Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Bofinger BBQ Smokehouse as delivering authentic American style barbecue with tender ribs, brisket and pulled pork, solid sauces, and hearty sides at good value, while the service is repeatedly praised as friendly and the decor fitting the cuisine. Some diners report occasional misses such as ribs that were a bit tough, a dry burger or overly salted fries, but these are outweighed by praise for freshness, flavor and portion size. One reviewer even frames the experience as elevating local barbecue, and many say they would return to try more dishes, especially the ribs, brisket and wings.

I have been going to Bofinger since it opened in 2007 & I love everything on the menu. My favourite meal are the smoked pork ribs with honey barbecue sauce 😋. I have had southern barbecue in many different cities & these are by far the best I have ever had. The service is also impeccable, Amir is one of the friendliest people I have met & takes great pride in his work! 10/10

A Traumatic Encounter with Culinary Excellence at Bofinger BBQ

Let me preface this by saying, if you value mediocrity, if you cherish the bland, & if your palate recoils at the mere suggestion of genuine flavor, then for the love of all that is unspectacular, DO NOT go to Bofinger BBQ in Montreal.

Consider yourselves warned.My recent visit was nothing short of an assault on my carefully cultivated apathy towards barbecue. I went in expecting the usual, the forgettable, the'it'll do.' What I received was a gastronomic intervention I didn't ask for & am now, infuriatingly, grateful for.

First, the barbecue ribs. Oh, the utter gall of these ribs! They were so ludicrously tender, so shamelessly falling off the bone, that one wonders if they've bribed the laws of physics. Each bite was a decadent, smoky whisper of perfection, drenched in a sauce that had no business being so profoundly balanced - sweet, tangy, with just enough of a kick to remind you that your taste buds are, in fact, alive & currently being exploited for pleasure. It was an insult to every dry, chewy rib I've ever reluctantly consumed.

& the French fries? Preposterous! Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, & seasoned with such devilish precision that they rendered ketchup entirely redundant. Who needs a condiment when the fry itself is a masterpiece? It's almost offensive in its simplicity & flawless execution.

Then there was the mac & cheese. This wasn't just mac & cheese; it was a creamy, cheesy, carb-laden conspiracy against willpower. Rich, comforting, & dangerously addictive, it clung to every noodle with an unapologetic intensity. It's the kind of side dish that actively tries to sabotage your main course by being equally, if not more, compelling. A true villain, disguised as comfort food.

& finally, the chicken. Juicy, flavorful, with skin that boasted an almost criminal char. It wasn't merely cooked; it was transformed. Each piece was a testament to proper seasoning & masterful grilling, forcing me to confront the harsh reality that I may never look at a rotisserie chicken the same way again.

In conclusion, Bofinger BBQ is a menace. It dares to serve food that is genuinely, unequivocally delicious, thereby raising the bar to an uncomfortably high level. If you enjoy your culinary experiences to be just'fine' or'decent,' then absolutely, unequivocally, avoid Bofinger. You've been warned: your expectations for good barbecue will be irrevocably ruined.
