Situated in paradise on the shores of #LakeAtitlan in #Guatemala’s San Pedro La Laguna, #SmokinJoes is not only a mobile weekend American southern-style bbq, but a shop providing the town with much needed access to gourmet imports, southern style homemade bbq sauces, & most importantly clean food.

Stop by the bbq Saturdays in Panajachel or Sunday in San Pedro for perfectly grilled meat comas and a scrumptious selection of sides, or just to hang at the bar, where there are weekly drink specials.

Open til 4pm Tues-Friday, our shop is just 2 doors beyond the bbq location, so stop by for the freshest, widest selection, and check out the catalog on FB: https://www.facebook.com/smokinjoesbbqmeats/

Can you think of a prettier backdrop for chillaxed weekend foodcoma bliss?

Long story as I haven’t blogged in forever but I wound up in Guatemala enjoying THIS fabulous bbq on weekends trying to slow my brain tumor w/clean food. I HAVE lost plenty of weight on the clean food diet and THAT is my view.

Smokin’ Joe’s is not only one of the most delicious things in town but a truly diverse experience and one you can’t miss traveling down here!

I wouldn’t recommend it if i didn’t eat there!

Getting your Joe on; the full story!

Step 1: Visit the San Pedro butcher shop for your imported/specialty meats, cheeses, and fresh mushrooms (misc stuff too, our homemade BBQ sauces, olive oil, etc).

Step 2: Walk 5 min away towards the Santiago dock and hit Geronimo’s farm (not affiliated w/ Joe’s, just the freshest stuff around).

Step 3: Pick your produce needs.

Step 4: Combine into your dish of preference (ours tonight was a bolognese-ish sauce; I say ish due to some lack of traditional ingredients).*

Step 5: Enjoy!

Smokin’ Joe’s shop is open Tues-Fri in San Pedro La Laguna!

The #truestory of how a tiny butcher shop & a local farm that uses no pesticides make my meals fantastic :) Thanks everyone!
