This southern-style barbecue joint is the stand-still brick and mortar restaurant of the beloved Toronto food truck Hogtown Smoke. Right near Church and Front, this restaurant is dripping with good ol’ smoky flavour. With rubs galore and every kind of smoked meat imaginable, Hogtown Smoke is where cave dwellers come to thrive. Chef Scott Fraser has been avidly learning about all things smoked and grilled since he started his food truck operation. Now, with two standing establishments and a couple more on the road, he is a certified smoke master. The menu is chock full of meaty delights that have been cooked for just long enough: like pulled pork, loin back ribs, prime brisket and Hogtown Smoke’s famous St. Louis cut side ribs. If you’re headed in with a big group, you’re in luck, as the Pig out Platter is a smorgasbord of all the meaty treats you could ever ask for.
