Wood-Fired Since 2013

Low. Slow.
Worth The Wait.

Brisket smoked 14 hours over post oak, ribs pulled off the pit fall-apart tender, and sides made from scratch every single morning.

Fire, Smoke,
And Patience

Smoke & Ember started as a single offset smoker in Pitmaster Curtis Beaumont's backyard, feeding neighbors on Sundays until the line stretched down the block. In 2013 he opened the doors of our first smokehouse.

We still cook the same way β€” post oak logs, no shortcuts, no gas assist. Brisket goes on before sunrise and comes off fourteen hours later, exactly when it's ready and not a minute before.
