I got ribs, mac-n-cheese, coleslaw- was very good. Mac was wicked good! He got brisket sandwich, baked beans. corn bread. Really good ! bbq sauces, excellent! Nice Mayflower porter too. Computer glitch was a drag but all in all, love the venue and food was very flavorful. A bit pricey but we will be back! More...

I really liked the fact that there were to televisions. Great atmosphere to sit, chat and enjoy some amazing barbecue. Perfect location. My husband and I will definitely make the trip there again. You gotta try it!!!! More...

My husband ordered the brisket sandwich & I ordered the pineapple bomb burger!! Both were delicious and served on the best rolls. We both had the onion straws which were fantastic. Crunchy, full of flavor and gluten free!! The sauces are so full of flavor. We sat at the gorgeous bar and Deb was great. Highly recommend to the BBQ lovers!! More...

Absolutely delicious! I was definitely apprehensive about going for dinner here since I'm a vegetarian, but they have a veggie patty that quite literally knocked my socks right off! All of their sauces are unique and flavorful, their sides were great and the portions were pretty fair! Loved it! Can't wait to go back! More...

Have been going here since it opened a couple of months ago. Every time the food has been great, from the pulled pork, brisket, spare ribs, hamburgers, sandwiches and now the chicken wings. The sauces are unique and add great flavor to everything they make.The sides are great also, love the street (sweet) corn, Brussels sprouts and the potato nuggets, yummy.Great food, great taste and a fun relaxed atmosphere. Sharon & Ryan are doing a great job and the staff is friendly and nice! Highly recommend! More...

I love the fact that all food is from local farms and businesses, they are pricey but everyone needs to make a living, it's tough these days. Service was exceptional, tried a few things so price was high but everything was great. Pulled chicken, cornbread, brussel sprouts, potato nugs, @17$ More...

Great dinner here last night. Food and service was great. The sauces they put out continue to impress and wonderful beer selection too! Apologies for not clicking the “healthy food” option on the review, but those loaded tater tots would not qualify. More...

We have eaten there before and loved the food, so we decided to order some trays for our party. Before I get to the food the responses to emails and requests were top notch! Quick and always helpful and professional. I forgot to set up a pick up time a day before the party and they took very good care of me! Now the food trays. Amazing!! The food was soooo tasty and the quantities were more than I expected! You have gained a repeat customer not only for take out but also for a sit down meal. More...

No Joke Smoke opened a few months ago with a bang in their new location. Word of mouth was good and reports were that it was outrageously busy and they were running out of food. We waited a bit to give it a try and finally got takeout yesterday. I get the hype. We ordered The Great Brisket Experience and the Saweet Heat Cheddar Burger with man and cheese and potato nuggets sides. They gave us a bit of all three of their current sauces to have with it - Saweet Heat, Boozy Apple and Strawberry Habanero. I'm not usually a fan of sweet sauces, but they were all pretty good with the strawberry habanero being my favorite. The meats were all tender and flavorful with the brisket melting in your mouth. I make my own over the top mac and cheese, so I'm picky about it when getting it out. This mac and cheese was really good. Yes, the prices are a little higher than some other places. The Sysco truck isn't pulling up every day to deliver their food. They make their own sauces and are buying their ingredients locally. That's going to cost a little more and I'm willing to pay a little more to support the local farms and farmers. I'm a fan and will be back. More...

Stopped there today with my dad. Greeted by the bartender who told us we could order food and sit down, order to go or join him at the bar and he would serve us. It was a nice welcome to the restaurant. We decided to order and eat in. I got pulled chicken and my dad pulled pork - both of us with nugs (he sweet potato and me regular). They have a sauce sampling set-up but we just decided at random. Got honey mustard and the saweet heat. Our review? EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS Special mention -- the corn bread, creamy moist, and very good. Might just stop someday and get some of those to go! Yum. Will go back again most definitely. An interesting item - we both sat on the bench facing the restaurant as we ate (kind of like watching live entertainment). Couldn't help but notice that the bartender is a cleaning maniac! He was washing and polishing up the glasses, holding them up to the sunlight to be sure they were sparking. Watched him wash the bar and he actually leaned down to counter level height to see if it was perfect in the sunlight. Loved it...wanted to invite him to my house to spruce up my kitchen! Seriously though, restaurant is clean, fresh, comfortable, welcoming. Food's excellent. Staff very pleasant. Worth checking out. More...

This place is a perfect addition to the limited restaurant choices of Swansea. The food is excellent: great ribs, gourmet sides, full smoked flavor brisket. While you wait for takeout (or eat in), they offer a nice sampling of New England brews. This place is a real gem, and the interior is spacious and beautifully renovated. More...

Went to No Joke today to try it out. Very nice inside. Ordered Ribs and brisket to go. Ribs were outstanding. Loved the sauce on the side. While waiting I sat at the bar and had a beer. Very friendly. Will order out more often and start to go here for a quick local meal. More...

Best BBQ I have had in all of Massachusetts!!Just as good as if you went down to Alabama and had some southern BBQ. Will be back. The pulled pork was amazing!!

Hands down the best BBQ around. The ribs are dry rubbed and you can get a sampler of homemade BBQ sauce for them. Every BBQ sauce is flavorful and completely different. They have mild to very spicy and even the very spicy has bold flavor and isn't just hot. The burgers are also great. Always cooked perfectly and you can customize them any way you want! Now the sprouts. They are sautéed in a delicious sauce that is sweet and salty. Cooked perfectly every time! And the cornbread! I could eat it for every meal! Great local beer selection! Everything is locally sourced, waste is recycled and refunded. They serve food Wednesday to Sunday until they run out! The staff is very attentive, knowledgeable and always so happy! More...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Just stopped in at the Saucery for the first time since the opening and it is a great atmosphere in there! I had the brisket with strawberry habanero sauce and it was great! Nice smokey flavor and a fair amount of char that I usually don’t get on a brisket, which is a good thing. Charred, moist, & not grizzly. Just what we needed in Swansea! More...

Great place for BBQ. Everything they have is amazing. The pulled pork is smoked perfectly and they don't smother anything in sauce. The meat speaks for itself. We also had the smoked turkey grilled sandwich. Outstanding. It was tender and juicy. They were already sold out of brisket for the day so that says something!Don't hesitate More...
