I had take out twice at this location because it always smells so good driving pass. The food is average. I think all the Burnet BBQs are pretty overated. The price is great for the amount of food you get, but the taste does nothing for my tatse buds. Decent bbq chicken, garlic shrimp and rice, but nothing much different than any other place I have been serving this type of food.
I was expecting take out in a styrofoam box, but instead, I received a 13×9 aluminum pan filled with food. What did I get myself into!?
Combo Chicken and Pork Ribs with Fries and Rice ($14): Is this the Portuguese response to Latin American cuisine portions? The serving is ridiculous — I'm a pretty tall guy with a huge appetite but I had leftovers for five days!
This *full* combo comes with 1/2 of a whole barbequed chicken, four pretty long ribs and the equivalent of two cups of rice and fries; note that you could also opt for vegetables and beans or whatever combination of sides you would like. Taste wise, the chicken was seasoned well and had a light saltiness to the crispy skin. It was cooked well, with the meat coming right off the bone. The chicken was delicious and was probably my favorite meat of the combo. On the other hand, the ribs were a disappointment. Yes, they were grilled but that was really it. I tasted char and smokey meat; there was no seasoning whatsoever. Also, the ribs were not as tender as the chicken was. Some people like their meat like that, but I am — unfortunately — not one of those people.
The rice was no big deal but was tasty; it was yellow and had a slight buttery flavor to it. Fries are fries; however, for some odd reason, the soggier the fries, the more I liked them. I don't know…that's just me, though.
You could get the same thing with only two ribs for $8.50, which is still an awesome deal. Burnet #2 also sells grilled and boiled fish, clams, sausage, steak, various pork dishes, sandwiches, salads, and a few desserts. For a small place on the side of the road, they're churning out huge portions, at least when it comes to take out barbeque.
