Smoked Love BBQ — Restaurant in Bastrop

My wife and I met some friends in Bastrop and ended up trying this place, and it was unbelievably good. I was lucky that we were in a big group because I got to try almost everything.

The double smash burger with bacon my wife got was insane. Lots of cheese and double patties that tastes like it's made on a flat top griddle because the meat is nice and carmelized. The chicken sandwich was also top notch. Excellent flavor with pickles and bbq sauce. My wife and I split our sides of black beans and mac n cheese which were also gone in about 30 seconds after we tasted them.

For appetizers, the table got stuffed mushrooms and deviled eggs, both of which were pretty much perfect. I was honestly surprised at how good the mushrooms were because nobody outside of fancy restaurants can seem to get them right except this place.

The staff is super chilled and nice but work quickly. Our table had a big order, but it came out fresh, hot and fast. I chatted with one of the employees, and he was telling me they also have vegan/vegetarian options as well. He let us sample some smoked jackfruit which tastes surprisingly like smoked pulled pork. Unfortunately for our party, we got there too late to try the actual pulled pork because apparently word spread, and it sold out before we got there.

My wife and I will definitely be returning to this food truck when we...

Flavor explosion!! Have you ever been to a food truck park, with so many options, and you catch a smell that tells your brain to turn that direction? The sweet smell of pecan wood, rolling out the smoke stack, definitely is the start of something you know is going to be a wonderful tastebud adventure.

After tasting, almost everything on the menu, I can say my tastebuds were in overdrive. From the slow smoked pulled pork tacos to the slow smoked pulled pork Mac and cheese, the smoked armadillo egg, the double smash burger with double smoked bacon and everything in between, you will be back, like I did, to excitedly work your way through the numerous menu options. The awesome thing is that new items are rotated in weekly but they still keep the staples that you can come back for daily. Let me also add that the vegan/vegetarian options with smoked fruits and veggies are top notch. The smoked Jack fruit tastes just like pulled pork.

If you love smoked food, not just traditional BBQ, you absolutely have to add Smoked Love on your list of places to try on your next trip through Bastrop or to your lunch rotation for the locals. Thanks Thomas and Smoked Love for the absolute best smoked food options and...

I recently had the pleasure of having Smoke Love BBQ cater my party, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Thomas provided an exceptional selection of pork, chicken, and brisket sliders that were absolutely delicious and a huge hit with all our guests.

Thomas was incredibly easy to work with from the very beginning. He was punctual, arriving on time with everything ready to go, which made the event stress-free for us. The quality of the food was top-notch, with every slider bursting with flavor, and you could really taste the care and attention put into each piece.

What stood out most was how much everyone loved the food; the guests couldn't stop talking about how good everything tasted. It's not easy to find a caterer who not only delivers great food but also provides excellent service, and Thomas from Smoke Love BBQ did both flawlessly.

I highly recommend Smoke Love BBQ for any event if you’re looking for delicious BBQ and hassle-free service. They truly made our special day even...
