Don't know how many of ya'll live near Des Moines, but if your within 4 hours of the place, I HIGHLY recommend Smokey D's. My wife & I went to the Surf Ballroom in Clearlake, IA to take in a Dwight Yoakam concert & stopped by Smokey D's on our way back to Omaha. We each had a 2 meat dinner & 2 sides. I had the sausage & pulled pork with beans & potato salad. Dana had brisket & burnt ends with cole slaw & mac & cheese. The sausage & pulled pork is excellent!! Good smoke flavor & moist. The beans were good, but the potato salad had a hint of horseradish in it. I had some reservations about that, but I gave it a try & am I glad I did, it was very good, especially with the beef my wife had. The brisket she had was better than average, the cole slaw was ok, the mac & cheese was good, but the burnt ends!!! OMG were they good! It was like a buttery explosion of perfect smoke across my tongue!!!!!!! I promptly got up & bought 2 lbs of them to go!! God were they good!
