A few days ago my husband and I stopped at Smoak Town as we continue our way through the Texas Monthly top 50 list. We went on a Wednesday a few minutes before they opened and there wasn’t a line and plenty of parking! The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The food truck and tables were clean and well kept!
Now, about the food! I was incredibly impressed by how good everything was. The mac and cheese was the best I’ve ever had from a bbq place. The brisket was addictively good!! I can’t stop thinking about it good! The bbq sauce was also impressive. I’m not usually that interested in the sauce, but this was great!
Overall, I cannot wait to go back and try more! Worth the price and the drive!

Stopped in here on a cold Saturday around 1pm In Fate Texas. Their trailer is with some other trailers and a covered sitting area. Everything we had was great. I haven’t had them all yet but this brisket belongs in the TM Top 10. Ribs were good as was the pulled pig. I see lots of places with 5 stars that I would rate 3 or 4, but this place is legit good. Potato salad, mac and cheese, creamed corn, beans, all were great sides. The team was friendly and I enjoyed chatting with them about Texas BBQ, got some good ideas. Close enough to Dallas, can’t wait to go back.

First time trying this place. Brisket was tender and the bark was on point. Ribs had a sweet touch which were delicious. I really enjoyed the sausage, it actually had a Jalepeno kick to it. The family had turkey sandwiches and said it’s must try. Solid food overall. We will definitely order here again.

We were looking for catering options for my grandpa’s 90th birthday party with 30+ people and chose Smoak Town BBQ because the food is so good and the price was right. Best decision we could’ve made—everyone loved it and kept asking where the food was from. Highly recommend!

Worth the hype as a Top 50 in Texas? You know it was really good. The star for us was the jalapeño sausage, ribs and burnt ends. The brisket was a little dry, but weather could have affected that being cold and windy. The sides were okay, but sides are hard at any bbq place. Being a craft bbq spot the prices are a little high but not that bad, especially for what you get.

I stopped in Fate, Texas today for lunch at SMOAK TOWN BBQ located in the Fate Food Haul food truck court. I have tried this location a few times in the past and have been pleased with it. This is a food trailer so all meals are prepared to go vs on a plate. There is a covered pavilion with wooden picnic tables for dining.
I tried a variety of meats along with one side today and opted to eat in my vehicle vs outside due to the heat and cleanliness.
Brisket: I ordered 1/4 pound with half of it lean and the other half moist. Both were good enough to not need sauce. Their sauce is a smoky sweet hickory flavor. I was reminded at how pronounced their bark is, it was higher than average in sodium. 6.5/10
Pork ribs: The crust was great, the meat fell off of the bone and the tip pulled apart from the cartilage easily. The seasoning was also heavy in sodium. 7/10
Pork belly burnt ends: medium sized cubes that were not crispy on all sides. The open sides allowed you to see the meat vs fat layers. The consistency was great, they were tender and pulled apart easily. 7.5/10
Broccoli salad: chopped broccoli with nuts, craisins, seasoning and a light dressing. The broccoli was overly chopped but it allowed all of the flavors to meld nicely. 6/10
I added another stamp to my Texas Monthly Top 50 BBQ Joints as Smoak Town BBQ was selected for the 2025 list. The seasoning did not vary much from one meat to the next. I would be happy only ordering one meat item per visit, I will try to remember that in the future.

My wife and I had our date day out at the fate food haul and we can tell you why this place is in the top 50 BBQ joint in texas. Good people, good food. They open at 11 but I recommend you get there before that for sure

Hits: pork belly 10/10, pork belly, the staff, free beer
Misses: brisket, sides
Ribs were decent. Sauce was average.
Despite being on the top 50 list, I can’t say I would go back. It’s too out of the way for what it is. I need my stellar Texas bbq brisket. For comparison if goldees is my 10/10, Hutchins on average is a 7.5~, this would be around a 6.

“We followed the Smoak… and found BBQ glory at the end of the trail.”
TL;DR: Smoak Town BBQ brought the fire. Brisket, turkey, and pulled pork were all bark, bite, and beauty. The sides held their own. Hospitality was five-star, straight from the pitmaster’s heart. Worth every mile and every empty stomach rumble on the road to BBQ salvation. This one smokes the competition.
It’s early on a Saturday morning. The truck’s full of gas, the cooler’s iced down like a Yeti in January, and I’ve got a few cans of Celsius riding shotgun. The mission? Four BBQ joints in one day, and Smoak Town BBQ was stop number one.
The wife, aka my side dish queen, decided to sit this East Texas meat parade out. Said something about wanting to “catch up on work.” Translation: she didn’t want to be trapped in a brisket-scented truck with two grown men arguing over which pitmaster has the best bark. Her loss.
My buddy Big D rolled up right on time, and we hit the road with the same focus as a pitmaster watching a firebox. First stop: Smoak Town BBQ, nestled in the heart of Fate. By 10:15, we were pulling into a food park that had more wood stacks than a small lumber yard. Official opening time was 11, but we figured a little Texas charm and hungry eyes might work in our favor.
Pitmaster Cameron Haley greeted us like we were family showing up late to Sunday dinner. No hesitation. No fuss. He built us a plate that could’ve made a grown man weep.
That plate? A trio of meat magic: thick-cut turkey slices that were moist and seasoned like Thanksgiving came early, brisket with a bark that crackled like campfire kindling and a center that surrendered like slow-simmered butter, and pulled pork so tender I thought about calling it sweetheart. Mac and cheese came creamy, beans came bold, and that homemade sauce? It was the kind of dark, tangy elixir you want to bottle and baptize your next brisket in.
The setting? Casual. Honest. Covered seating and small-town pride hanging in the air. His sons were out “hunting frogs” nearby, which, let’s be honest, is just elite-level prep work for future BBQ pitmasters.
We cleaned our plate like it owed us money. No leftovers. No regrets. Just smiles and sauce-stained fingers.
We shook Cameron’s hand and promised to be back when we had time to linger and eat slow. This place deserves a second visit with the full crew and side dish queen in tow.
18th stamp in the passport collected. 32 to go.
