Smoking Shack BBQ.

The dream of two BBQ-obsessed buddies from culinary school to have a restaurant of their own, comes true in the form of Smoking Shack.

Our shared love for BBQ meat led us to open Smoking Shack’s first food truck in 2022. After participating in 200+ events, serving thousands of people, and preparing tonnes of meat, we’ve opened Smoking Shack Restaurant. We specialise in slow-smoked high-end meats and offer the richest, juiciest meats at affordable prices.

The Restaurant

CATERING

Food Truck

We come in hot for an on-ground, live BBQ experience! We cater to your taste buds with a customisable menu that includes our beloved pork belly bites and chicken wings. Our Burgers and Tacos are also crowd favourites. Plus, we have a range of delicious dessert options for the sweet tooths.

I just wanted to send you a message to say THANK YOU for catering our wedding a few weeks back in Morrinsville. The food was absolutely exceptional and I still dream about that pork belly to this day! Our guests were blown away by the quality of food and the service, and there has been high praise since. You made our day that extra bit more perfect and we honestly cannot thank you enough. We highly recommend you and we hope to stumble upon your food truck out and about in the future!

The food was amazing. The meat for the brisket, beef short ribs and chicken was so tender and rich in flavour. The side dishes were good as well, although I was expecting the macncheese to be really cheesy but it was great that it wasn’t because I’m not really a cheese person. The flavour was light, I loved it. The sausages were a little bit overcooked, I was expecting for a soft kind of popping bite, regardless it was still delicious. The fires were really good as well, it stayed crunchy after a 20 minute ride home. Maybe the experience would have been different if I did not order for takeaway instead. I think it would have been more amazing. Would recommend! ❤️❤️

This place is legit and if you really up for a good barbecue experience this is the place to be. I had the tomahawk and the way they cook is absolutely perfect and compliments with chimichuri and butter. I have also tried the pit stop and everything is delicious. I highly recommend and it’s my favourite place here in Auckland 😂💯🥩🥧🌮. I’ll be back 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥..ohh by the way the staff are nice and friendly and make sure you get an awesome meal and the ambiance is like you’re in Texas vibes 💯10/10, and lastly the dessert’s are madness I’ve tried the cheesecake and crème brûlée 😂so good

Really impressed with our dinner at the Smoking Shack! I’m from Alabama and have been living in Nz for almost five years and was really craving some BBQ. Smoking shack did not disappoint. We had the Wagyu short rib, pulled pork sandwich, loaded brisket fries, and the cornbread. I was really impressed with the corn bread and short rib!! The atmosphere is great - you’re basically just sitting in this shack with a smoker smelling the meat cooking while waiting. Great service. Would recommend booking a table - looks like it can fill up quickly.
