Tropical Smokehouse is Florida’s craft barbecue, from the hand-harvested Florida Oak and Hickory we burn in our smokers, to our heritage-sourced ingredients. We bring Barbecue back to its roots of live-fire cooking, land stewardship, and people gathering. After a decade helming one of the finest kitchens in South Florida, Pit-Master, Local Business Owner, and Gator Dad, Rick Mace, hung up his chef whites and set his mind on simple cooking with quality ingredients fueled by a hardwood pit fire. Tropical Smokehouse does it the old-fashioned way. We work with our hands and focus on the details. Florida is more than a vacation destination; we believe it’s the true birthplace of American barbecue.
