A few steps away, Smokin’ Outlaws BBQ brings a different kind of tradition to the Warehouse District—one rooted in fire, smoke, and competition-level craft.
Mike Arnold is no stranger to barbecue, competing in KCBS Master Series BBQ competitions as well as major events around the world, bringing that experience back into what’s served here in Regina.
Arnold describes the approach as intentionally old-school, connecting directly to historic cooking methods.
“We are cooking with 100 per cent wood here, which is how they did barbecue 150 years ago,” says Mike Arnold, Owner of Smokin’ Outlaws BBQ.
Inside one of the District’s heritage buildings, the space matches the method—built on technique, patience, and a commitment to doing things the traditional way.
That approach has earned serious recognition on the world stage, including 1st place ribs at the American Royal World Championship, along with the title of International Grand Champion at the American Royal World Championships and multiple other competitive wins.
For visitors, the menu leans into that same award-winning craft, with champion rib trays a standout choice, or larger group options like The Pit Feast—featuring pork ribs, brisket, pulled pork, turkey slices, sausage links, and three sides designed for sharing.
It’s a standout stop for bold flavours and a distinctly local take on barbecue, and a strong addition to any walk through the neighbourhood’s food scene.
