ABOUT US

Welcome to Winners Smokehouse, a family-owned, Black-owned gem specializing in authentic Texas-style BBQ. Our journey began with Kendall and Martrel, who worked under the restaurant’s previous owner before taking a leap of faith to lease the space. From that moment, Winners Smokehouse was born with a mission to redefine BBQ excellence.

What sets us apart? Integrity and freshness. Every bite of our BBQ is crafted with love and served fresh off the grill. We’re best known for our massive MVP baked potatoes – fully loaded with all the classic fixings and your choice of delicious meats.

More than just a restaurant, Winners Smokehouse is a labor of love that brings our family together. Each member contributes unique skills: Ken is the friendly face who welcomes everyone with open arms and Regina ensures smooth operations with her background in business management. Kendall leads marketing and customer service and Trel shines as our Pit Master and Head Chef.

At Winners Smokehouse, we’re not just serving BBQ; we’re building a legacy of love, family, and flavor. Come see why we’re the real deal!
