Smokin' Pug
105 Lang Suan Road, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330 (next to the Luxx XL hotel)
Daily 17:00-23:00 (last food order 22:00)
Smokin' Pug is an American barbecue joint on Lang Suan Road, a few minutes on foot from Lumphini Park and about ten minutes from BTS Chit Lom. Opened in 2015 by an expat couple, it smokes its meat in-house daily in a large courtyard smoker. Most people come for the baby back pork ribs and the smoked brisket, with wings, pulled pork, mac and cheese and cornbread on the side. The room has exposed brick, photos of the American South and blues playing, and the bar pours craft beer and bourbon cocktails. Portions are big, so many diners order less than they think. It opens every evening from 17:00 to 23:00, with last food orders at 22:00, and booking is wise on busy nights. Expect roughly 800-1,200 baht a head with a drink.
Rating from public reviews
Each part combines public reviews from several sites (3,255 reviews). Not our own visit.
Diners rave about fall-apart ribs and tender brisket served in big portions, with owners and staff who make everyone feel welcome.
A few find the brisket short on smoke or flavour on some nights, and the bill climbs quickly once wine and cocktails are added.
