  Very good food. Friendly staff.  Got there 5 mins before closing and still got to eat and sit.  Almost on par with Lockhart BBQ.

  Home smoked meats, make sausage in-house, delicious chicken-fried steak!

  Stopped here on our way back to Austin from Corpus Christi. Seemed like most of the town was there and for good reason. The food was very good. Brisket was tender and had great flavor. Sausage was also excellent. The potato salad was some of the best I've ever had. BBQ sauce was good but maybe a little too sweet and they don't have it out anywhere so you're limited to what they give you when you order. So if you like lots of sauce be sure to ask for extra. For an off the beaten path place it was very clean and had a good atmosphere. Wasn't the best BBQ I've had but it's definitely top 5 and definitely worth stopping on your way to or from Corpus.

  I love BBQ and I have loved Smolik's since I was little. They are relatively fast and super friendly. Which service is always a big thing for me it can make or break a meal. Everything I've gotten from BBQ to chicken tenders has always been great. They also have good lunch specials. Will continue to visit when in town for sure!

  Awesome freakin' BBQ! I have eaten BBQ all over the state and I'm pretty sure this place doesn't receive the credit it deserves. I went with a brisket sandwich and it was done to perfection. The sauce was some of the best I have had and it was one a toasted white bun. Pretty awesome! I asked for the broccoli and cheese because I didn't see mac and cheese on the menu. The lady told me "we don't have broccoli and cheese anymore, it got replaced by mac and cheese". Even better! Great lunch prices and amazing BBQ.
  
  Mathis is one of those towns that has only about 5000 people and if you aren't looking for it you will drive right passed it on 37 but I highly recommend you stop here next time you are driving through Mathis.

  We stoppped here to grab a quick bite before hitting up some Jet ski's on Lake Corpus Christi.  There wasn't alot of people there so I wasn't holding my breath for anything spectacular.  I ordered a large chopped beef sandwich and fried okra. The bbq sauce had a good balance of sweet and savory and the beef was cooked perfectly.  However, what really shined was the fried okra.  It was probably some of the best I've ever had.  I know it's not hard to have good okra but you can screw it up real bad too. If I find myself in Mathis I will be hitting up Smolik's again.
