Bob (newenglandcamper) recently posted this review on the forum, and has allowed us to post it as an article. We have enjoyed the Yankee Smokehouse several times while camping in the area, but I guess I never sat down and wrote an official review. Thanks Bob for allowing us to post your review!
Yankee Smokehouse is located at the Jct. of 16 & 25 in West Ossipee, NH 603-539-RIBS (7427) - Web site: http://www.yankeesmokehouse.com/
From Bob’s Forum post:
Patty, the kids, and I enjoyed a nice dinner with a new seasonal friend of ours at the Yankee Smokehouse in West Ossipee, NH. I shared a whole rack of ribs (~$20) with my company which in my opinions was enough food for 3 hungry men or a family of 4. The ribs were good, tender, and tasty and was served with a warm bottle of extra bbq sauce. However, during this visit, I realized that I’m not exactly a ribs lover and politely offered the left overs to our guest (which there was plenty). I also had ordered a side of cole slaw and a side of steak fries which was really too big for me to eat. The cole slaw was very good and had a light mustard season to it and the fries were excellent as well. The kids enjoyed their chicken fingers ($5.99) and mozerella sticks ($6.99) but I thought the prices for the kids meal were slightly steep.
While I thought my meal was just good, Patty on the other hand really enjoyed her Smoked BBQ chicken dinner ($10.99). For sides, she had the baked beans, 1/2 ear of corn, and some french fries. Each meal was served with Texas Toast. Patty really enjoyed this and she knows her breads!
We visited in the off-season and found that the service was excellent (especially after compared to our last visit to a local establishment)! Not only to us but to the couple that was sitting across from us. Very accommodating.
As expected, this is NOT a fancy restaurant (i.e., jeans recommended) but is very clean and warm (both for a cold night and to enjoy a pleasant evening with your family or friends). The decor is neatly decorated with cute little piggies everywhere: ornaments, wallpaper, curtains, etc. This place is EXTREMELY popular during motorcycle season and summer season.
If you want tasty BBQ food, BIG portions, at a good price the Yankee Smokehouse won’t disappoint! Just driving by and experiencing the aroma from your car makes you want to stop in. We did tonight on our way up to DB but already had dinner planned. We will definately go back! I would like to try some of their beef and chicken dishes.
If I could change something—I wish they would shake up their sides dishes and offer some new items (e.g., fresh veggies, mashed or baked potatoes, squash, seasonal items, etc.)

Personally, I love the Smoke House. Definitely a place to hit up. After living in Ossipee for a school year I finally made and frequently miss the cornbread. The staff was always very friendly and efficient...give it a try!
