Deadwood Smokehouse Mold

You'll walk past the brick frontage on Wrexham Street and catch the smoke before you smell it, which is exactly the point. Deadwood takes its barbecue seriously: brisket that's been nursing in the smoker for hours, ribs that fall clean off the bone, pulled pork that makes you question every other version you've tried. It's casual enough that you won't feel out of place in jeans, but the craft behind each plate runs deep. The sides—proper cornbread, slaw that actually tastes of something—aren't an afterthought. Expect to queue, especially weekends, but the converted space on this stretch of town has become a genuine draw for anyone who knows their barbecue.
