About Burnt Ends Barbecue

Burnt Ends Barbecue isn’t fast food pretending to be BBQ. It’s the real thing - smoked low, served hot, and built for people who show up hungry. We do barbecue the way it’s meant to be done: brisket with bark, ribs with bite, burnt ends that... More

This place is Beautiful & it is HUGE! The service was super quick we were also the only ones there at the time I was craving some nachos & they did not disappoint! They make their own tortilla chips homemade BBQ sauce along with all other sauces the salsa was homemade along with the sour cream!! Absolutely delicious! I added pulled pork & omg my belly was very happy!! My partner got the dirty poutine on top of Mac & cheese topped with breadcrumbs omg soo good!! I dont drink alcohol & was excited to see all the options they had besides just water soda they even do mock tails without the alchy. I got the dirty soda that tasted like a creamsicle soo good. We will be going back!! They do parties they do take out they have pool tables & corn hole its a great spot!!

Best bbq around. This is my favorite place for wings, the pulled chicken and pork are excellent and the burnt ends are A+. They have great packages for a family or crowds. This is the piggy platter (on special that night) minus the mac... our daughter grabbed it before I could even take a pic!

Carli was amazing. I recommend you request her as your server. Food was smoky flavored. Mac n cheese was great. Probably best butter i ever had for the cornbread.Over all impressed. They had corn hole and kids connect four. That was cool 😎

We stopped in for lunch and had a fantastic meal. Smash burgers, pulled pork, mac and cheese, and a salad. Everything was incredible - the pulled pork was perfectly cooked with delicious flavor, the mac and cheese had the perfect consistency, and the smash burgers were perfectly seasoned and cooked. Heck, even the salad was great with crunchy greens and plenty of veggies. Highly recommend! Also want to note how friendly and welcoming our server was, and we got to meet the owner. All in all a great spot!

Few things: 1) I ate here when it was in Lewiston and now at the new location where Tin Tin Buffet used to be in Auburn. When I told that to the gentleman at the register when I was waiting to be seated with my wife and son, the gentleman said "Thank you, you helped us get here". Definitely made me feel appreciated. 2) I chose pulled chicken platter with coleslaw and baked beans. My wife chose pulled pork with mac-n-cheese and chili. Both were served with cornbread and honeybutter. All of it was good. -Cornbread was not like regular kind where it's dry and grainy. It was more like a quickbread with cornmeal added. Easy to eat. -The meat was great! (You add the sauces on the meat) -The chili, to me was spicy but really good. They used pulled meat and beans for the chili instead of hamburg.
