It's Smokin’

Its not often that a town our size has its own smokehouse. Hickman and Weatherford Smokehouse has a history of smoking and southern cooking that goes back further than the Redlands’ own history. This is in the roots of owners Paul and Kelly (Weatherford descendant) Hickman. Their families have been smoking and cooking since the early 1800’s in Kentucky.

Their quaint restaurant is very informal emphasizing that "down-to-earth", relaxed atmosphere. You feel right at home eating their renowned Baby Back Ribs (half rack is $7.95 and full rack is $12.95) with your hands – extra napkins are always on the table. Open at 11am, they are ready to serve you smoked Pulled Pork, Brisket, Slip, Turkey and Chicken sandwiches (sandwiches are $4.95 each). All you have to do is follow your nose when you are on West State Street – opposite side of the Mall from downtown. They are at 615 West State Street.

They feature dinner specials (ranging from $7.95 to $9.95 depending on side dishes) of smoked Baby Backed Ribs, smoked Beef Ribs and smoked Ham plus what is offered for lunch. To accompany their great smoked meats are their own side dishes from baked beans to salads to corn pudding. And for dessert you can’t pass up Viola’s Sweet Potato Pie – serving dinner until 8pm.

They do their own smoking on the premises, so if you provide your own meat they’ll smoke it for you. They are happy to cater your special events. So when you are west of the Mall, follow your nose to Hickman and Weatherford Smokehouse for some good old fashioned smoked meats.
