Smokey Joe's owner Joe Godin said there are still some tables open for reservations for Saturday night's musical guest performance at the kosher BBQ restaurant.

Yale Strom and his band Hot P'Stromi missed out on performing at the Teaneck eatery last year due to a snowstorm, but they're set to amaze dinner guests with their mix of Gypsy, Jewish, Hasidic and Balkan music at 8 and 9:30 p.m. Saturday.

"Hot P'Stromi and Smokey Joe's go together like that other favorite combination – smoked lox and bagels," said Godin. "Yale is going to be rocking the house with his klezmer band while we dish up our BBQ specialties this Saturday night."

Call the restaurant to reserve a table. There will be a $5 cover charge per guest.
