About Twelve Boar American BBQ - Chermside west

Twelve Boar delivers stripped-back American BBQ built on hefty portions, slow-smoked meats, and honest prices. Skip the white tablecloths—this Chermside West outpost focuses squarely on low-and-slow comfort. Diners line up for the brisket roll, packing tender beef dripping in savory gravy into a soft bun. Those chasing pure heft make quick work of the towering TB Deluxe burger or tender beef ribs pulled straight from the smoker. Table orders usually flesh out with peri-peri seasoned chips, hot buffalo wings, and fried jalapeño bites.

  • Slow-Smoked Meats & Burgers: Massive portions of slow-smoked beef ribs, pulled meat, and gravy-soaked brisket rolls served in soft buns.
  • Standout Diner Sides: Crisp peri-peri chips, buffalo wings, curly fries, and spicy jalapeño bites balance the heavy platters.
  • Unpretentious Value: A no-frills, counter-style dining room dishing out generous family-sized BBQ plates without the smokehouse markup.
