The food
Barbecue and smoked meat, available by the pound or stacked on a bun. Sides include pickles and peppers, grilled cornbread, chili made with beef chuck and burnt ends—there’s even a kale salad. Takeout and delivery is available through Foodora, UberEats, and Skip The Dishes.
The grilled cornbread is made with both creamed and fresh corn, cheese, and jalapeños. $3.50.
A small caesar salad. $5.50.
Using vegetables from 100km Foods, Tamarack Farms and Cookstown Greens, the BBQ Roots, Grains + Seeds Bowl includes barley, wheat berries, rye berries, quinoa, pepitas, sunflower seeds, kasha, fresh mint, basil and a mixture of root vegetables. $6 for a small. (Shown here with a beef chuck and burnt end chili. $9.)
The BBQ smoked chicken is brined for 12 hours, honey dipped, then smoked for another few hours. $24 for a whole bird.
The BBQ smoked chicken sandwich features six ounces of shredded smoked chicken meat coated in Beauty’s white sauce and topped with bread and butter pickles, lettuce and tomatoes. $11.
Inspired by Walsh’s Montreal roots, the dry-cured, week-brined, six-hour smoked “Torontreal” smoked meat is available for $26 a pound.
It also comes on a Martin’s potato roll with yellow mustard. $12. Four-hour smoked baby-back ribs are finished with a house-made barbecue-cola sauce. $18 a pound.
Overnight-smoked beef brisket is $26 a pound.
The two desserts on offer at the moment are served on sticks: chocolate-covered frozen key lime pie ($5.50) and frozen s’mores cheesecake ($6).
A spread.

The drinks
A selection of bottled beer, canned wine, coolers, craft sodas, juice and pop.
The space
The fast-casual restaurant has limited seating inside, but a bunch of picnic tables on the patio make up for that. Fun fact: one whole wall is made of boards from old cornhole games.
