Smoke in Oak Cliff praised for having one of country’s best sammies


It's brisket, of course.

Pulled pork and brisket sandwiches from Bolsa and Smoke

Food & Wine magazine recently posted online their list of the best artisanal sandwiches in the whole US of A, and guess what? A local made the list: the coffee-cured chopped beef brisket sandwich at Smoke, the restaurant at the Belmont Hotel in Oak Cliff.

(Sadly, we have no picture of the sandwich, which indeed looks like brisket-y goodness. But you can see it here.)

That’s not the only thing that’s tasty at Smoke, by a long shot. Restaurant critic Leslie Brenner gave chef Tim Byres’ restaurant a four-star review last year, calling it “Texas cooking at its best.” She also raved about the churros there earlier this year.

The coffee-rubbed beef brisket the second local sandwich to get a little national love recently: In this month’s issue of Food Network magazine, Patina Green in McKinney was declared to have the best sammie in the state: ham and cheese with smoked cheddar and jalapeno-peach jelly on jalapeno-cheddar bread.

I could have sworn that Smoke was North of I-30 in West Dallas. Did they move? Or have the boundaries of Oak Cliff been changed?
