Texas Smokehouse Manukau

Set in the bustling heart of Manukau City Centre, Texas Smokehouse brings the big-spirited swagger of American barbecue to South Auckland. The mood is relaxed and inviting, the sort of place where slow-smoked aromas mingle with easy conversation. It's made for family gatherings and laid-back, late-night catch-ups with friends.

At its core, this is a celebration of smoke, spice and generosity. Indulge in slow-smoked classics like tender Texas-style pork ribs, juicy beef brisket, pork belly, chicken Maryland, cransky sausages and buffalo wings, best dabbed with house-made barbecue sauce and a choice of sides.

The grill gets its moment, too. From a scotch fillet or a classic T-bone to burgers stacked with brisket or crispy maple chicken, there's something to satisfy every craving.

For lighter options, fresh salads and bowls take centre stage, while seafood favourites such as fish and chips or grilled salmon broaden the appeal. Comfort is never far away, with chicken and bacon carbonara, a vegetarian pasta, and even a detour overseas for butter chicken with rice or a garlicky chicken breast.

Whether you come hungry or arrive with a crowd, the welcome here is warm and the portions hearty. Gather the crew, bring your appetite, and let the smokehouse work its magic!
