The brisket and the sausage were excellent. Try the baked beans, they are cooked with lots of meat.

I am from Virginia. The pulled pork is authentic. The hand chopped burger is my go to, but the turkey legs that they have been doing are the bomb!! Great, friendly service. Very lucky to have this gem in North Burnaby.

Okay so we have been here twice now. My husband and I love it! I am positive if we lived in the city of Vancouver we would frequent so much more. I look forward to my next visit!

Absolutely Fabulous! I went here on my wife’s suggestion due to my affinity for smoked meats and this place is spot on. The brisket and pulled pork are not overly salty while still being flavourful and juicy, and the Barbecue Sauce finishes it off perfectly. Their Chicken and Italian Sausage are equally wonderful. I also ordered a side of Onion Rings and they included some sauce to dip them in and it was warm. Attention to a small detail like the flavour enhancement of warm, not cold from the fridge, Barbecue dipping sauce shows their passion for the food they make. Staff are friendly and attentive and ready to answer any questions you have in a polite manor. I will absolutely be returning...and I’m bringing friends.

We tried to come here on Monday, but it was closed. We were not busy today, so we stopped by. We both chose to order 2 meat plates, I ordered the sausage and brisket and the husband ordered the chicken and pulled pork with a side of onion rings. The meat was nice and juicy and lots of flavours. The BBQ sauce was warm as well. We will be back.

PULLED PORK SANDWICH! Must try!! Always order to go order and they are very consistent. Good amount of fries, just a lil bit less of onion rings if you order combo. But in general very good experience.

Used skip to get delivery. I ordered the bbq combo with pulled pork and brisket and a side of the pasta salad. The pork was sweet and tender,the briskit was juicy and delicious and that pasta salad was a flavorful creamy delight. All served on a bed of fries that kept their crispiness and were salted to perfection. Steep at $30( with tip) for 1 but well worth it and I will definatley be a regular.

Definitely not the best BBQ place in town but their stuff is pretty good, especially given that there aren't a lot of BBQ places in the neighborhood. Tried the pulled pork and ribs, both are well cooked and not overly sweet. Good service and friendly staff.

Decent BBQ joint. Had the daily special with 2 different meats. The ribs were good, smoky and sticky but weren't very meaty unfortunately. I also had a rib end that was very dried out. All in all however the food was a nice change of pace. I will never complain about smoked meats!

I always see this place across the street everytime I go for ice cream at Glenburn Soda. Finally got the chance to try it.

It was delicious and I loved it. Enjoyed it much more than Memphis Blues.

My only regret was not getting their ribs. Sitting at the table beside the kitchen, we saw all the orders ahead of us... and boy did those ribs look deadly. Will definitely be coming back to try those next time!

Service is great. The ribs are juicy and meaty. I hate getting ribs that are mostly fat and bone. The burgers are also delicious, although I wish they werent so pricy.

Hidden Gem. Was looking for something different and scanned Urbanspoon and decided to give this place a try. We are glad we did. Small place and if you arrive during meal hours expect to wait. We got there early and sat down right away. We ordered rib combo with beef brisket. It came with fries and baked beans. My gal had the mushroom cheese burger. The orders only took about 15 minutes and was worth it. There was to go orders being handled at the same time and it didn't make a difference. The ribs were tasty and just the right amount of spice and crispness. The brisket was very tasty and very tender. Fries and beans were all good. My gals burger was stacked and she seemed to enjoy the beef burger. With a lemon aid and a root beer, the bill was $37. Service was just fine and I have no complaints. We will be back again.

Local BBQ. We finally had a chance to try out Burgers Etc today. Funnily enough rainbow crab did not try a burger. She had the smothered fries with pulled pork. She loved it, she ate every french fry on her plate and for someone who does not love bbq sauce she raved. It is a sweeter, tomato based sauce with a good kick to it.
I had the combo, which happen to be on sale! 13.99$ for 2 meats fries and coleslaw.( The usual price is 16.99$.
I got pork ribs and beef brisket. I really enjoyed it. I too loved this sauce. ( I liked this sauce better than the sauce at Hog Shack) But I like the brisket at Hog Shack better. The ribs were spareribs, the meat came off the bone, and had a great bark and good chew to them.
We will go back for sure, and we both want to try the burgers.

One of my favourite burgers :)
I'll have to start writing these things from a laptop so that I can include pics of the food.
Anyways, it's a great bordering on perfect, burger experience. Why not perfect? There is a slight resistance on the tear off. The bun is not as easy a bite as the ingredients within.
When a burger is jacked full of fresh tomatoes, lettuce and onion goodness, I like for the stack to stay put and not travel outside of the bun. A toasting to the bun probably would have created the rough surface texture needed to contain all the ingredients.
The meat is fantastic! Plenty of it and you choose your doneness.
Medium rare please!
The service as always is just right. The hostess who's been there for quite some time has always been a pleasure to deal with. The owners, a husband and wife team really have this place running well.
Keep up the good work and I will always return :)

Awesome Food!. Visting Vancouver and a couple of friends took me out for dinner here. Place was small, but the food was great. I ordered the Smoked Spicy Sausage Burger. To me it was not spicy, but it was still good! Big portions! Did not even finish and had to take it home. One of my friend ordered the combo platter and his prtion was big as well. The other guy ordered the beef brisket burger and that looked amazing as well. Would love to try other items on the menu if I ever visit Vancouver again.

Vege Option. I only ever get the veggie burger and fries: very tasty and the option of extra toppings is a great bonus. It would be great if they could do fish burgers!

This is a great place, we go here often. They really understand proper BBQ. I first started going here because they had great burgers, but their pulled pork or beef brisket sandwiches are fantastic! The sides are good too, I feel pretty satisfied when I get good coleslaw with my sandwich. Consistently excellent food and friendly service.

Meat yes, staff yes, sides no. We'd been hearing about this place since moving to the area. Last Saturday we wanted something quick, good, and moderately priced, so away we went.

First of all, the staff - loved them! For a place that serves most of their meals in red plastic baskets, the staff was great! They checked on us without hovering, made sure we had whatever we wanted, and when I asked about our waitresses' accent, had a lovely chat that wasn't too short, wasn't too long, and generally made us feel as if she was happy to have talked to us. The guys doing the cooking were just as personable. We definitely go places for the food, but given the scarcity of great service in the GVRD, it's always high priority for us.

Next, the meat. This is definitely the reason to go here. The prices were decent, and my husband had the rib/chicken wing combo. The BBQ sauce definitely tasted hand-made, and although I generally don't like the taste of 'smoke' in a BBQ sauce, this one had such a good balance of tanginess to sweet to tomato that I was happy to overlook the smoked taste. Mr. Man (my husband) thought it was top-notch. At least, that's what I deduced from his "Can't talk.....eating......" response. The wings were grilled, and I actually stole 2 of them, which is 1 more than normal. The ribs weren't overcooked, were nice and tender, and didn't try to make up for cooking mishaps by smothering them in sauce.

I wasn't terribly hungry, and opted for the poutine, since I have heavy vegetarian tendencies and really can't be bothered with all the chewing that meat takes! This was less exciting. The fries were frozen (no fresh-cooked taste or texture), and the toppings were ok, but nothing spectacular, with the whole thing being a little soggier and blander than I like. Mind you, there was certainly enough of it - we both had some, and there was still some to take home. The sides with Mr. Man's meal were the fried mushrooms and potato salad. The mushrooms were good (if a titch small), and the potato salad was a bit bland for my taste. I was hoping for the same savoury vs tangy flavour combo as the BBQ sauce, but this was more mayo and less zip than I like.

That being said, will we go back? HellsYa. We walked out of there full, happy, and spent under $40 including a drink each and a 25% tip. The BBQ sauce alone will be enough to pull me over to the chicken wing contingent for out next trip, and we'll see what Mr. Man thinks of the burgers. I'll keep you posted.

As the name says.... Good food, fast service...the only complaint is that they do not accept credit cards. Cash or debit only! Other than that, great place.

The patty tastes juicy, fresh and delicious. As for the perfectly cooked fried egg, the yolk runs down the burger but does not seep through to the very bottom of the bun.

We went in search for a restaurant that serves barbecue meats at the caliber of "Memphis Blues" (insert link), but at a fraction of their prices. A place where we could get quality barbecue all year round and not go broke over it. A google search popped up "Burgers Etc;" and off we went to give it a try. It is a small shop along Hastings, in Burnaby. Their fiery logo is what attracts your attention, a three coloured fire on the window and one on the awning. Inside the shop is pretty standard. You seat yourselves, servers take your order, and food is brought to your table.   Their menu is classic bbq style. Meats in platters with sides or meat in buns with fries. And if you don't like any of the regulars, craft your own burger with your choice of protein, toppings, and condiments. Or if that is too much work rely on their list of customer favourites that includes a burger with mozzarella and pineapple and one with mushroom and sautéed onions.   The best part is they also offer milkshake

It's a BBQ house, so you can't go wrong. It's a smaller sized joint with great jazz decor adorning the walls and a laid back atmosphere. I quite enjoyed just sitting by the window watching people pass by, killing time until the burger came at which point I shut everything else off and submitted to my primal instincts.

We decided to have BBQ for our New Years dinner and based on the reviews, tried Butchers Block. We tried the Carnivore Platter. We had 6 starving mouths to feed. We'll the Platter was stunning! More than enough protein for everyone. And we still have left overs. Everyone's favorite was the beef brisket and ribs. But all the meats were tasty and juicy. Platter came with purple coleslaw, macaroni salad, side of fries and beans. The beans were a hit as well. Platter also came with corn bread. That was a bit dry but what corn bread isn't? Must try for big party's.

Great BBQ! I tried this place back in 2020 and thought it was average but I tried it again recently and was pleasantly surprised as it had improved a lot. I ordered the beef brisket sandwich with the bbq beans and it was great. The meat was moist and flavorful and the portion size was pretty good for the price. If I was craving BBQ I would definitely come back here again!

Small restaurant with a myriad of meat cuts. Chicken, brisket, pulled pork, belly bites, etc. They have beers on tap and special cocktails as well. Service was very friendly and efficient. Free 1 hr street parking out in front. Food was good, make sure to ask your fries well done as ours were a bit undercooked!

The food is just amazing, coleslaw to the beef brisket, it’s so flavoured. Brisket is not dried. Not many BBQ places around but this has to be it. Service is great too. This reminds me of the south and how BBQ should be.

I miss Tony Roma's - NOT! Butchers Block BBQ is the best place for ribs in Metro Vancouver! The ribs melt into your mouth. I haven't experienced good ribs like this for ages. Good service, fair price; highly recommended!
