Killer BBQ - Our meats are smoked to perfection using a mix of locally sourced woods in our beloved smoker, Stella. Each piece is coated with a unique rub that brings out the best flavors in every bite. We're constantly striving to improve our process, which means you'll always get the best barbecue possible.

Creative Non-BBQ -At Durk's, we understand that not everyone is in the mood for BBQ. That's why we offer an ever-changing menu designed to please a variety of palates. Our chefs are always happy to accommodate dietary preferences, and we have plenty of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options available.
