| - Herbivores beware! This is NOT a place you want to try!
I had a craving for some awesome bbq meat, and this place was right at the top of my list to try and did not disappoint.
My other half and I came here on Wednesday right after work around 6 and the place was pretty quiet but as we eat our meal it was bustling with take out orders. When you first enter the first thing that hit me was the variety of options. Their menu did take up nearly an entire wall after all. There was plenty of seating which is awesome to see. Bbq, and wings are inherently "finger food", and the worse thing is to be rubbing elbows with your friend while trying to put a rib in your mouth. There was plenty of space to spread out, and spread out I did as I eat (so filling!)
Right when we came in we were cheerfully greeted, and was briefly walked through he options of the menu. We ended up getting a platter for 2 as we wanted a good sampling of "everything", had 3 sides (mac and cheese, beans and corn bread) as well as an extra side of cheddar jalapeno smoked sausage.
We were informed that it would be a bit of a wait as the pulled pork and pulled beef brisket was going to be freshly prepared, as they don't like to keep those things "pre made" through out the day, which I can really appreciate.
The platter for two was just perfect. It came with pulled pork, pulled and sliced brisket, 1 lb of wings, half rack of ribs and two sides (mac and cheese and beans) and 2 drinks.
We also got an extra sausage, corn bread and also some plain white thick cut bread.
Let me tell you, my craving for meat was completely and utterly satisfied.
All the meat was tasty, moist and fall of the bone filled with smoky flavor. The side of carbs perfectly complemented the meat. On the table they also have some in house bbq sauces (hickory, original and honey mustard). Each was pretty much a perfect complement to all the meat.
What really earned this place a special spot in my books is the absolutely friendly unpretentious service. We were checked in on quite a few times, walked through different options, and the server was kind enough to also give us an extra piece of freshly baked corn bread hot out of the oven! At first the corn bread was a tad lacking in flavor, but the fresh hot one definitely hit the spot! So try and make sure you get your corn bread hot!
I could go on about this place, but will likely run out of space.
I'm going to just add on a final note that i would absolutely go back without hesitation.
Oh and they also have AYCE from Thurs to Sat from 5 onwards!
What other bbq place even has this??
This place has spoiled me and set the bar quite high for bbq places in the GTA.
