As per usual, I got two tacos and a side. My first taco was the Brisket Taco, with sauteed onions, hot peppers, and BBQ mustard sauce, which was the remaining taco on the old menu that I had yet to try. As expected, it was very tasty.

My second taco was the Chicken Apple Taco. I had first read about this taco on Señorita Cibulka's blog when it was offered as a special item earlier in the fall. It sounded delicious, and I was disappointed that it was not available during my two previous visits to Smoke. But I was very excited to see that the Chicken Apple Taco has now made its way to the regular menu!

And I loved it! The combination of chicken, apple, bacon, cheddar cheese, and smoked jalapeno mayo was just fabulous. I think this is my favorite Smoke taco so far!
For my side, I couldn't help but get the Mac n Cheese with Bacon again because I had been thinking about it a lot pretty much since I had it on my last visit. The price has gone up somewhat since Smoke unveiled its new menu, but the portion is also bigger. I actually had to take most of this home.

My dining companion, Señorita Cibulka, got the new Frito Pie. That's in addition to tacos, of course. I got a few bites and a photo. This is very tasty, and be warned: it is quite large and filling. Definitely an item more for sharing than for enjoying on your own. Unless you have a big appetite.

All in all, it was another highly satisfying meal at Smoke.
