If you're craving mouthwatering barbecue, Blue Door Smokehouse is a must-visit in Lexington! 🌟

I tried the brisket and baby back ribs on a recommendation, and wow - absolute perfection! The brisket was so tender it practically melted in my mouth, and the ribs had a delightful spice kick. The atmosphere is cozy and casual, great for a laid-back meal.

They offer three delicious sauces, but I honestly didn't need them; the meat was that good! Just a heads up, the space is a bit small, so be prepared for a wait, but it’s totally worth it! Definitely coming back! 🥩✨
