Reviews for Kettelhut's Smokehouse

I recently tried the burger at this barbecue joint and it exceeded my expectations. The flavors were outstanding and left me wanting more. The variety of homemade sauces and sides make for a truly satisfying meal experience. I highly recommend stopping by for a delicious meal that will surely leave you impressed.

I used to love Kettlehut, we've been going there ever since we moved to Jefferson County and found out about it a couple years ago. My husband and I met our children and grandchildren there just a couple months ago for a get-together and it was great!! The food always used to be excellent, I LOVE smoky BBQ, but what we got last night was such a disappointment. I ordered the pork steak and my husband ordered the ribs. The meat wasn't juicy OR smoky. I asked our waitress what happened and she said she would ask the owner. The owner came by and she was very rude and insisted that I was incorrect and instead of apologizing and asking if she could get me something else she turned to the other diners to get their opinion which was such outrageous behavior. I didn't dare tell her that my loaded potato was not edible, that it was obviously left over from lunch and not hot at all, but was afraid that she would slap me. The piece of white bread straight from a bag of bread was dried out and not from toasting either! It looked so inedible that I wasn't going to waste the vegetable oil margarine that they served with it. After we paid ($50, so NOT worth it, but tipped the waitress $11) we drove to the backside of the restaurant and found out what had changed. They USED to smoke their meat with a real wood fire but they had one of those electric pellet smokers on the patio which really makes the air smell smoky but not the meat. I understand that everything costs more these days but they should have just raised the menu prices a bit and not shortcut the quality of their food. So that is the end of my saga and we aren't going to go back, both because of the food AND the owner's intolerable attitude!

I usually don't care for smoke meat, but the ribs I had today from here were delicious.
