Although it is home to more cattle than people, my home state of South Dakota, and the northern-Midwest region in general, is not well-known for barbecue. That has not stopped me from trying to track down something respectable, but too often what I have found in the area is something only slightly better than the boiled ribs slathered with ketchup that I was once served in an establishment in neighboring Iowa.
Still, I retained hope. So when I read a few glowing reviews about Pit 14 prior to passing through the Black Hills on a summer road trip, I made sure our plans allowed for at least a quick stop.
Parking in an empty lot just off the main street, where the bright red restaurant holds down a corner spot, we were first welcomed by the scent of wood smoke wafting from an offset smoker that sits behind the restaurant. From my research, I knew that it, like the owner had made the trip here all the way from Texas. That, and a pile of freshly chopped wood were hopeful signs.
Entering through the front, we were greeted by the owner himself, who explained that he was working alone, so we should expect a little bit of a wait as well as a limited menu. We had time, and brisket was on the menu, so we ordered a couple sandwiches and sides. Although the entry room is small and was crowded with patrons waiting to place or pick up their orders, there was a comfortable-looking dining room off to one side. The pleasant breeze and sunshine outside were too nice to pass up though, so we retreated to the large patio area in front to enjoy the afternoon air while we waited.
We waited maybe fifteen minutes, not bad considering the situation. We were soon admiring thick chunks of smoky, barky beef piled high on fresh sandwich rolls, and knew the wait had been worthwhile.
There was more than enough meat on the sandwich to pull some prime pieces off to enjoy on their own. The brisket flavor was as good as it looked. Beef, wood smoke, and spices all combined for a taste that could have convinced me we were in Texas instead of about to head into Wyoming.
Combined with generous servings of potato salad and creamed corn, we had more than a full meal. Both side dishes were expertly crafted as well. The only letdown was that we were not able to try more of the menu.

Stopped in last week while vacationing in the area and we read good reviews so we were pretty excited. I’m originally from California and my boyfriend from Texas, and we’re often left disappointed with bbq places here in SD, HOWEVER, this was NOT one of the places that disappointed us. The brisket was THEE BEST that I’ve had since being in the Midwest. It just melted in your mouth! The beans and cream corn were absolutely delicious, even the pickles were so good!
I had to make sure to go back and tell the staff how absolutely wonderful our meal was before leaving. If we’re in the area again we will 100% eat here again! Best/closest bbq I’ve found that reminds me of home.

Oh man, if you’re anywhere near Spearfish, SD, do yourself a favor and go to Pit 14 Barbecue, this place is a game changer for BBQ lovers! We stopped in for the first time, and we both went straight for the brisket. I had the full plate, which came piled high with that melt-in-your-mouth brisket alongside sweet corn and creamy baked beans that were the perfect smoky-spicy-sweet sidekicks. Every bite was absolute perfection…juicy, tender, and packed with that authentic Texas flavor that just screams “real deal.”
This was hands down the best brisket I’ve ever had in my entire life, no exaggeration! It was smoked to smoky heaven, with a bark that’s crispy and flavorful without being overpowering. Krista opted for the brisket sandwich, and she couldn’t stop raving about it… the meat was so flavorful and piled generously on a soft bun that soaked up all those juices. We were both in BBQ bliss, wiping our plates clean and wishing we had room for seconds.
What really sets Pit 14 apart is the owner… he’s originally from Texas, and you can taste the Lone Star State authenticity in every aspect of the food. It’s not just barbecue; it’s an experience that transports you south with every forkful. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the vibe is welcoming and down-home. If you’re craving top-tier BBQ in South Dakota, Pit 14 is your new must-visit spot. 5 stars all the way; we’ll be back!

Juicy delicious pulled pork and creamy corn! The owner is super nice. He even had me try some candied jalapenos off the menu. This will be my “go-to” in Spearfish for now in.

Really great BBQ – we had the pulled pork and brisket. The sides stand out – the creamed corn and baked beans are unlike most options in the upper & mountain west. Terrific.

New BBQ joint didn’t disappoint! Brisket is excellent, complemented by the potato salad and beans.
Great downtown location….4th of July parade only added to the experience!

Love this place. Wish I could afford it more often. 🙂
My “go-to” meal is the smoked brisket sandwich, creamed corn, mac n cheese and a corn bread muffin. Delicious.

100% nailed the texture and smoke ring on the sliced brisket. I had the brisket platter with the two sides, brisket baked beans and potato salad. It came with sliced pickles and two soft slices of white bread. Good place. Try it. Texan owned and operated.

Absolutely amazing southern bbq! Meat is excellent! Bbq sauce is a little on the sweet side, but really good! Highly recommend if in Spearfish!
