About

Le Boucan focuses on traditional smokehouse techniques to deliver bold flavors through slow-cooked meats and hickory-smoked delicacies. The menu features tender pulled pork, beef brisket, and succulent ribs prepared with house-made rubs and signature sauces. Guests experience a focused culinary approach where the smoke provides the primary seasoning for every main plate. Beyond standard barbecue offerings, the kitchen constructs stacked burgers utilizing high-quality beef patties and artisan buns to ensure a robust profile. Accompaniments such as crispy fried pickles and classic slaw provide a textured contrast to the rich, savory proteins. The atmosphere emphasizes a straightforward dedication to the craft of authentic smoking, prioritizing the integrity of the cooking process over unnecessary stylistic embellishments to maintain a focused standard of quality throughout the menu.

Plusieurs plats intéressants, notamment leur sandwich au poulet à la sauce bbq blanche. Endroit très bruyant, musique à tue-tête. Réservation impérative.

Toujours heureuse de recommander les restaurants qui m'ont plu & de m'abstenir de commenter ceux qui m'ont déplu mais quand tu réserve deux semaines à l'avance & que tu te retrouve sur la terrasse par averse & qu'il te pleut dans le dos...

Les ribs de ma soeur & de mon père n'étaient même pas défaisables avec couteau & fourchette.

...pour un anniversaire c'est très décevant.

Le reste de la carte est bien. Sauce BBQ très bonne. Service courtois. Cocktails très bien fait, carte étendue.

Je n'y retournerai pas. Trop de restos magnifiques à Mtl pour y retourner.

Great comfort food. The small backyard terrasse is very intimate & inviting with a nice mix of shade & sunlight. The staff is friendly & the food is delicious. The menu needs to be updated as some items have been discontinued, but we were kindly informed of this & offered alternatives, which I thought was nice of our waitress. The chicken sandwich with white BBQ sauce was tasty & the chicken wings & BBQ mustard sauce were finger-licking good (literally!) The alcohol is a bit on the pricy side for the size, but I will certainly be going back for some ribs! They score extra points with me for the neat, original website.

C'Est un resto minuscule..il faut réserver pour y manger..La nourriture est bonne mais quoi que vous manger la sauce BBQ est la même ,très piquante . Les portions sont énorme. Les drinks sont très dispendieux mais quand même bon. Le service très ordinaire , une serveuse qui fait le strict minimum.

The food was great !

Had Cajun Shrimps for appetizer, very good, but not enough for 2 lol

For main course had the Pulled Pork guedille & 'le boucan's chicken bbq' both were suculant :)

Side dishes were, Fries, potatoe salad, green salad & cheezy corn, mmmmm

Will be back there !

Le Boucan BBQ Chicken Breast was amazing! Possibly the best piece of chicken you'll have anywhere in town, & definitely one of the best dishes we've had in 2012!

Slow-smoked perfection defines every bite at Montreal’s favorite destination for authentic Southern-style barbecue.
