Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse

Probably one of the best barbecue spots I've been to. Make sure you guys come check them out

Did I find my new favorite BBQ joint? Why, yes, I think I did. While visiting from out of town, I had a hankerin' for some good barbeque and found Sweet Magnolia's Smokehouse. We visited the restaurant, not the food truck, but it looks like they are mobile and make their way around town. Cool.At the counter, we ordered a variety of meats and sides. The pulled pork was my favorite, paired with the baked beans. The barbeque sauce was also liquid perfection-not too hot, not too tangy, just freaking right! The cornbread was also....woo-eee!! Tasty!If you are in the area, be sure to stop by the Smokehouse. Or if you see the food truck around town, hop in line and prepare for a delicious meal.

My son and I were just there on Saturday. My son has been there with his friends before and wanted me to try it, it was my first time there, and I gotta say it was a HIT! The service, the food and the overall experience we had as we ate there! Thank you for a great experience and great food!

So glad I found this place. The food is delicious and I really appreciate that the prices are reasonable. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The new lemonades on their menu are super refreshing and tasty. Will definitely be coming back again.

I'm lovin' food trucks! Even at a distance, the scents emanating from the Sweet Magnolia Smokehouse truck told me this was going to be authentic BBQ and well done. It was. Maybe one of the best meals that I have had in a long time. The best part? They have a bricks-and-mortar location in Ahwatukee. I cannot wait to check it out!Drumroll, the food...Brisket sandwich; I love brisket but almost didn't order it. It is so difficult to find brisket that isn't served dry like beef jerky. Brisket is meant to be moist. I decided to roll the dice and order the brisket. It was perfect. Expertly grilled, full of flavor, and moist. It melted in my mouth. The BBQ sauce was excellent. Not sweet, not spicy, just hearty. It had body and complimented the sandwich. The right BBQ sandwich when prepared correctly needs nothing more than the bun, the meat (or whatever your main is), and the sauce. I'm still thinking about it! I ordered the small size and it was all that I needed. Because I liked it so much I could have gone for the medium size, but the small by itself was satisfying.Pulled Pork sandwich: Akin to the brisket, everything was perfect. Generously stuffed with pork and slathered in BBQ. For this one, we ordered the largest size and it is BIG at a half-pound. No guilt!Macaroni & Cheese: This was full of flavor as it was smoked. This is not your average mac and cheese. Another nice aspect of it was that it wasn't heavy. You could eat it as a side and not feel stuffed. Very special and suited the sandwiches nicely.Sweet Potatoes: I ordered the sweet potatoes as both and an individual side and an additional pint. Nicely pureed and the color had some great seasonality. While they aren't topped with marshmallows, there is obviously some sugar added. Personally, I would have preferred them a little less sweet but they were still excellent.Peach Cobbler: When I first opened the box of the "peach cobbler," I thought a mistake had been made and that it was sides of cornbread. Upon closer inspection, it tuned out to be the peach cobbler. If you've had the peach cobbler at Sugar Jam, Sweet Magnolia's will disappoint you. You aren't going to find chunks of fruit in it. This is more of a cakey version. Don't get me wrong--it is good, but you just need to be prepared for what it is. A dense, moist peach-flavored cake with filling.Sweet Magnolia's food truck travels throughout the Valley. You can find them on the Street Food Finder website or app to get a preview of their upcoming stops. One thing that I loved is you can pre-order and pay on the site and even choose your pick-up time. I was impressed when I received a text 10 minutes early that my order was ready. Flawless execution.Really some of the best BBQ that I have had in Arizona and I cannot wait to have it again!#BlackOwnedOnYelp

Wanted to like this...as a Mississippian I really did. But I've had smack ya mama good bones and BBQ. This ain't it. Ordered the tips, a hot link and brisket. For sides... baked beans and Mac. The Good: Those sides are grandma approved. I knew I had a winner when she said the beans had meat in them. And the macaroni was equally as delicious. Which is a rare find in this area. Kudos!The Bad: Brisket is supposed to be tender...there should be no pull. My 9 year old son bit into his tip and then proceeded to eat some leftovers. That was some of THEE toughest meat. The hot link was cool. The rest...maybe we got a bad batch. It didn't have a normal smokey char...it was burnt. An Arizona thing?!?! Y'all can have that. The Ugly: The price! I get we are in the middle of a pandemic and businesses are struggling. Which is why I tipped even though I was picking up. But I wouldn't have been so annoyed if the product had matched the price. It didn't so I shan't return. Guess I'll wait until I go home and grab some E&L's or Sylvester's or...[insert any real Mississippi smokehouse]
