Where is Big Smoke located?
Morning DaveMani,
Thank you for all the reviews you do....great 👍 job!
On Monday the 22nd, I was running some errands in Karen whilst VERY H-U-N-G-R-Y, I saw this joint and remembered the awesome review you guys did about the food, I trotted in smiling like a new billionaire in an offshore banking hall but....men ohhh men.....5minutes in, while sitted inside the restaurant I got no service, no interaction from the service team, I later captured the attention of one of the members and requested for the amazing brisket platter but it wasn't available so i requested for the half buffalo wings with a side serving of avacados, service team went in came with devastating news even that wasn't available...I was disappointed and HUNGRIER, i decided to leave and go get something at Java at the shell fuel station.
I think it's important you share this 'grey' experience with the owners to enable them rectify and empower their service teams before their grand opening on Saturday.
Keep up with your great initiatives, I celebrate your work.
@@fkabogojnr hope by the main launch they would have sorted this out for us true bbq lovers
YES WANNA SEE SO MUCH I FEEL THE FOOD MELTING IN MY MOUTH
@@stephenchege6519 YES WE WANT TO KNOW
Who else love Dave and Tace ❤️🤗
Haven't seen Tace yet but we do love Tracy 😂😂

I do
This has to be one of your best food reviews ever.
Thanks a lot! :)
You guys are definitely foodies 😂😂😂😂. The way you are digging in, love it!
Oh yes we are!

You are welcome! :)
Ah thanks Stacy and Dave, that is beautiful place and Choma, drinks, everything perfect, thanks guys for showing us such location.
Hey our pleasure! :)
Happy to see your uploads
Thanks man :)
Thank you Dave and Tracey for the review. I'll definitely be visiting the place. The food looks very yummy. Again, thank you for the experience ❤.
It always a real pleasure!
Fantastic review! BBQ is not always easy to do correctly. Great sides are just as important as the meat. Sounds like this is a place I’ll have to find next time I’m in Nairobi.
These guys have it on point! 🥩👍🏼
That is such a fair & fantastic price point for the large platter. Have to go there when they launch. Thank you for the plug!
Yeah! Great value. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This is amazing guys ❤❤
wow thanks
I love these couple the way they introduce ❤ very realistic 😊
Thank you!
You didn't tell us where it is located in Nairobi. I love me some tender meat that falls off the bone. Nyama choma is nice but it can be chewy depending on where you eat. I guess we can say we got our own little Texas in Nairobi.
Not sure if they have branches but the one I Know is in Karen...just at the shopping centre,near matatu terminus to town.
Its at the Karen Roundabout.
I swear Dave @ 6:31 was in flavor heaven
100% 🤤
First time watching you guys and I love you already, good stuff
Hey thanks a lot!
Can't wait to visit this place. 🤤
So worth it :)
Great review. Hopefully, it'll open soon
Its kinda open now. They are running a soft opening for the next 2 weeks or so.
Love from India 🇮🇳 guy's
Cheers my friend! Thanks for watching ;)
Minute 8.03..yees! true Tace, that's the exact feeling my friend and I got at Big smoke. Much needed video
haha fair enough! :P
Challenge accepted Dave n Tracy I will visiting every joint after your visit keep the challenge up.
Always :)
Dave you are doing a great job
Thank you :)
This is amazing!!!!
It is :)
Dave you are blessed to have Tace❤!!!
I am!
@@DaveMani Yap!
The sauce is necessary in North America because the meat there is tasteless without it. In Kenya, the meat is tasty whether boiled without seasoning or barbecued without sauce.
I don't want to argue too much but America has so really good meat my friend. And I'm not American so I have no skin in the game.
@@DaveMani I beg to differ. J.W is right
Looking forward to visiting this place
You're gonna LOVE it! 🇰🇪👍🏼
If chemistry and vibes were people...👍
Yeah
Wow! You guys have made me hungry! That’s a place I have to visit! 😂
Hahaha
The Meat looked Yummy plus that Savanna Cocktail looks Good😍
That cocktail was a solide 10!!
I'm definitely going to order Traci's cocktail when I go there. Love cider, love gin.
It was AMAZING!
Great exposition Dave.....most obvious nothing beats Kenyan Nyama choma(BBQfor those who dont know)Glad you explored it
Thank you
Oh man, you make me hungry! The nyama looks to die for!
All their meat there was just so good!!! And Tracey's drink OMG!
Awesome 🥂🍾
😎👍🏼
Disclaimer Dave and Tracy I will be watching your videos when I’ve eaten…this was on another level will have to visit when back home…😋😋 thank you for sharing again! 💕
Haha very good idea. 😅
Added to Bucket list for 2023😊
Nice ;)
Ooh Big Smoke is a walk away from my place and haven't visited the place yet!!!! Must plan soon.
Then you gotta try! 🥩❤️🤤
‘Reke ngwire Mani,’I don’t know who bewitched us Kenyans, but the Love of nyama choma is unmatched here! Now see, the comment section is all about ‘where is this place?’!😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂....Maguta Maguta
@@erenestawanjiru1935 Ndakwira!🤣
Haha people need to just use Google! 🤣
wow wish i was there enjoying the nyama choma with u guys YOUR AMAZING 🥰🥰..
Delicious :p
Will stop by when I visit Nairobi.
Nice! 🔥🥩
@@DaveMani Thanks, from Des Moines, Iowa.
the smile on my face the all time
Always haha
Don’t know how I missed this VIDEO!
Haha all good! We post a lot. ;)
It seems very affordable, I’ll check it out. Good job😊
Its worth a visit :)
Gitu!!! My man. Big Up Big Smoke!!
It's the place! :)
Welcome to Eastleigh dave and mani.
Thanks :)
Finally, a decent place in Nairobi where you can have smoked brisket
100%
Tell them to get the authentic Mex-Tex hats. We know how much Trace loves them 😀
Hahahaha Tex-Mex for the win!
howdy from nairobi!? looks awesome.
Wooozaaaa (Howdy)
Howdy buddy! :D

Welcome onboard!!!
1:37 Tracy - you can't tell if it's alcohol or not..
Dave -- that's dangerous..😂😂😂
Very dangerous! Loll 😅🔥
Kenya 🇰🇪 be popping thanks for flying the African flag. Asante for sharing 👍🏿
Thanks for watching
This place is amazing. I lived their brisket
So good right!!
The best. Definitely going back there and the prices are really affordable..
Nice one thanks Dave; request to add a comment if place has Halal Meat; u have some Muslim fans so that would help, especially since the brisket was highly recommended 😅🤤
Good point and for that place in particular, I haven't see anything about that... :(
@@DaveMani it’s not usually mentioned but most of the time I ask the Manager if meat is Halal, usually chicken is because of Kenchic 😅👍🏽
This sounds like my dream place. As a Kenyan living in the U.S. I feel if you mixed both, you'd get the perfect BBQ. I don't like the whole BBQ sauce thing on ribs, but don't mind a spice rub. Love cornbread though. If you trade in the greens in the U.S for sukuma wiki, that should also be amazing.
Yeah, they truly did an amazing job at bringing Kenya and the USA in one plate! 👍🏼
Looks yummy
Because it is! :)
Kindly where is it located
It's a really cool place
It is!
Aghhrrr this making my mind go crazy
hahaha.
Ugali all the way....Ugali in Texas would taste so good and Nyama choma and Two Tuskers please
Haha this is why this place is Texas meets Kenya! They have all the good stuff. 🥩
where is this place manh...am in Kenya and still never heard of it...damn they cook so nice😋☺
Karen Roundabout. 🇰🇪
have to visit this place
For sure! 100% 🥩
That Nyama Choma joint is awesome, I'm looking at that meat I'm goig crazy here, it looks great.
You gotta try!
@@DaveMani Definately.
Thanks for sharing. Will try it though I'll skip the pork
Its worth it :)
Did you say all that meat for just around 2200 shillings 😲am definitely going to take my family there when it opens, we have so many nyama choma points in the country but to know that there is this with the American touch, there is no way am getting left out😋 at least we get to feel America over the table 😅
Yes! Super good price point.
Oh yum, looks like nyama heaven! 🤤🥩🍖
Delicious :)
I clicked very fast then Tesco ad popped I never gave up viewed it till end so I can watch this new video most times I just quit on the video but not on Mani💪
Haha you're the best!
Very nice
Cheers :)
Give us the location, can’t wait to land there 😃👍

Dave & Mane I would love to visit this spot where is it located in Nairobi
It is in Karen on Ngong Road near the Karen roundabout
You got it!
Karen Roundabout.
Where in Nairobi is this?
Karen Roundabout
I like it
We loved it too :)
lately I've been seeing a lot of white folks in Kenya, wow you have a lot of influence yourselves very impressive more tourism for us
I don't think I am the reason for that! 🤣
❤❤❤❤❤
:)
.......Now I am hungry!!
sorry... loll
Where's this? I have to go there. I love my roast meat
The Karen Roundabout.
Totally unrelated but I think thats why the Texans gave Moses a hard time in the wildeness, they wanted Nyama choma I mean if looks this great in TV who would blame them 😁
who knows loll
Where is this place?
Karen Roundabout
I like barbeque pork ribs with hot sauce 🤩
Same here! 😍🤤
wait. how have they not opened and everyone been going there
Its a "soft" opening.
How much did you spend on that meal, I wish to have it and tell us where that joint is located
It is on Ngong road in Karen near the Karen roundabout if you are coming from the southern bypass
I said the price at the end.
👍🏼
Specific Location ? Cause Nairobi big
Karen Roundabout
Yes, 7:33 ..you coild be right ! Who knows ??
An American Junk Joint in kenya !!!
Let's go it Slowly....And Cautiously !!
How comes we weren't shown clearly them tasting everything ( meats) on the Table ??
Remember Bgates is making meats in the LAB
Back in US
Its American influenced but still very Kenya just like the owners are.
Please visit my country Burundi
We would love to! ❤️
So, I was in Kenya in March... I ate burgers at three different places, and I was really disappointed. The burgers were not good. Can you recommend two or three places that serve great burgers? I will be again visiting early next year.
Mama rocks and slate has a great smash burger!
@@DaveMani I will put those on my To Try list
Is it close to Galaria mall? How would you rate food prices compared to other hotels in Kenya with the same food quality
It is on Ngong Road near the Karen roundabout
The prices were actually really good to be honest.
Exactly
Man you guys take big bites, jeez 😳
Hahahaha
🇺🇸🦅
Mericaaaaaa! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
