Hayden Block Smoke & Whiskey is a bbq joint in the heart of Kensington, Calgary, Alberta. Smoking our meat from 10-14 hours, people love our brisket but we have a selection of meats, trays and sides t…
Loved our meal and would definitely order again.
The Bacon Mac N Cheese is spicy but delicious, even heated up well on the second day as the portions are large and good value for money.
The Chopped Brisket Sandwich is a generous portion and has decent flavor. But we would love the option of a dipping sauce/au jus or even some horseradish mayo to kick it up a notch.

The ribs were fall off the bone delicious, although only getting 3 ribs seemed pricey? Absolutely loved the flavours and spice levels of the baked beans and bacon mac'n'cheese. The hush puppies though, not my favourite thing and I'm pretty sure it's because of the packaging. They were just full of grease and tasted like pure frying oil. The bottom of the container was just a pool of oil, so maybe some better packaging for these moving forward would be ideal. Overall really enjoyed it!

The burn ends have been consistently fantastic and the brisket is great although quite a bit fatty however, the ribs are exceptionally disappointing as each of the small to medium ribs cost $6 and pale in comparison to the good quality of the burnt ends and any other ribs I've had before.

Really great brisket, very consistently good and nice quantity, and good sauce to go with it. The brisket sandwich is a hard pass for me, too greasy and lacking flavour. Smoked wings aren't amazing. Potato salad is fantastic, burnt ends are fantastic, really good mac and cheese, nice smokestack corn, decent cornbread. Can repeat the brisket and potato salad any day

Bacon Mac n Cheese was awesome with a nice heat level to it. Get the Deep Fried Pickles and Corn Bread & Honey Butter.
Wings portion smaller than it appears in the photo though, even if they are delicious!
