We ordered brisket, pulled pork and baked beans. The meat was tender and moist. The beans were delicious! Everything was seasoned perfectly. If you haven’t tried the food at Smok’N Oz BBQ, you are denying yourself a tasty bbq experience!

Driving by and saw the smoke stack going and the cash only sign and we (husband and me) thought, smells good and we have cash so why not! And I'm glad we did. Got to try some samples before we ordered, the owner was very gracious and kind to us and other customers that came by after us and there were several. The brisket was wonderful, very tender and not as fatty as some brisket can be. The coleslaw was cold and crisp and tossed in a vinegarette, and it had a slight kick to it, so it didn't have an overwhelming vinegar taste, it was very good and paired well with the brisket. Had a taste of the ribs and would love to give them a better try sometimes. So dig up some cash, borrow it, toss the couch cushions, go to Walmart and do cash back, whatever you need to do, but this is a must try place. And who cares thats its next to a bar! You don't have to go in, there are places to sit and eat, in the shade outside. The bar patrons could care less about you. The portion sizes are just about right, not every place has to have pig trough portion sizes to be worth the price. It's worth the price for having something unique to eat, or to sit outside, enjoy the weather, and enjoy good food and talk to people you just met.

Ozzy is the man! The food is top notch. Best brisket I've had in the Panhandle. A true gentleman with flair for the smoked meats. First time here. Definitely won't be the last. Just a heads up its cash only. So hit the ATM before you come! Thank you sir!

Best BBQ on the beach

Excellent bbq!!! Had the brisket sandwich and tater salad. Both definitely on point and a must try!!! Wife had pulled pork, cole slaw and Mac n cheese. She was very happy with her food as well. Didn’t try the sauces, cause in my opinion if the bbq is good, you don’t need sauce… Cook/owner very friendly and appreciative. Only open Thursday thru Saturday and cash only, but definitely a must try if you are in Panama city

The owner is friendly and the food was fantastic.

So delicious and huge portions! We had the sampler, pulled pork nachos, brisket plate, and ribs.

Awesome BBQ. Ribs so tender the bones come right out and the brisket is so tender it falls apart. The chicken strips and fries were the best ever - couldn't snap a photo because my son hate them so quickly. Oz's customer service is the cherry on top. A hidden gem worth every penny! Bring cash as he doesn't accept cards.

I got two 3 meat samplers - ribs, brisket, and pulled pork - with slaw, collards, beans, and potato salad for sides. The meat was phenomenal! Tender fall of the bone ribs, flavorful pork, and brisket worthy of Texas. LARGE portions. The sides were quite tasty - especially the potato salad. $25 per meal, which I thought was a bargain because it's easily 3 meals worth of meat. It's a shack next to Vic's, no dining room, carry out only, cash only. Best BBQ in PCB!

First time to eat at Smokin Oz. Tried the pork sandwich today and it was awesome!
