Barbecue Joint Kicks Off 2023 With Weekly Brunch In Lahaska

LAHASKA, PA — Holy 'Que Smokehouse is launching a brand-new BBQ Brunch held every Sunday from 12 to 4 p.m. (or until sold out) beginning on Sunday, January 8.

Pitmaster Tom Peters and his team will be serving a host of imaginative, mouthwatering brunch dishes including Pulled Pork Pancakes, Biscuits & Gravy, and more, in addition to complimentary Mimosa’s and Bloody Mary’s.

Patrons and newcomers can now enjoy platters featuring pork spare ribs (half/full racks), brats, brisket, and pulled pork, as well as toppling sandwiches such as the Brisket Cheesesteak, Texas Joe, or The Holy Grail. They can also opt for morning-inspired dishes such as Biscuits & Gravy (buttermilk biscuits smothered in country sausage gravy), Chicken & Waffles (fried chicken breast served on top of two Belgian waffles), Chopped Brisket Breakfast Tacos (filled with farm-fresh eggs, chopped brisket, and pico de gallo), and Pulled Pork Pancakes (prepared with buttermilk pancakes, topped with pulled pork and served with Vermont maple syrup).

The BBQ Brunch will feature complimentary libations including Mimosa’s, Bloody Mary’s, a variety of beer, and seasonal whiskey-based cocktails. Holy ‘Que Smokehouse is BYOB therefore guests have the option to provide their beverage of choice to pair with the barbeque.

“BBQ Brunch has been in the works for quite some time and we’re stoked to be starting off the new year with this new venture,” said Peters. “Texas-style barbecue is rooted in specific fundamentals and traditions that we take seriously, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for growth and innovation. 2023 is going to be a big year for Holy ‘Que Smokehouse.”

Owned and operated by Pitmaster Tom Peters, Holy ‘Que Smokehouse has been a hit with locals and visitors of nearby Peddler’s Village since opening in November 2020.

Peters is a self-taught Pitmaster who spent six years perfecting the art of Texas-style barbecue following a trip to Austin, Texas where he was inspired by the craft and blown away by the simplicity of this particular cuisine which incorporates three elements: salt, pepper, and smoke. Peters’ menu is heavily influenced by traditional BBQ – incorporating smoked meats, classic sides, and decadent sweet treats typically found in the southern states.

Holy ‘Que Smokehouse operates Friday and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 12 to 4 p.m. or until sold out. BBQ Brunch will be available during service every Sunday starting on January 8.
