The Pig & Rooster Smokehouse

The vibe of the bar is «bro-​ey» but I came here for trivia and it was a Wednesday, so it wasn’t so bad. My friends ordered the pork nachos, and I didn’t get to try them, but from the look on their faces I really need to go back in my near future and scarf up some of that deliciousness!

Great spot! I’m a big fan of the shuffleboard table

My boyfriend and I stopped by for some food and a few drinks before the Super Bowl. We were thankful that the bar wasn’t crazy packed! We ordered the pulled pork nachos and when they came out I knew that sharing them was a big mistake. They were delicious, but boy was I wrong. Between the two of us we couldn’t finish them. This bar has a fun atmosphere with a bunch of activities if you want to get out of your seat. We got chicken tenders to go and left the box on our table when we left. The bartender was nice enough to come running out with our box of food. Very friendly people and great atmosphere.

Came here for dinner because I got stood up and needed to eat. After half an hour with the pulled pork nachos, I’ve realized I’ve had a better time with these nachos than any date. As much as I want this entire giant bowl of delicious nachos in my stomach, I don’t think I’ll be able to finish. It will probably take me 3 meals to eat all of this, and that makes me very happy.

Nice place to hang out and have a brew or a drink. I LOVE wings but because P and R smokes their wings the wings are dried out like jerky. I had a turkey sandwich and it was just OK. The roll was stale. The bartenders are great, the place is clean and everything is reasonably priced.

If you are like me and enjoy the the laid back atmosphere and affordability of a dive bar, but the cleanliness, and classiness or a more high-​end establishment, you will love this place. They have a large selection of bourbons which is always a big thumbs up for the bf. Truthfully I have never eaten a meal here, but I have had some bites here and there. Their mozzarella sticks are some of the best I have ever had, and their wings are pretty darn tasty as well. I see some complaints about how small their menu is, but it is a small place with only a few tables, so I am not sure what they were expecting. If none of that convinces you, they have trivia on Wednesday nights, extra large jenga and shuffle board.

The wings here are possibly the best wings I have ever had in my entire life. I’m 270 so I’ve had my fair share of wings. The wings are smoked which gives an amazing smokey flavor. Service was great as well. If I lived in Baltimore I’d be a regular. I will make sure I come here when I am in town hence forth.

I’ve had a few good carry out experiences:
The menu may be small but they serve relatively late, points for me.
Very friendly on the phone, orders are correct, substitutions are accommodated for with no up charge.
I recommend the turkey sandwich, pulled pork, and the Mac and cheese (unique taste). I got a side of corn on the cob once and it was not good, possible I just got a bad ear of corn but I probably won’t try the corn again until next season.

Great neighborhood bar. Awesome prices, friendly crowd, and there is shuffleboard and a foosball table. The only downside is that there is much seating.

Good hide away spot! Stopped expecting a full bar/​restaurant. This place has a great curb side appeal and a neat bar, but not a place I’d call a restaurant. The bartender was friendly and helpful but seemed more interested talking with his friends than anything else. The food, I will say, was amazing. I highly recommend the bacon wrapped hot dog. It was out of this world. The sandwiches were amazing — honestly you can’t go wrong. Not a huge menu which I think helps the quality, but it would have been nice if they had a few more sandwich options. If you ever have a second, I would recommend stopping in.

My reaction is eh, just ok. Nothing special.
This place is right around the corner from my house so naturally I was rooting for an off-​the-​square restaurant to succeed! Plus, they are recently under new management so I was pretty excited to try P&R.
After going there a few nights ago I was sadly disappointed… The menu is small, and in my opinion over priced. $ 12 for a hamburger, and that doesn’t include toppings!!! After all said and done, you’ll end up spending more than $ 20 for a cheeseburger, cheap beer and tip. They’re trying too hard to be a smoke house and it just doesn’t have that vibe.
So maybe they’re going for the dive bar crowd? And I do enjoy a good dive bar, especially ones featuring local cuisine! But in my opinion P&R missed the mark on dive bar too… When you walk in, the first thing you notice is that most of the walls are bare. No colorful neon bar signs, old flare, or worn out bar stools. There is just nothing exciting about this place… SPRUCE UP THE JOINT!
If you want a good burger for less money, try The Chausser or Cardinal Tavern (both are within a few blocks)

Nice open space with plenty of room to stretch out. The craft beer selection wasn’t great but Coors Original was on draft and you don’t see that everywhere (thumbs up). Golden Tee and shuffle board table were pluses, with a bunch of TV’s so you’ll be able to watch whatever you want.
The food was where they lost me.
We got a burger, nachos, mozzarella sticks, and wings.
I didn’t try the burger and fries, but my friend said it was pretty good.
The mozzarella sticks were average, but the sauce was water thin.
The wings were definitely smoked, but the buffalo sauce had no flavor.
The nachos were terrible. It looks like a couple of other reviewers had said the same thing. They probably need to change the recipe or take it off the menu altogether.

Nice neighborhood bard. Friendly service and interesting bar food. They rotate out most of the food, but they seem to have nachos and brisket a lot. Not too crowded and always have a few good beers on tap.

In the winter, few things warm you up better than a bowl of chili. My roommate was craving a bowl of chili for dinner so a quick search pulled up The Pig & Rooster Smokehouse in Canton. The Pig & Rooster is owned by the same people who own The Chasseur which I’ve previously been to and loved. The space inside is more of a bar with a few arcade games and a few tables.
When we went, there was only one person working the bar so service was a little slow, to no fault of the bartender, he was doing a great job. After briefly looking over the menu, my roommate went with an order of the Smoked Brisket Chili. The chili had hunks of smoked brisket which were tender and delicious, there were also some beans, cheese, chives and sour cream. This chili was a little on the spicy side and it was one of the better/​heartier ones we’ve had around the city.
With the chili, my roommate went for an order of the Cornbread. This was a great accompaniment to the chili for soaking up the meaty goodness. This cornbread was a little on the sweet side but still very good and complimented the spiciness from the chili well.
For my meal, I went with the Smoked Ancho Chili and Espresso Rubbed Brisket Sandwich. The brisket was incredibly tender and flavorful. I tossed some cole slaw onto the sandwich and it really came together. I was hoping the ancho chili rub would make the sandwich slightly spicier but it was still awesome. It also came with a side of fries which were delicious but nothing noteworthy.
If you’re looking for some great BBQ while enjoying a few beers in Canton, you should definitely head over to The Pig & Rooster Smokehouse.

Their brisket sammich is damn good! And I recommend going Thursdays when it’s $ 5 off!

Although I’ve only had the chance to sample some beers and grab some nachos, P&R had this little piggy wanting to set camp til the roosters crow! Picture this: smoked brisket chili sitting majestically atop a mountain of nachos, cheese, and all the fixins. Mouth watering? It should be. We stopped by for the second half of the Ravens game this past Sunday, and in addition to the knock-​you-​socks-​off nachos, this spot has a really nice relaxed pub feel that makes it easy to make an afternoon of it. I can’t wait to come back for one of their weeknight specials (think free tenders & fries for Monday night football, build your own nachos and $ 4 mystery bourbons on Tuesdays, discount slushies and sammies on Thursdays, and off course, game day specials on Sundays). Careful, kids: you may have just found your home away from home.

My husband and I were debating whether to go to this restaurant or The Chasseur down the street and decided to give it a try because I heard positive reviews. It is a small bar/​restaurant and a friendly bartender took our food and drink order since there were not too many people. We had their smoked pulled pork and nachos with smoked brisket chili. Both dishes were huge and delicious and I could definitely taste smoky flavor in the meat. They had a good selection of local beer and the bartender was very knowledgable about the beer and brewery and made a great recommendation. Satisfying dinner for two and two beers came under $ 30 — a great deal in our neighborhood. I recommend this place for a low-​key dinner in the neighborhood.

Wednesday night, Rib Night. Come hungry.
I got the full rack of ribs with the beans, slaw and handcut fries.
Ribs: cooked to perfection with just the right rub and barbecue sauce.
Coleslaw: I dont know what the seasoning was, but it put all other coleslaws to shame.
Baked Beans: Sweet and full of flavor.
Hand cut fries: just like the boardwalk.
All in all for $ 22.00 bucks, it was completely worth it. I ate half and am looking forward to enjoying the rest this evening.
Kudos to Pig and Rooster! Check it out!

This was my first visit to Pig and Rooster. They’re owned by the same people that own the restaurant up the street ‘The chasseur’. I decided to give P&R a try not only because I enjoyed the food that I’ve had at their other restaurant, but also because their management/​staff are very active with the community and are always reaching out to accommodate people’s event needs and special requests.
I went with my girlfriend and two of our friends on a Saturday afternoon shortly after they opened for the day. The bar has an extremely fresh new remodel done to it with all kinds of fun bar-​activities like shuffle board, foosball, golden tee, etc. all of which were brand new. In addition to the new activities available to use, they also had a set of TVs lining the walls (Yes, they have NFL Sunday ticket so you can catch tons of games) They frequently have happy hour specials with discounts, so check their website or give them a ring to find out what’s on special for the day.
They had about 4 beers on draft, I went with a Yards beer. The menu was limited, I could see a picky eater having a difficult time deciding on something, but luckily we all found something on the menu that we were interested in. My friend and I got the Smoked BBQ Pulled pork sandwiches (He got potato salad, I got fries with a side of honey mustard), my girlfriend got the cheese burger, and our other friend ordered the Italian Smoked Pork sandwich. After we ordered we played a game of shuffle board while waiting.
The food came out in a reasonable time and the service was friendly– The Smoked BBQ Pulled pork sandwich I had was really tasty. The bun was nice and soft but able to stay together while eating the sandwich and the pork was cooked perfectly to where it fell apart as you ate it. The sandwich also had Crispy onion straws on it that added an awesome touch. The sauce that was used was a tiny bit spicy and was really flavorful. The burger that my girlfriend had was cooked the way she wanted and was good as well. The hamburger you could tell was handmade and not a frozen patty due to its large thick/​round shape, good medium cook to it, and its fresh taste. I’d definitely eat both of these items again in a heartbeat. The Italian smoked pork sandwich came on an awesomely soft baguette but I think this might have been the least favorite of the three sandwiches we had– I only had a couple of bites of it, but the flavors of its contents seemed to combine together into a slightly lackluster taste. The bread to filling ratio was little bit unbalanced too so even though the bread was tasty, the sandwich tasted mostly like the baguette.
I also got Honey mustard on the side to dip my fries in and this was one of the better honey mustards I’d had in a while– It tastes more like honey than mustard but has whole grain mustard seeds in it. I definitely suggest you order a side of this to go with your meal.
All said and done, this place I suspect will not remain a secret for long. The great happy hour specials and game day specials along with the great food and brand new feel will appeal to a broad range of personalities and will serve as a great space to get together with friends and have some beers. I’ve also heard that they have a shuffle board league that sounds interesting and is worth looking into if you enjoy shuffle board!

Stopped in on a Thursday because they advertised $ 5 off sandwiches on their Facebook page. It was empty when we first arrived, but filled up as the evening went on.
I got the pulled pork sandwich and enjoyed it — big chunks of tender meat, rather than pulled/​shreds like usual, but very tasty, with good spice. Fries were standard but yummy, and it also comes with cole slaw or potato salad, both of which were unique and complemented the BBQ. Husband got the Italian pork sandwich and while it wasn’t what he’s used to (thicker cuts instead of thinly sliced), he gave it a thumbs up.
Bottom line: little neighborhood place with good food, friendly bartender, and nice specials (sandwiches were only $ 7-​$ 8 after the $ 5 discount, which was a great deal). Glad we tried it!
