Can't get enough of jack flat bbq. This time, I tried another hidden menu item. Smash burger poutine. It's literally what it says. Take a smash burger without the bread & put it on a poutine. It was good! I don't like mayo (or that type of sauce) in a poutine though so because of that I didn't like it as much as the Mac tex poutine but it was still good. As always, I always overeat when I come here because I want to try everything (& I never succeed to try everything cause there's just so much to try). Buffalo chicken wings are very good & the pop corn Nashville chicken pair so good with them. & the smash burger double cheese bacon. I would says it's one, if not the best burger I ever eat. It seems small, but it's filling. I'm a burger person, I do judge a place by there burger. Rare I go somewhere that serve burger & don't take it (specially on my first go). & jack flat is just in another category. Now don't get me wrong, it's not gourmet style burger (& I hate gourmet burger anyway, I don't want a fancy burger that cost 50$ because the chef drizzle gold on it, I want a burger that taste wonderful). This is a true backyard bbq burger that is perfectly season, perfectly cooked, perrectly smokes, perfect all the way. Just enough fat so it's tasty like it should. I ate in the past the poutine Mac tex. This is my normal go to. It's a Mac tex Mac & cheese on top of a poutine with brisket. It's just amazing. I took also the cheddar saucage as a starter plate. It's per serving so the price is for 1 saucage. It was very good. Oh & did I talked about the two homemade bbq sauce that's available directly at the table next to the ketchup & red-hot? These things are marvelous. Paired with any meat, you can't go wrong. I had people with me that never put any sauce just going back for more. If these sauce were available in grocery store, it would always be sold out. The place is crowded, specially on Friday & Saturday but I don't think there's a night that this place is not jammed packed. I've tried various day & it'd always very busy, & it's not for nothing, you want to come back. Friday & Saturday, you can make reservation for less than 4 if you call but places do go fast. You can try walk in but be prepare for a wait. I already waited 2h30 for a table on a Saturday night. I was prepare to wait, I wanted to eat here, I didn't made a reservation so I knew that walking at 7pm was a mistake. But it was worth the wait. The service is phenomenal. They will guide you, help you, be very friendly, it's just good to be there. Oh, you can also request a tour of the smoker, it's free & very nice to see, smell & learned how the amazing food is done. There is special food each night which can be smoke meat, tomahawk, ribs, etc. & the ambiance is just a fresh different VS all other place. It's not a sports bar, it's not a pub, it's like a retro country club with a small arcade on top. The music is all country / cowboy style, often music I never heard before but just very good. There's tv if you want to look at sport event. They will put stuff like NHL games, NFL, etc. But mainly it played the video clip of the playing soundtrack. Wait, there's more. More? Yes! Nearly each night, there's an event. Karaoke? Country dance? Dance classes? Name it! Highly suggest going on their Facebook page & Instagram cause this is where they announce every event & also, every hidden item. Hidden item? Yes, there's many offering that aren't on the menu like the popcorn Nashville chicken, the wings, smash burger poutine (looks like my tonight order!) & more. You're craving meat? Smoked meat? Bbq meat? Burger? Chicken? Poutine? Anything related to that? Like some company would say just do it, it's jack flat or nothing!
Entering Jack Flat's Barbecue for the first time was like stepping into a world of aromas & flavors. The air was thick with the scent of slow-cooked meats & wood smoke, instantly igniting my senses. Opting for the sampler platter, I embarked on a culinary journey that left me speechless. Each bite of tender ribs, succulent brisket, & heavenly pulled pork was a revelation, filling me with a sense of wonder & delight. From the warm hospitality to the rustic ambiance, every aspect of the experience was enchanting, making it a dining experience I would never forget. Would definitely recommend everyone to experience.
Simple the best place to go for smoked meat of all sorts. The ribs are off the hook. The staff is amazing. The owner Cedric does everything to make you evening memorable. Let's not forget there drinks are amazin & arround 10pm the place turns into a western dancing Saloon.

Bon concept ,différents,ça fait du bien le changement au Québec !!! RIB saignant sur l'os,pas vue souvent ? Cuissons Bouffe pas très chaude 🤔bonne ambiance & agréable ,service (en général... l'expérience s'acquiert avec le temp ,besoin quelques top gun pour driver la relève & les twists du métier ,j'ai du allée chercher mes breuvages moi même pour gang car fesait un bout qu'il était là ,les serveuses était en pleine discussion émotionnel & pleurait au bar ... come on ... service clientèle svp ,j'espère vous preniez bien la critique car quel vous sera constructive,je n'envoie jamais de commentaire je vais plutôt brûler 1400 dollars ailleurs ..
Everything was perfect. Except the brisket was dry.
But the rest was 5/5
-Service, Mac & cheese, ribs, pork belly, coleslaw, onions & pickles, fries, drinks.
Le seul manque à gagner serait d'avoir une meilleure variété de sauce (bbq sucré, bbq fumé, sauce piquante agrumes, etc). La nourriture était 5/5 une bonne balance de sel entre les viandes (brisket très salé, mais ribs pas beaucoup, c'était parfait). Petite inconsistance au niveau du bar entre deux même drink. L'équipe très compétente, rapide & à l'écoute. Augmenter un peu la température à l'intérieur ou même laisser un peu l'espace dégager l'odeur de bbq (on était surpris à quel point le reste ne sentait pas les viandes).
As a native Texan in Montreal, my heart was so happy with the awesome experience we had at Jack Flat! Top notch BBQ + hospitality made us feel though we were right back home in Dallas! We had the brisket & pork ribs with a couple of sides. The meats were so juicy & savory no sauce was needed - as we say back home'meat candy'! Cédrick & Darren made our 1st visit memorable! We truly enjoyed learning more about what makes their Texas-inspired BBQ so delicious & unique. We'll 100% be back again soon!
