What happened after Man v. Food?
Chimneyville Smokehouse was a barbecue restaurant and catering business on High Street in Jackson, Mississippi, serving smoked meats and sides to downtown diners as well as hosting off-site catering for local events. A Yelp listing for the High Street address, updated in April 2026, marks Chimneyville Smokehouse as permanently closed, and a separate Yelp listing for its catering arm at the same address carries the same closed status. Yellow Pages also lists the High Street address with no current operating information. According to a Mississippi Memories Facebook post, the smokehouse, once a fixture near downtown Jackson, had closed by 2017. No dated source found in this check shows the location reopened or trading under a new name in the years since, and the business does not appear to maintain an active website today.
