Steelhorse Smokehouse: A Delicious Destination for Barbecue Lovers in Newberry, SC

Updated : We just drove 80 miles to eat here again. I should have brought my wife back sooner. Sabrina did a great job and made us feel so welcome Hurry and exit off Hwy 26 and eat here. Great barbecue ribs and ice cold beverages. Smokehouse devil eggs are awesome.

We stopped on our trip south from Michigan and are beyond happy! Sandi was an outstanding server, and the food… blackened grouper sandwich was perfect and the brisket was “lick the plate” good, according my to husband! Worth the trip off the highway.

The people were nice but the food was just okay. The poutine was a big disappointment at $9. They melted some cheddar cheese on some fries, then sloppily dumped a can of beef gravy on top. There were no cheese curds, and the gravy should be homemade at that price. The brisket itself was tender and had decent flavor, although a good chunk of my sandwich was fat. The Mac and cheese was dry and had clearly been cooked quite a while ago. The potato salad was the best part of the meal. I'd consider giving it another chance, but there are so many great BBQ options around, it's hard to justify coming back.

Delicious BBQ at this local restaurant. We are new to the area and were so excited to find this place. Sabrina was an amazing server, so quick with service and so congenial. The place wasn't crowded on a Wednesday night, and she spent a few minutes talking to us. This is local hospitality that we very much appreciated as we'd just moved here. I'd read reviews of this restaurant and the food matched up to them. The chicken was moist and flavorful. We loved the tangy, red and spicy BBQ sauce. My husband really liked the brisket. The fries were to die for. So crispy and light. He loved the coleslaw, which is specially made and has a bit of pineapple in it! We went back a second time and got their special of the smoked salmon and it was amazing. Also, the half rack of ribs that my husband got was huge and he said very moist and tender. The meals and drinks were very affordable. A must go to!

Great prices, huge portions, fantastic service and ambiance! The brisket was juicy and some of the most tender I've ever had, the ribs were perfectly done, and the fries and mac and cheese were some of the best around. This place has poutine too, some of the best I've had this side of the Canadian border! I'm certain the dessert is just as delicious as everything else, but they fed us so well we ran out of room! 6/5 stars!

After many disappointing meals in the Columbia South Carolina metropolitan area, this restaurant was a pleasure. Shrimp and grits, very tasty and full of perfectly cooked shrimp. Catfish nuggets appy, moist and tasty. Brisket meal elevated by being correctly seasoned and meals in your mouth tender. Key lime pie very tart and with out whipped cream, hard to swallow. Cafe very clean, staff accommodating. I recommend this restaurant totally!!! Solid good food.

LOVE coming here! The servers recognized us after the second time! The Cheesy Pig is delicious!! The owner and servers are so nice and the food is always amazing! Highly recommend for a good meal in downtown!

I really wanted to give this place a better rating! We came to eat a little after lunchtime on a Saturday. It wasn’t crowded… we got seat right away by a nice lady. I ordered BBQ, hash and rice and collards. Food was served quick, but just didn’t have much flavor. My friend got some BBQ nachos and she liked hers ok.
