Berndt Ends BBQ is hands down some of the best barbecue I’ve ever had. Everything about this place is genuine — from the food to the people behind it. The burger I had recently was absolutely incredible — perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with bold, smoky flavor. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients and truly care about what they serve. The jalapeño poppers wrapped in bacon are a must-try. Crispy, flavorful, with just the right kick — seriously unforgettable. Their green beans and coleslaw are next level. These simple Southern staples are kept true to tradition but executed so well they become unforgettable. Beyond the food, what also makes Berndt Ends BBQ special is the heart behind it. The owners are a kind, welcoming couple who genuinely care about their customers and the co

Passing through on my way to Lake County and looking to take some BBQ home for supper. I got the sampler platter with 4 meats, 3 sides, Texas toast and two drinks. I added two additional meats and a turkey sandwich since we’re feeding 4. All the meats are so tender, juicy and delicious! The owner gave me a sample of turkey and brisket. We enjoyed their bbq beans, coleslaw and Mac and cheese. I’d be willing to drive the hour and 20 for the food again.

Worth the drive if you're wanting to experience great bbq. Ribs full of flavor and very tender. Datil Beans are also amazing.

★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Roberts · Oct 2024

Food was amazing. Platters give plenty of food for the price. Brisket and jalapeno cheddar sausage was delicious. Nice dining area inside and outside. Service was wonderful. Beef rib special when available is worth it. Picked up the rib by the bone and the meat slid right off. Bacon jalapeno poppers and smoked deviled eggs are a great starter.
