Food Review: Smok’d at The Grey Horse, Kingston

Nestled in the heart of Kingston, Smok’d at The Grey Horse is a must for lovers of bold flavours and inventive BBQ fare. Part of the Smok’d family, this venue promises a dining experience that matches its London counterparts: The Britannia Smok’d (London Bridge) and The Candlemaker Smok’d (Battersea). Each establishment has carved out its own niche in the city’s vibrant food scene, but they all share a common thread: a commitment to smoky, succulent, and sensational dishes.

Smok’d Chicken Wings and Halloumi Fries

The Smok’d chicken wings are a testament to the restaurant’s dedication to flavour. These wings come with a perfectly crisp exterior that gives way to tender, juicy meat inside. Coated in a house-made spice blend, they offer a delightful kick without overshadowing the natural smokiness. Served with a choice of dipping sauces that range from tangy to fiery, these wings are a must-try starter.

For those who prefer a lighter start, the halloumi fries are a standout. These golden sticks of cheese are fried to a crispy perfection, providing a satisfying crunch with each bite. The rich, salty halloumi is complemented by a light dusting of seasoning, making them a delectable side or a perfect shareable starter.

Dry Aged Rib Eye Cooked on Hot Stone

A centerpiece of the Smok’d experience is the dry-aged rib eye, which arrives at your table raw and you then cook it yourself on a hot stone. This interactive dish allows diners to sear the steak to their preferred level of doneness, creating a personalised steak experience.

The rib eye itself is beautifully marbled, with a deep, rich flavour that only enhances with the sizzling action on the hot stone. It’s a dish that combines performance with taste, making it an unforgettable part of your meal.

Smok’d Famous Jacob’s Ladder Beef Rib

The showstopper of the menu is undoubtedly the Smok’d Famous Jacob’s Ladder Beef Rib. This dish exemplifies the restaurant’s expertise in crafting robust, delicious BBQ. The beef rib is slow-cooked to achieve a tender, fall-off-the-bone texture, then smoked to perfection. The rich, smoky flavor is balanced with a savory glaze that adds just the right amount of sweetness and tang. It’s a generous portion that’s perfect for sharing – or not, if you’re feeling particularly indulgent!

Smok’d at The Grey Horse offers a dining experience that’s both cosy and exciting, with an ambiance that matches its bold menu. The team behind the Smok’d brand has proven that they have a knack for creating exceptional BBQ, and the Kingston location is a feather in a cap already boasting the high standards set by The Britannia Smok’d and The Candlemaker Smok’d.

Whether you’re a fan of smoky wings, indulgent halloumi fries, or a show-stopping beef rib, Smok’d at The Grey Horse is sure to satisfy. It’s a delightful new destination for BBQ lovers and an exciting addition to Kingston’s dining scene.
