  • The one smokehouse on this list, and it is here because the tamales are their own annual event rather than a side dish. D Magazine has covered the Deep Ellum pit's holiday run since 2018, when the order sheet ran to pulled pork bathed in salsa verde and brisket spiked with salsa roja. The Dallas Observer reports the 2025 pre-order menu keeps both, sold by the dozen, with pints of salsa as an add-on. Order the brisket, and take the salsa verde.
