family was highly impressed and raved about how delicious and tender the meat was. We can’t wait to try more options very soon. The entire staff was absolutely wonderful when I visited.
