Why barbecue enthusiasts and gathering groups choose BLUEGRASS BBQ Albion
Authentic Pit-Smoked Meats & Southern Sides
Pitmaster-style smoked cuts like brisket with smoky bark and melt-in-your-mouth ribs are paired with homestyle Southern mac and cheese and authentic cornbread.
The brisket is unbelievably tender with that perfect smoky bark, the ribs fall straight off the bone, and every bite tastes like it’s come straight from a Texas pitmaster who knows exactly what they’re doing.
Joshua Quarton Specialty Chicken Wings with Tiered Heat Sauces
Guests looking for bold variety can choose from specialized wing heat levels ranging from flavour-packed Hurricane glazes to fiery Reaper sauces.
Heaps of flavour, the accompanying sauces matched great with the wings. The 3rd Degree wings (hottest on menu) tasted great but really not that spicy. The Hurricane wings were amazing!
Peter McMaster Abundant Share Platters Built for Groups
Generous two-person and multi-meat platters arrive loaded with brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and sides, offering abundant portions that easily satisfy hungry groups.
We ordered the Q for 2 with a serve of mac and cheese. The service was on point, and the food arrived promptly.
Patrick Houghton Lively Gatherings & Unpretentious Celebrations
A welcoming, lively dining room provides an easygoing backdrop where parties of friends and family can celebrate over comforting barbecue feast trays.
Party of 11 for my birthday, great food, atmosphere and staff made it a night to remember.
David Patrick Soul-Satisfying Comfort Food Indulgence
Hearty smoked meats and rich, creamy comfort sides deliver deeply indulgent dining satisfaction that leaves diners contentedly stuffed.
The food here is the definition of comfort food. Everything was cooked to perfection, the brisket melted in my mouth.
Jasmine Genuine Taste of US Southern Smokehouse Heritage
Traditional Carolina- and Texas-inspired smoking techniques and authentic scratch-made recipes recreate the taste of genuine US Southern barbecue.
I grew up eating Carolina bbq and this food made me tear up because it reminded me of home. Really tasty and authentic.
