Spring Break 2009--Da Smoke--final part of TX trip

Chris' aunt lives right outside of San Antonio, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. She doesn't cook at all, so she has her favorite little restaurants close to her house. They are all little hole-in-the-walls and we tried her favorite BBQ place while visiting her.

Da Smoke is located in Adkins basically in the middle of nowhere. As soon as we got out of the car, the smell of BBQ welcomed us into the tiny restaurant. No frills with plastic picnic rooster table covers.
My plate of ribs and brisket with greens (amazing) and fried okra (one of my favorite things).


Chris' plate of ribs and pork tenderloin with potato salad and gumbo.


Nathaniel's plate of brisket with fries and green beans. The green beans were amazing with onions, potatoes and bacon cooked with them.

They had fried chicken as the special for the day. I was tempted because Aunt Cathy had raved about the fried fish, but I was pleased with my choices as was everyone else. Great little restaurant with no frills and delicious food!
