The Best BBQ Chicken in Toronto
The best BBQ chicken in Toronto is the type of homemade meal that dinnertime dreams are made of. Seemingly simple, it's a dish that's easy to get wrong. When is it right? When it boasts crisp, savoury skin, tender, succulent meat, and the type of irresistible allure that compels you to eschew decorum, and pick up each morsel with your bare hands.
Here is the best BBQ chicken in Toronto.
Generations of the Pinto family have perfected the recipe now used to make each and every chicken at this casual Rogers Road spot. Whether you need a quarter chicken for one, or a couple of whole birds for the family, the team's flame-grilled and rotisserie chicken never disappoints.
Despite the Ukrainian chef in the kitchen, this take-out spot at Davenport Road and Laughton Avenue is as Portuguese as can be. Using recipes she learned living in Porto, Portugal, Vira Bandura cooks chicken the traditional way, until it's crisp, juicy, and as addictive as poultry dares to be.
With 30 plus years of practice, it's not hard to believe that this mini-chain (with three Toronto locations) has perfected its recipe for top-notch BBQ chicken. Marinated and grilled, each crowd-pleasing portion is served with rice, potatoes, and a hefty side of satisfaction.
