Nexus Blue Smokehouse

The best BBQ in Albuquerque is right here at Nexus Blue Smokehouse – and we can prove it. It's no mistake that "blue" is right up there in our name. It's because we know the "secret." Blue smoke equals great BBQ.

You may think that plumes of smoke billowing from the barbeque means smoky flavor imparted into the meat. Not quite. What you are actually after are wisps of thin blue smoke. That is the indicator that your fire is not too hot or transferring too much carbon. The char on your meat should indeed taste smoky, but the wrong kind of char tastes bitter. Blue smoke means the flavor of the smoke and wood chips are clean and crisp and the meat inside the barbeque is going to come out mouth watering and tender.
