If you want really delicious, juicy, succulent, soft, tender, sweetly sauced burnt ends…. this ain’t it chief. Just head over to Smoky Trail BBQ for everything i’ve just described. Way over seasoned and salty, most pieces felt more like jerky. The lack of sauce with how dry this was crazy. Ended up giving food to my dog in which he thought it was perfect. Can’t wait to see what place replaces this in the coming months!

Visiting from out of state, we came with our local family. They certainly talked up the burnt ends. When I saw on FB that they were discounting not only burnt ends but brisket due to an impending storm, we moved our visit to an hour earlier. Glad we did.
.
There were 4 pounds of burnt ends when we were sat, but that dropped to a single pound remaining by the time our order was taken. My wife and I had sandwiches so that others in our party could get what they were so looking forward to.
.
I had the Burro sammie while my wife had the Stogie. We exchanged halves so we could taste both. I thought they were great. I liked the Burro more while she preferred the Stogie.
.
Our party let us have a bite of the burnt ends, and they were excellent. I had also looked forward to them and was disappointed to have them unavailable, so finding them so delicious did not reduce that emotion.
.
I had fries for my side, and also got the beans. Both were great. If I have any criticism, it is that I paid $3.50 for a 2oz ramekin of beans. Everyone who got burnt ends got meat in their beans, while we lowly sammie clowns did not. It’s like buying a coffee at a diner for $2.50, which you know costs 15¢.
.
This was a great experience and we are looking forward to returning.

100/100, not enough gold stars available for this place! The quality of the food and staff are just something special. Weather, it’s the party fries, the brisket, the secret menu Auju shot with local whiskies, or just a taste of some delicious sauces. You just can’t go wrong with anything on the menu! It’s all good. Only problem is for you when you do show before they sell out. Cause it happens EVERY DAY! It’s that good. Illiana is hoot of a server.

I always prefer a small locally owned restaurant. And this place is one of our favorites. I love that the meat isn’t smothered in sauce – it’s deliciously smoked and with a splash of sauce to highlight the quality of the meat. I admire the pride that Chef Sean takes in making sure that the product he serves here is high quality. They recently made an upgrade in offering Wagyu brisket, yes, I said Waygu.
If you don’t already follow their Facebook pages, that’s where you can see Chef Sean’s video updates on what is happening in the restaurant. It’s also were you can get the scoop on the daily specials.

Finally a KC style bbq right down to closing early if they sell out: the ultimate compliment to a KC style bbq restaurant! The food is excellent; hand rubbed slow smoked meats and homemade bbq sauces that you choose and add to your liking. I love their side of potato salad and coleslaw!

Just had a fantastic lunch at Sammie D’s! The sandwich (Brisket and ham) was delicious, the fries were crispy, and the service was excellent. I definitely recommend checking them out!

The mac n cheese was not good. I enjoyed the burger. There was plenty of meat. The patty was unevenly seasoned but still tasted good. The fries were my favorite.

Stopped in after a school event in the area. During happy hour (5 to 7). Amazing deals and the smell was just amazing as the food! I did the brisket and burnt ends and both were top notch! Wife had the chicken sandwich and it was awesome as well. Regular sauce is amazing. The medium had a lil more kick than I like but it tasted gppd as well. Overall… I am sp happy to have found this place… we will be back for sure!

The food is good, but if you’re going to take out, make sure they actually put barbecue sauce on your food. I got the burnt ends and while they’re tender, they’re pretty darn dry. Overall, it’s pretty good but double check that you get some barbecue sauce.

Finally had a chance to check out Sammie D’s Fine Smoked Meats in Elizabeth. While I wanted to order one of everything, I opted to get a two meat sampler and add a few items.
I got the brisket, and smoked chicken – which came with toast and pickles. I also added some amazing burnt ends, and for sides – I got their house made french fries that were beautifully seasoned, and their barbecue beans.
Everything was fantastic! I got a chance to try all three of their sauces which I highly recommend trying as well…with the original being my favorite. All of the meats were fantastically smoked, the staff was really attentive, and I can’t wait to go back.
