Slow-smoked meats, scratch-made sides, clean-label sauces

Blue Kuna Smokehouse in downtown Plymouth slow-smokes brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and chef-driven specials over kiln-dried cherry, apple, and oak, pairing them with vegan, gluten-free, small-batch sauces and rubs honed over nearly a decade.

BBQ Worth Planning Your Day Around

Tired of basic, forgettable barbecue?
Blue Kuna Smokehouse serves award‑winning, slow‑smoked meats,
real sides, small‑batch sauces-

so good they sell out. Leave full,
happy, and planning your next visit.

Before the smokehouse opened

Blue Kuna sauces and rubs were on shelves across Michigan, in more than 40 stores, giving home cooks the same bold flavors now used on the restaurant’s meats.
 
The smokehouse is the natural next chapter- where the spice rubs, vegan-friendly sauces, and kiln-dried smoke meet a brick-and-mortar kitchen in the town where it all started.
