As cliche as it may sound, there’s just something about Southern American food.

Some people might like to argue that the real cuisine of America actually comes from the South, and it makes complete sense. There’s just so much character and soul in their food, no wonder it brings people together. 

Think larger-than-life portions of succulent and smoky cuts that have been on the smoker for 12-hours straight, that’s the very philosophy of Dubai’s newest smokehouse The Blacksmith.

Their menu sounds insanely flavoursome and the dishes are ridiculously affordable. Seriously, where else will you get an ITIS brunch consisting of a platter full of smok’d meats along with free-flowing beer or cocktails for JUST AED299. IMAGINE!

We’re already salivating looking at some of their boldly seasoned meats on offer, which have been brought to you by Blacksmith’s Manhattan-based pitmaster and chef Orelle Young. 

Orelle promises to bring ‘music to your mouths’ with every bite

And if some of these meat-y goodness are any indication, we know he is telling the ABSOLUTE truth!

These are six drool-worthy dishes you HAVE to try at The Blacksmith…

1. These 18-hour oak smoked ribs

Just look at the sheer size of it…

This one is not for the faint-hearted! 

2. Hush Puppies with a dreamy cheese sauce

Everyone loves the good ol’ cornbread.

 Balls of deep-fried cornmeal-based butter are heart-warming, and belly-filling. 

These will remind of your mama’s cooking. 

3. The honest-to-goodness Texas brisket sandwich

The freshly smoked brisket that has been smoked for 14 hours….

Slow-cooked tender, juicy beef, try not to drool over this one!

This beast costs just AED99. We told ya, their prices are going to make your wallet extremely happy. 

4. The mind-blowing ITIS brunch

So many delish options, you’ll be spoilt silly!

It’s oversized portions of all the Southern favourites, including beans, smoked meats and grills. 

5. How about a grilled octopus?

Marinated and braised for four hours, seasoned with their signature dry rub and grilled over volcanic rocks. 

Tastes as amazing as it sounds!

6. Chicken wings

Southern style, marinated and cooked to perfection. 

If you fancy yourself a real wing-eater, head to The Blacksmith every Wednesday for the new flavour of the week – cooked up by The Blacksmith’s wingmaster. And it’s ONLY for AED36! 

Plus there’s a wing-eating challenge to see WHO can eat the MOST.
