Stopped by for dinner on a Saturday night in January. We called ahead to reserve a booth, which was a good idea as the place was pretty busy by the time we got there about 6:30pm. We appreciated the glass panels between the bar area and high walls between booths which made it easier to hear each other. The table was clean and comfortable. The place has several TV screens displaying sports games. We ordered the smokehouse combo, smoked chicken wings, and a couple extra sides. The smoked chicken wings arrived hot and crispy. They are smoked first and then flash fried which made the skins nice and crispy. They came with a ranch sauce, but we asked for their Alabama white sauce instead. The Alabama white sauce was a little different than we've had at other places, as it was a bit on the spicy side, which we loved! If you order the smoked chicken wings, be sure to ask for the Alabama white! The smokehouse combo came with ribs, pulled pork, brisket, pork belly and jalapeno corn bread. The ribs were perfectly cooked and came with a sweet glaze. They were sweet, tender, and delicious. The pulled pork was tender and was best mixed with a bit of their coleslaw and some of the white bread that comes with it. The pork belly was a nice surprise, as it was tender and had some great bark. The brisket was ok, but not my thing. For our side items, we ordered the coleslaw, campfire beans, elote corn and something called Gigi Sue's cabbage. The coleslaw was wonderful, perfect combination of sweet and tangy. The campfire beans were just sweet enough, and the elote corn was amazing. The wild card was Gigi Sue's cabbage, which was interesting for something different. It tasted just shy of sauerkraut, and the bits of bacon helped keep it reigned in. The bottom line is that this place has some real serious barbecue, great sides and wonderful service. Glad we stopped in!

Four of us had an early dinner today. 3 of us, it was our first time there. We shared the combo platter with coleslaw and a dinner salad. First, the Dr. Pepper barbecue sauce was too spicy/hot for me. But the sweet barbecue sauce was great. The coleslaw was wonderful! All of the beef and pork meats in the combo were yummo! The serving sizes are very generous. I couldn't eat the hush puppies either. But my husband liked them and the dinner salad too. The server was very good. The desserts are to die for! Will come here again.

I ate here a few weeks ago. It was excellent. The ribs were tender and juicy. The brisket was perfect. I highly recommend

The food and service are absolutely amazing. I ordered the shrimp taco's, which came with tortilla chips and one side. My husband ordered the pork belly and got fries and the baked beans. I also ordered the butter pecan cheesecake. Everything was outstanding. Our server was Kayla and she was also amazing. Kayla is someone you feel like you've always known. The menu is on the pricey side, but I promise, it's worth it. This was our first time here and definitely not our last time.

Said we'd be back and we did. Carry-out called in our order for 1/2 pound pulled pork dinner and 1/2 smoked chicken with potatoes and their fantastic beans. The blackberry bread pudding for desert. OMG so frickin Good! The entrees were delicious and the sides were impeccable with so much flavor. Their bread pudding is amazing. My order was ready in less than 20 min. All for less than $40.00. Again, we'll be back.

We went there around 730 on a Monday. Wasn't crowded or anything. We were seated immediately. Drinks were brought out pretty fast. Order was taken. Food came out and it looked amazing. Tasted even better. Waitress was prompt on the refills. The ambiance was pretty relaxed. Could be a romantic place but also could watch the game at the bar and enjoy yourself.

Candance is the most professional, courteous, and efficient waitress we have encountered in the Elkhart, IN area. Smokin' Fattys BBQ has the best BBQ we have had in the United States of America. The jalapeno hush puppies, mac 'n' cheese, coleslaw, and their deadly but delicious beans are hard to choose sides. The restaurant decor rocks. I love the paintings of the rock royalty on the walls. But Candance rocks! Making it pleasant and enjoyable.

What an excellent meal, drinks and ambiance!! Smokin' Fatty's is one of 3 restaurants in town, owned by the same person and it didn't disappoint! Smoked meat... wonderfully mixed cocktails and service was excellent and quick! We arrived shortly before the dinner rush, so that made it a little faster than I think most would expect. I'd definitely go back if I'm ever in the area again!
