The Smoky Mountains are world-famous, and we think their food should be, too! We took our first family trip to Sevierville, Tennessee to enjoy the delicious eats and hospitality of the Smokies, and it did not disappoint. We tried great local BBQ, an amazing craft brewery, local whiskey, farm-fresh ice cream, and one of the best burgers we've ever had (The Elvis Burger--yes, it lives up to the name). We hope this video gets you excited for your next trip to the Great Smoky Mountains! Pro Tip: wear stretchy pants. #smokymountains #tennessee #foodie

I'm from New England and this is one of our favorite places to go with the kids. We go about 3-4 times a year that way we get to try all the great food and see all the attractions.

Oh wow-we are jealous that you get to go to the Smokies that much! The whole area is so beautiful and welcoming; we can’t wait to go back. Our daughter is a little older now so we can do more of the attractions and hikes. If you have any family recommendations we would love to hear! Thanks for watching!

We just stumbled upon your video and channel! We're locals from the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Buddy's is one of our favorites, and there are so many hidden gems. AKA Mom and Pop places we tend to gravitate to.

@WeReviewU we are so happy you stumbled upon us! We live in central Florida, but we love to escape the heat and flatlands by traveling north to the Smokies. We absolutely love the area up there, and of course the food is amazing. We are so happy you commented because now we can see all your food recommendations for our next trip. We have to hit Buddy’s again because it was incredible, but after that we need to try some new places! Just subscribed and now looking forward to seeing all the places you try. Thank you!

Honestly, we started this channel to share our trips with our parents and never thought anyone else would watch.

That’s so funny-coleslaw on pulled pork is a staple from my hometown (this is Caleb). But I’ve noticed that it’s not common outside of certain regions of the south. It’s good to meet another coleslaw & pulled pork fan, so it’s up to us to spread the word! Thanks so much for watching!

Was watching your video because I’m going to this area for vacation soon. Not sure if you said the phrase “we had beer before whiskey, we’re in the clear” backwards on purpose 😅it’s “liquor before beer you’re in the clear. Beer before liquor never be sicker” All out of love. I appreciate your tips because I love BBQ so I am comparing the best places, Buddys does look like a top option in the area anyway! Nice

@micalebgoeswest Жыл бұрын

Good observation! Yes, we knew we did beer then whiskey in the wrong order so we called it out. So far you are the only one who noticed 😊. It’s such a fun area so we hope you have an amazing trip. We only tried Buddy’s BBQ, which was amazing, but if you find another great spot we would love to hear for our next trip. Thanks so much for watching!

Very cute family and informative videos for people who have never been to the area :) We’re going winter time so it’s for sure going to be more of a food tour and we’ll try to keep warm for a few trails.

Sushi???????? Not used to heavy, fatty foods.

@micalebgoeswest 2 ай бұрын

I’ll be honest with you-this area is not known for healthier food. It’s a lot of classic southern dishes, so lots of fried options, baked breads, and butter lathered in everything. That’s not to say that you can’t find good healthy options like sushi, but you may have to look a little harder. We are the kind of travelers who eat healthy at home so we can eat unhealthy on our trips, so unfortunately we may not have any foods in this video that appeal to you. But we hope you have a great trip!
