Keep It Coming Kenny!

How is everyone?  Been a while since I have written a blog so time to knock out a couple.  As everyone that reads my blog knows, I travel all over the US and I am always trying to find great BBQ and I have found a lot.  Well, it is always great to find a good place in DFW.  Truly good to great BBQ is kind of difficult to find in DFW so it is always fun to try a new place.

I was told about Kenny's Smokehouse by someone in Tennessee believe it or not.  I will say that I was skeptical when I saw the menu.  I mean what respectable BBQ joint serves an ahi salad?  Boy, let me tell you.  I had no reason to be skeptical.  Kenny's Smokehouse is some of the best BBQ in DFW.  I really enjoyed everything I had.  Every pork meat I had was moist and tasty.  They my have the moistest and tastiest pulled pork I have ever had and remember, I have had world championship pork in the Carolina's.  I am not a big fan of wet ribs but their ribs are really good.  Not too sweet and just enough heat.  The jalapeƱo cheddar sausage you can tell is homemade and is so juicy. Can you tell I liked this place?  The only thing that could be slightly better is they could cook the brisket a bit longer as the brisket had a little too much fat that had not rendered down.  But that is being hyper critical because the flavor was great.  The next time I went in, the brisket was much better. The test of good BBQ is the lack of a need for sauce.  You don't need sauce here.


A little side note here.  I made a comment on a comment card about the brisket.  Within 12 hours I had an email asking me about the experience and wanting my feedback and asking me to give them another chance.  Folks, customer service like that just does not exist anymore.  

If you want some great BBQ and you want to have a ton of choices in sides or maybe just a good grilled ahi salad, please give Kenny's smokehouse a try.  Trust me.  You won't be sorry.  Keep on Smokin!
