"Best BBQ we had in a long time. We went to this eatery because we saw it on dives, diners and drive-ins. Bluebird did not disappoint. Smoke chicken the best we ever had. Side were fab. Make sure you don’t miss the margaritas. Think twice about having two. They are fabulous but strong."

There is something pleasingly barbaric about smoked meat. Perhaps it's that prehistoric genetic activation that comes with tearing into a rib that's been basted and crisped over flames or maybe it's simply looking around a restaurant to realize that you're not the only one foregoing utensils and licking your fingers. Bluebird Barbecue in Burlington satisfies both primal urges and disdain for decorum, while serving up delicious smoked meats in a modern and civilized atmosphere. We dropped in on a Friday night (sans reservations) and were greeted, welcomed, seated (within 20 minutes of our arrival), and attended to by friendly and accommodating staff that included hosts, bartenders, waitstaff,...
I will make a point to eat here again when I'm in the area, and you should too! Not to be missed!! Delicious smoked meats perfectly prepared, and a variety of sauces to choose from. If you're a Southerner you'll appreciate the collards and other sides that are prepared with a down home flavor. The service was friendly and fast, we chose to eat at the bar because there was a 45 minute wait. This is a popular place so make your reservations well ahead.
Bluebird has the best wings in town hands down (and possibly the best smoked wings I've ever had). We are so impressed by how professional they are with regards to safety and etiquette during the pandemic. It is so easy to order and they bring it straight to your car. The gentleman on the phone and who brought out the food was so kind and helpful. Not only is the customer service top notch but the food is incredible!
Good but not great brisket was tender and dry needed way too much sauce to make it taste good. The Ribs were much better than the brisket. Turkey was smoked but dry and needed sauce to make it palitable. Mac and cheese was good, beans very good, collard greens Needed the mustard and Apple cider vinegar to satisfy my tastes. Good value for the price.
