About Smoky Martins BBQ

After 26 years of service with Pitt Ohio Express it was time to retire and for me to embark on a new journey and follow my passion of “low and slow” bbq cooking.

In 2013 ​we started the mobile bbq and spent our days traveling to surrounding local areas to promote ourselves. We had such positive feedback and the demand for our smoked meats was huge. The amount of requests for catering events like weddings, parties, picnics, was huge and as a result we started looking for a location to set up shop in.

I stumbled upon the Park Avenue location one day and knew it would be perfect, the vision for the space it is today came to me immediately. It took six months to revamp the building into what it is today because it was not previously a restaurant. Today it is exactly the space I initially imagined and is perfect for offering my homemade sides, wood-fired pizzas and smoked meats.
