This traditional BBQ smokehouse takes pride in using wood-fires and blue smoke to set the perfect moment for the pit-master's craft. They never use electric smokers, instead opting for local woods and organic chips to bring out the best flavors in their meats. All their meats are carefully selected for their heritage, texture, and taste, ensuring that every bite is a delight.

The Hickory Shack honours the Texas tradition of dry rub meat over smoke and sauce after. They take it slow, slow, slow so you can enjoy just the right amount of smoke, juice and flavour. And if you're lucky enough to meet their bad-ass pit crew, they'll show you how it's done.

Their menu boasts of mouth-watering ribs, brisket, pulled pork, sides and more - all cooked low-n-slow to perfection. And if you're in a hurry, they'll wrap it up lickety-split so you can enjoy your meal on-the-go.

Overall, The Hickory Shack at The Promenade is a must-visit destination for anyone who loves good barbecue food. Their commitment to quality ingredients and slow-cooking techniques make them stand out from other restaurants in the area. So head on over to The Hickory Shack today and indulge in some of the best barbecue dishes around!
