Grab a Bite at Blue Haze BBQ (Beausejour)

You can never go wrong with the gift of food. If your dad can’t get enough of BBQ foods, then the award-winning, authentic southern BBQ restaurant Blue Haze Barbecue is just the place to go!

At Blue Haze, they start with top-quality meats hand-rubbed with their special blend of seasonings. Then the meat is slow-smoked over select hardwoods for up to sixteen hours in a pit barbeque until juicy and nearly fall-apart tender. Finally, they pair the meat with the perfect complement – their signature BBQ sauces.

Delight your tastebuds to tender, smoked chicken, mouthwatering pulled pork, sinfully delicious brisket, and succulent prime ribs. You can’t go wrong by ordering their deli sandwiches like the New Yorker that consists of house-made Pastrami, fresh marble rye, and grainy mustard; or their Croque Monsieur that comes with rosemary-scented ham, Swiss cheese, Dijonaisse on grilled marble rye and topped with Bechamel sauce and extra cheese.
