Prime Smoked Meats in Valparaiso, Indiana, is a Texas-style smokehouse that prides itself on authentic barbecue crafted using locally sourced Indiana oak wood, with no gas or electricity used in the smoking process. Founded in 2018 by pitmaster Jason Pelzel, the establishment provides a modern twist on traditional recipes, inspired by the legendary smoked brisket of the Pelzel family's roots in Pilot Point, Texas.
The menu features three scratch-made barbecue sauces and a variety of smoked meats, available in limited quantities to ensure freshness. Guests can enjoy a rotating selection of cold beer while experiencing a commitment to quality and a genuine barbecue atmosphere.
