Welcome to Smithy's Smokery where passion, meat, and fire meet!
It started a long, long time ago in a backyard far, far away. When Old Man Smithy was Young Man Smithy, he would spend his days in his backyard smoking pork butts.
His pull pork sandwiches became a hit in his local neighborhood. He was a big sports fan, so he put some cash together, bought a catering set, and started selling them at tailgates.
He knew he was on to something, so he experimented with other items. The biggest hit turns out to be a St.Louis staple Snoot Sandwiches. After settling down in San Diego, Ca, Smithy knew his calling would open a restaurant.
So he got some money together and started at small farmers' markets. From there, he knew he needed three core pillars to make a small local restaurant work.
- The freshest locally sourced products he could get.
- Supporting the community that would help him support his family. Forming meaningful bonds with local breweries and vendors..
- We provide education on some of the more unusual ingredients we serve. Plus, smoking education lets people experiment at home with what they enjoy here.
Smithy wants everyone to experience the joy of working with a smoker at home. So we included a video from our friend mark to teach the basics of working with a smoker.
