Smoke & Barrel brought the one and only wood-fired smoker (aka “The Beast”) from Missouri to Hong Kong, gathered a dedicated, knowledgeable team, and earned itself the title of epitome authentic old-school smokehouse American BBQ, the first and only of its kind in Hong Kong!
The idea is very much rooted in nostalgia. Co-founder Chris Grare grew up in the States and wanted to revive the BBQ tradition in its full falling-of-the-bone glory in Hong Kong. He has perfected a menu with Head Chef and BBQ master Christopher Tuthill, who has roots in Albuquerque and extensive experience working in Texas, the birthplace of BBQ, and helming the kitchen at the prestigious private club The American Club Hong Kong, among others.
Along with passionate experts and Hong Kong’s only (and arguably one of the world’s best) wood-fired smoker specially handcrafted by a family business in Missouri at that, Smoke & Barrel uses all-American meats and slow-and-low traditional cooking techniques to capture those hallmark flavors of American BBQ. Come to Smoke & Barrel to enjoy the warm, smoky atmosphere, great value for money, and full-flavored, hearty meats preceded by bold Asian-American starters, watered down with signature original cocktails and classic American drinks, and sweetened up with nostalgic American sweets and treats for dessert. Check out the mouth-watering menu here!
