Smokey Bones Bar & Fire Grill, North Charleston SC

This was ok. There was plenty of food, but the quality was just mediocre. I still enjoyed it but there wasn’t much finesse to the bbq – very middle of the road and safe. The service (at the bar) was great though! My bartender was super friendly and attentive. He wasn’t bad looking either, hehe!

Assorted bbq sauces - Smokey Bones

Assorted BBQ sauce bottles. I love it when there are multiple bbq sauces to try. I’m always partial to the spicier ones, but these kinds of restaurants don’t ever go too spicy on the bbq.

Bones bin - Smokey Bones

Bones bin. Never seen this before. The bartender brings out this brown paper bag, folds the top and places it in front of me for my bones. Kinda cool!
