About Jose's Smokey BBQ Bar
Low, slow and absolutely worth the wait — Jose's Smokey BBQ Bar on Pine Road in Brendale has been bringing proper Texas BBQ to the locals since early 2025 and the smoky, flavour-packed results speak entirely for themselves. This is BBQ done the right way and the only way — meats smoked slowly and patiently until they are falling apart, dripping with flavour and delivering the kind of bold, deeply satisfying experience that genuine low 'n' slow cooking was always meant to create. Big portions and an unapologetically laid-back atmosphere make Jose's the perfect destination for anyone who takes their BBQ seriously and their dining experience comfortably. Pull up a seat, unwind and let the smoky goodness do the rest — or grab it to go and bring that Texas flavour home.

Great food, great people.
Owner and staff were just the best people, helpful and friendly. Food is fantastic, we had the brisket, pulled pork and sausages. All were delicious and we even purchased a second Mac n cheese to take home.
Amazing food and experience!
Thank you to the team out at Jose's smokey bbq bar! It was such a fresh experience to have someone so passionate about what they make. The food was fresh and the customer service was on point! We will be back for more as this is out new favourite BBQ in QLD!
No Nonsense Slow Cooked Meats!!??
Jose’s Smokey BBQ Bar is an absolute gem—one of those places you walk into and instantly feel like you’ve found something special. The vibe is warm and welcoming, and the passion behind the food shows up in everything they do.
The BBQ is the real standout. You can taste the care taken in every step of the cooking process, from how the meats are treated to the slow cooking that delivers real tenderness and depth. And even the wood used makes a difference—the smokiness feels intentional and rich, like it’s been built patiently rather than rushed, giving every bite that comforting heat slow-cooked meats should have in Australia.
What’s even better is the location. Being in an industrial car sales area could sound like a strange choice, but somehow it turns into a great spot to gather, enjoy the warmth, and share friendly conversations with the highly hospitable staff. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to go back to—because it delivers flavour, atmosphere, and genuine hospitality all at once.
Jose's smoked meat
Jose and his crew are the most bright and friendly mates will put a smile on your face but the food will make you want to come back 100%
Best fried chicken in Brisbane
Personally think this restaurant is the best in Brisbane and theres nothing like it. First bite of the burger and i had chills i was shocked how good it was definitely try!
Rich & Rare
In my time, I have seen only a few businesses thrive the way that Jose's BBQ does. They deserve only the best. Rich food, rare hospitality that is done the right way. Well done.
