Default Opening soon...
I stopped at Burke's BBQ December 24th sometime just after Noon. I spoke with Mr. Burke as he was tossing more wood into the firebox of the smoker (he is continuing to season the smoker).

I introduced myself and we talked a short while about BBQ in general, his BBQ pit, and the restaurant. He was friendly, but very busy as he is working to get the restaurant opened.

Mr. Burke said he hoped to open in 15 days or so, putting the opening date somewhere around the beginning of the second week of January.

I peeked in the windows and looked around the canopy area where the picnic tables are. I liked the set up and the atmosphere (picnic tables inside and outside). This looks like a serious BBQ joint to me.

So it seems the wait for Burke's BBQ to open is about to be over!
