A group of us were attending a conference in the Lake Norman area and were looking for a place to eat that was opened after 9pm and could accommodate a party of 25. I was very pleased that Smoke Modern BBQ quickly seated us, service was excellent, and the food was good. My husband and I order the 4 meat combo platter which included ribs, brisket, pulled chicken and pulled pork. Everything was cooked perfectly. As an appetizer, we order smoked wings and devilish eggs. I like "smokey" flavored foods so the wings were as I expected and good. If you don't like smoked foods, then do not order the wings as they were extra smokey. If you like spicy sauces, they have a Carolina and a Texas BBQ sauce that were very tasty. Our sides included mac and cheese, beans and cole slaw. All of those items were good. To finish the night, we had the brownie dessert and it was very moist and good. The portions are very large as we took home much of the food. The sweet tea was not too sweet which is the way that I like it. I would definitely eat here again.
