### 3/5 — New Year dinner

*2025-01-01, version 1.0*

I picked up brisket, turkey and sausage & requested additional bbq sauce.  Or home to zero bbq sauce!  The one thing I specifically requested!  Not happy.

We used to go to another location across town and I am so excited that one opened up nearby where we now live. The stuffed baked potato was great, and the moist brisket was to die for.

### 1/5 — Options are terrible

*2026-05-24*

The app used to be perfect, but something has happened and they’ve taken the options away. For a BBQ place, the option to select lean or moist brisket is extremely important. Also for the drinks, there is no ice customization- and for some reason, they want to fill the drinks for you. Just leave the cups empty for the customers to fill when they get there, or at least have that as an option. They’ve also taken away the notes section where you can request such things. In addition, please make BBQ sauce as a choice for the breakfast taco sauces.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-03-12*

The latest update broke the app.  As soon as I launch the app, it wants my phone number.  There are no other options, only to enter your phone number. When I enter my number it tells me that my number is already taken. Yup, because I had been using earlier versions of the app and I have a login already.  But now I can’t do anything.  I’m just stuck in the enter your phone number loop and the app will do nothing else.

### 1/5 — Never Works

*2025-05-16*

I’ve tried multiple times to place an order by app. First off, the options are limited. For example chips are on the menu but you can’t specify what KIND of chips you want(???). 
Secondly, the app is buggy. I build an order up to the point where I indicate what time I want to pick up my order & suddenly get error messages that app is unable to build basket please try again later. Very frustrating when trying to save time by ordering ahead.

### 1/5 — No potatoes ready!

*2024-10-01, version 1.0*

$8 chopped baker potato on Monday not available. 20 minute wait.

### 1/5 — Basket error

*2024-09-16, version 1.0*

Need to update side options because it does not let me select correct amount of sides and then it gives me an error and cannot submit payment

### 1/5 — $5 off scam

*2024-02-05*

Ad says $5 off when you download the app. I downloaded the app and went to purchase a $30 order and cashier said you get the $5 off the next time I come back. There won’t be a next time with the bait and switch advertising

### 1/5 — Terrible smoke chicken

*2023-11-22, version 1.0*

Extremely bloody chicken. Need to learn to cook chicken.

### 1/5 — Not ready yet??

*2023-09-28*

I do t understand this app.  In store the scanner “isn’t connected yet”.  When I scan receipt, “no points awarded.”  Clearly not all functions are ready yet so why release this app prematurely?  The company that purchased Smokey Mos has really messed up a good thing.  Quality is down and issues like this seem common.  Sad after it was such a great BBQ restaurant.

### 2/5 — What’s wrong with your app?

*2026-05-22, version 1.2*

I have had so much trouble trying to place this order.

### 3/5 — Food and restaurant

*2025-03-23, version 1.0*

Food was excellent! Napkin Holder caked in dirt and dust! Not very sanitary.

Hill Country Bar B Que true to its roots.  Fast friendly service.   The meat is pretty well perfect.  I really enjoyed it.  The cream style corn was to die for.
