Texas Smoke BBQ — Restaurant in Township of Langley

A friend and I came on a Saturday around 2:30pm to celebrate their birthday.

They have tables setup with umbrellas to keep you out of the sun while you enjoy your meal. They also have outdoor games for people to play (e.g. corn hole).

Two of us (one big eater, one small eater), shared BBQ For 2. There was ample food to share and plenty of BBQ to take home!

•Service 5/5: they were helping others when we arrived, but staff warmly greeted us and said they’d be with us shortly.

•Sausage 5/5: more of a smokie than sausage, in a good way! Nice flavor profile; all the smokey salty goodness that you hope for in a smokie.

•Pulled Pork 4.25/5: one bite, we were impressed! Excellent flavor, cooked to perfection, a tad salty, but the sweetness of the BBQ sauce helped offset that.

•Brisket 3.75/5: flavor-wise, it was good. We found some bites to be a bit on the dry side.

•House-Made Pickles 5/5: delicious, would’ve loved more! Perfectly pickly, excellent crunch.

•Coleslaw 2.75/5: basic, but fresh (i.e. not wilted or watery). Nothing bad, we just assumed they’d amp it up a bit.

•Mac & Cheese 1/5: call me crazy, I didn’t like this; thankfully, my friend didn’t mind it, and afterall, it was their birthday, so that’s what counts! Tex Mex flavor, but all I could taste...

Texas Smoke BBQ serves delicious pulled pork — tender, smoky, and full of flavour. The staff were professional, friendly, and kind, which really stood out.

I completely understand that smoked meats are expensive and take time, so the higher prices for the main dishes make sense. What doesn’t make sense is the pricing for some of the sides. Charging $6 for canned baked beans (which cost about $1.50 a can — and the portion isn’t even a full can) or $6 for a small piece of cornbread (a $0.59 box mix makes a dozen servings) feels unreasonable and out of touch.

If the mac and cheese or slaw are made in-house, that price is fair, but lumping those with cheap, pre-made items at the same price point just doesn’t add up.

There also wasn’t much BBQ sauce on the pulled pork — not sure if that’s intentional to highlight the smoke flavor or if they’re just cautious with ingredients. Either way, a bit more sauce (or allowing the customer to put it on themselves) would have balanced the dish so much better.

The food quality and service are excellent overall, but the sides’ pricing needs a serious...

This food truck not only serves up delicious BBQ, but the seating area they have is the nicest I have seen at any food truck location. There is an expansive green space with ample wooden picnic tables, each with its own umbrella sunshade. The ladies working the counter are friendly and welcoming, and the service is pretty quick as well. The sound system jams out great classic rock hits as you gobble your food. This place is a vibe, man! I sampled the Brisket on a bun as well as the JT Sando. There was plenty of thick cut brisket topped with a chilli pepper aioli providing just the right amount of heat. The JT Sando had pulled pork with sliced pork sausage on a bun with a light topping of BBQ sauce. Hard to say which sandwich I preferred. The JT had a little bit more smoke present, but the texture of the brisket coupled with a kiss of heat is hard to beat. Just order both. You won’t be disappointed. Will stop by this place ever time I’m in the area. This is the kind of business I love to support. Great food and great atmosphere....
