There may be several restaurants for barbecue lovers in the City, but 'Smoked Out Barbecue' will surely win over them. Situated in Koramangala, 4th Block, this eatery has an array of the famous Kansas style barbecue dishes.

One can let their taste buds tingle and indulge in some sweet and spicy barbecue at a very reasonable price. Started by Jaideep Gopinath, 'Smoked Out Barbecue' attracts families and the young alike.

It comes as a surprise that Jaideep, who likes barbecue, was once in marketing and had no interest in cooking. It was only when he camped out with a bunch of his friends that he started preparing food on a barbecue.

"I was interested only in American barbecue and when I thought of opening a restaurant, my mom thought that it wouldn't be my cup of tea," he laughs. He observes that people often mistake grill for barbecue.

"It is incorrect. Barbecued food is cooked in a closed grill because of which the flavours are intact," he explains. Jaideep does not have any training in cooking. Rather, his culinary knack stems from pure passion.

The restaurant bustles with youngsters and one can't help but notice the lightly smoky ambience.
To this, Jaideep cleverly says, "That's why it's named 'Smoked Out Barbecue'!" The menu is dominated by non-vegetarian items.

'Chicken Wings' are a favourite among the regular diners. It is a filling dish with approximately four chicken wings per serving. The 'Beef Tenderloin Steak' and 'Chicken Breast Steak' are must try over here.

Side dishes include 'Cheesy Fries', 'Garlic Bread', 'French Fries' and a 'Combo Basket', which has half portion of 'Cheesy Fries' and half of 'Garlic Bread'. For vegetarians, the menu offers 'Mixed Veggie Grill', 'Grilled Cottage Cheese Steak', 'Veggie Sloppy Joe Burger' and 'Cajun Dirty Rice', which is served with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes and grilled bell peppers.

'Smoked Out Barbecue' has its own loyal base of customers. "Everyday I get three or four tables of regular customers," informs Jaideep. He does not have any specialised chefs.

His staff includes five people. "I prepare the food here and the staff just help me out," he says. All the sauces used for the dishes are prepared by Jaideep at his house.

The menu is somewhat limited but Jaideep says that people prefer it that way. "Instead of a wide variety of dishes, people like to look at a menu which is more minimal. Whatever is offered here is my signature item. However, there are a few customers who advise me to revise the menu and add a few more dishes," he states.

'Smoked Out Barbecue' also has the option of takeaway. It is located at Koramangala, 4th Block, 8th Main. For details, call 40921023.
