Smokin Oak Bbq - (Near Mariposa, CA)

5 /5 Suckadave: Excellent bbq!! I was shocked to find this place out here. The food was great! It was busy so you may have to wait a little while but it is well worth it. Highly recomend this place if youre in Mariposa!

5 /5 Tom Kraemer: Very good smoked meat with a touch of its own flavors the red onions and pickles were outstanding macaroni and cheese I think the best they’ve ever had the baked beans out of this world coleslaw is pretty good too not only to talk about the meats they were off the charts Probably getting in there tomorrow.

4 /5 Mark Brown: We shared a 2 meat plate of ribs and brisket, with a side of beans and a watermelon salad. The ribs and brisket were good, but we didnt see the extra BBQ sauce until we were cleaning up. It may have all been claimed at the moment, so make sure you look for it if you need some. The beans were a little disappointing, they call them Country Beans, as they are definitely not BBQ beans. They were a little bland and way too watery imho. However, the watermelon salad was a delight, mixed with cucumber, mint and jalapeño, it was a nice flavorful refreshing change of pace. I would definately recommend the watermelon (though its likely season), as its not too hot, and you can avoid the jalapeños if you dont care for them. Walk down the hall and the inside seating is the brewery and bar "next door." Make sure to think about what you are ordering to drink at the counter, because you may want a beer next door.

1 /5 Kytka: I stopped into Smokin’ Oak BBQ in Mariposa and asked if I could get just a small side of meat for my dog. I’ve often ordered a child’s portion or a small side at other BBQ places, but the gal at the counter was completely unwilling to help. I even offered to buy a plain sandwich or platter and have the sides wrapped separately to take away, but she just wasn’t interested in accommodating. It’s disappointing when a simple request is met with an unwelcoming attitude—especially from a place that otherwise has such a good reputation. I love BBQ and was planning to eat here while staying in the area, but because of her unwillingness to help, I’ll find somewhere else to eat.
