The Menu:Smoked Sausage &amp; Shrimp Juicy, slow-smoked sausage paired with tender, perfectly seasoned shrimp — kissed with flame and layered with bold, savory spices. Each bite delivers a smoky depth balanced with a subtle coastal sweetness that lingers deliciously on the palate.Coffee-Crusted Chopped Brisket Biscuit Buttery, flaky biscuit stacked high with chopped brisket encrusted in a rich coffee-spice rub, slow-smoked until melt-in-your-mouth tender. The bold espresso notes deepen the brisket’s natural richness, creating a savory, slightly sweet bite that’s pure comfort with a gourmet edge.Smokey Drumsticks Fall-off-the-bone chicken drumsticks bathed in a house smoke blend, slow-cooked to juicy perfection. Finished with a caramelized glaze that locks in flavor, these drumsticks deliver a deep, wood-fired aroma and a crave-worthy savory finish.Mini Smoked Pulled Pork &amp; Mac and Cheese Cups Bite-sized indulgence at its finest — smoky pulled pork layered over creamy, velvety mac and cheese, baked into perfectly portioned cups. The tender pork adds bold barbecue flavor to the rich, cheesy comfort beneath, creating a handheld masterpiece of sweet, smoky, and savory bliss.Charred Corn with Lime, Tomato, Cotija &amp; Garlic Aioli Fire-charred corn bursting with natural sweetness, tossed with fresh tomato and bright lime, then topped with crumbled cotija cheese and a drizzle of creamy garlic aioli. Smoky, tangy, creamy, and fresh — every bite is a vibrant celebration of summer flavors.Smoked Sweet Potato with Whipped Cinnamon Butter &amp; Candied Nuts Slow-smoked sweet potato, tender and caramelized, crowned with cloud-like whipped cinnamon butter that melts into every crevice. Finished with a sprinkle of crunchy candied nuts for the perfect sweet-smoky balance and irresistible texture.
