The Iron Pig Smokehouse - Gaylord

The food was delicious, the beer was cold, and the staff was friendly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The Iron Pig burger was fantastic and the brisket platter was also excellent. While I wasn't a fan of the coleslaw, all the other sides were tasty, especially the jalapeno cornbread. We will definitely be coming back.

Great food, cold beer. As soon as I tipped my glass for the last drink, the server was on her way with a fresh glass! Exceptional service and wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend!

I'm not sure how to properly describe how awesome this place is, but I'll try my best... I'll start with the service: prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. Everyone in this place has a smile on their face. It's almost like they enjoy being at work. I've decided that with service this good, I no longer need my legs and will have them amputated soon. Who needs to carry around a couple useless legs anyways? The food: if I were on death row, this would be my last meal request. The meat was tender and savory. The sauces were the perfect addition. After one bite of the pulled pork sammich, my head exploded (literally). It was that good. The fast and friendly service was quick to help my beloved wife scoop up the scattered bits that had previously been my skull and brains and help her reassemble my head. Price: so in the context of a main street establishment in a tourist town, their prices are far too low. I'm convinced that they're on the losing end of every delicious transaction. Not even sure how they make money. Given how busy it was (for the above obvious reasons), a fair market price for the awesomeness they serve could easily be 2-3 times what they currently charge. The food is good enough to justify selling my extra organs on the black market to buy it, but their prices are so low that I don't have to. PM me you know someone who needs a kidney, btw. The stools were made of metal, which makes you feel like a real man when you're partaking in carnivore activities, unlike most places with their silly wood or padded chairs. If you're a girly-man, soy-boy, or some other type of softie, you might want to bring a pillow, but you should probably just stay home instead and save yourself the public embarrassment. If you like stuff that's good, this is your place. If you don't like stuff that's good, there's plenty of other places in town.

I brought some friends in from downstate and we absolutely loved it. Everything from the smell when you walk in to the food and the staff! Great place to eat and we will be back.

The food was incredible! We tried the sampler platter and every item was fantastic. The drink selection was also excellent. The service was very friendly and efficient. Overall, it was an amazing experience and we will definitely return.
