2m Smokehouse & Catering

Absolutely delicious!! The sauce they provide is perfect with the sandwiches as well as the pickles. The food is so filling and the flavors of the side dishes are amazing on its own! Pictured: chopped brisket sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, chicharron Mac n cheese, Mexican street corn, and individual pork ribs.

Ok this is some serious BBQ! I’m not sure how they do it but they seam to pack so much amazing flavor into their bbq! I’m not just talking about the brisket and how it falls apart with a plastic fork so good, I’m talking about everything! Brisket WOAH! Sausage WOW! Mac n cheese OMG! Typically it’s either the protein is great and the sides are lame but not here, no way Jose it’s ALL GOOD!!! I would recommend getting there early as we showed up at 11am when they opened and had to wait(BAKE) in the hot sun for a while! My two negative thoughts about this place would be the line to get in and not that fact that you have to wait i don’t mind waiting if it’s good but I don’t like baking in the sun while waiting. Second is I’m not sure why they only have one guy slicing and one guy taking orders?! Double it up and get that line moving!

To celebrate my girlfriend's birthday, we had a gathering of about 30 people. For the special occasion, I wanted to serve BBQ and 2M smokehouse seemed like the "best"... they did not disappoint! I got brisket and turkey plus some of all the sides. The guests absolutely LOVED it. The guests were talking about everything... the brisket, the turkey, the coleslaw, the macaroni, the MEXICAN STREET CORN... ALL OF IT. The food was great and I'm sure everyone at the party will be visiting 2M smokehouse for more of the great food!

Ok this is a tough review and I have mixed feelings about it. So I have been to plenty of bbq restaurants in Texas and outside Texans and I love bbq with a passion. One thing I appreciate when I go to a BBQ place is that they are offering something different than the rest bbq places to stand out. This place does it in their own way. I really feel like they throw in a south Texas style bbq with a little different flair. So the bbq is really good and great. Brisket was super moist even the lean part and is a meat get. Ribs were good as well but really didn't stand out in my opinion. The sausage is where things get interesting especially the pork sausage that had cheese filling in it. I don't remember what cheese but it was a peer jack or similar and it was amazing. I would suggest that over the beef sausage which I was disappointed in. The bbq sauce is also different and I was not a fan of. It kinda reminded me of soy sauce bbq but not sure what. They were doing a special orange pork belly and that was different but very good and the pork belly was great just different with that sauce. The sides they do is what sets them apart. The Mac n cheese has a twist and I dig it. Also they have purple coleslaw that goes great with the bbq and I don't usually get coleslaw. This place I've been told is the best bbq in San Antonio and I cannot confirm it, but it is really up there for sure. I can see why people would say it is the best in San Antonio. Go check them out and find out for yourself if it is.

Our pork Ribs and brisket are a bit dry and the BBQ sauce doesn't taste like one, too watery and sour. But the sides are amazing. I liked all of the sides I ordered : macaroni, beans and street corn. But...again we went there for the meat not the sides. I hope the management of the restaurant to provide shelter like a roof/patio in front of the building for the customer, so we don't have to suffer that bad while waiting in line to get inside especially during summer.

2M really brought out the big guns today for my first ever visit on this hot hot summer day. Most of the seating is outdoors with picnic tables and parasols, but it’s hard to beat the heat without significant shade cover and misters. That said, I’ve been wanting to come to this James Beard nominated bbq joint for a long time! Everything on the tray was fantastic, and surprisingly, not as greasy as other bbq joints can be. My friends told me that 2M bbq is particularly outstanding because they don’t get bbq burps after the meal. Sure enough, even after drinking soda water, I didn’t get bbq burps either. A very interesting phenomenon. I’m going to guess that it’s because they have a very clean smoke (no acridity) and possibly less grease and pepper. Also, I’ve become a casual fan of pineapple cream soda now. Can’t wait to dig into all these leftovers.

First time visiting place. Show them on a BBQ show debuting places in Texas. They also dragged about their desserts on the show. We had the Sandwiches(4) both sliced brisket and chopped sandwich at $16.00 each.Sandwiches not bad also. We also tried mac and cheese w/ pig skins on top not bad and the street corn not bad. A little pricey. Today at 1pm no desserts at all, she didnt say they ran out ,she just said they normally have them in the display case. Limited.seatimg inside in the air conditioning. Seating in a screened area and outdoor seating. Temp 101 today. They do have.some fans blowing outside to help but barely.

This is our favorite bbq place in Texas! We've stood in line twice for hours at that place in Austin (which is also great), But once we tried 2M, it easily became our preferred spot. The cultural flavors on the menu are done perfectly (chicharon Mac & cheese, street corn, and Oaxaca Sausage are the best). The wait in line varies but it's worth it. We've gone on Fridays and one Saturday but the wait in line was between 15-45 mins. Can't recommend enough!
