I've been trying all the BBQ spots I can find around Montreal, Laval, & the South Shore, & this weekend we decided to check out Old Haunt's BBQ.
It's primarily a takeout spot, though it looks like there's outdoor seating in the summer based on the picnic tables.
We wanted a good variety, so we ordered the Brisket Plate & the Ribs Plate, along with beans, mac & cheese, macaroni salad, & chili as sides. We also added a side order of pork belly burnt ends.
Out of all the BBQ places I've tried so far, this was the only one where I genuinely enjoyed everything we ordered. I was also impressed with the portion sizes, it definitely felt like good value for the money.
That said, the only downside was the lack of noticeable smoke flavour in the food, That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Still, I'd absolutely go back in the summer & give it another try.
The owner was kind enough to offer me a ride back to the bus stop after finding out I walked to their restaurant. That was super thoughtful & really set the tone for the whole experience. That same warmth comes through in the food. I had the burnt ends plate & half a rack of ribs. Portions were generous & affordable, the seasoning was addictive, & the sides were excellent - the carrots were tender without being mushy, & the mashed potatoes were deliciously rich. The meats were super tender & somehow tasted even better the next day when I reheated them.
They are the best nachos I have ever tried, & the ribs are incredible.
