BBQ in Austin
At Rollin Smoke we bring you our own special style of Texas Barbecue. We start with the highest quality oak and pecan, the best seasonings money can buy, and quality meats that just taste better. We use fresh baked buns from New World Bakery and all the Que is smoked on site in a Moberg Smoker for the freshest product possible.
We specialize in pork spareribs, pork belly burnt ends, creative sides, and vegetarian options. You can find new BBQ special recipes every week. Our dream is to serve you delicious meat and the most satisfaction we can possibly feel comes from your approval. We love what we do and we love seeing customers take that first bite.

Meet The Owner
Pitmaster and Owner Kyle Stallings doesn’t recall his first taste of BBQ. Born in “deep East” Tyler TX, you’ll find barbecue is one of the major food groups. As a 6th generation Texan, Kyle comes from a long line of women that never compromised on taste nor quality. His motivation to feed folks the highest quality food he can, regardless of the long hours or inconvenience caused, comes directly from the love his Mother and Grandmothers put on his plate growing up.
By 2011, Kyle had already spent years in the service industry, but didn’t consider himself an expert on BBQ. However, he was accustomed to quality and set out to do his absolute best. Today, folks come from all over the World to taste Kyle’s smoky meats and savor the recipes inspired by his family history. Rollin Smoke BBQ has lured folks from all walks of life, from Rap legends to barbecue aficionados to Hollywood actors.
Just like someone begging for your prized recipe at the church potluck, it’s been the overwhelming positive feedback and the return customers that propel Kyle forward. He looks forward to forging more connections and bringing more joy to family, friends and strangers in the future.

East and Central Texas Barbecue Meet at the Spectacular Rollin Smoke
Check out this shout out from Texas Monthly:
”Stallings hails from Tyler, and describes the rest of his menu as “East Texas meets Central Texas.” He smokes the massive pork spareribs often found in Central Texas, but they get a sweet glaze rather than just salt and pepper. “I’m not scared to sauce some ribs up a bit,” he said, but the tender ribs aren’t exactly dripping with the stuff. The brisket gets his universal rub, which contains salt, black pepper, chili powder, paprika, garlic, onion powder, and sugar. Slices from both the fatty and lean sides were spectacular.”
