Thanksgiving Without the Kitchen Chaos? Burnt Ends BBQ Has You Covered.
Thanksgiving is supposed to be about good food, good company, and being thankful. Not waking up at 5 a.m. to wrestle a turkey into the oven.
This year, give yourself something extra to be thankful for: less cooking and more time around the table.
Burnt Ends Barbecue in Auburn, Maine, is bringing the smoke to Thanksgiving with holiday pre-orders featuring the slow-smoked flavor and hearty comfort food we're known for.
Whether you're feeding the whole family, hosting Friendsgiving, or just looking to take a few dishes off your cooking list, we've got a delicious way to make the holiday easier.
Let Us Handle the Turkey
Anyone can throw a turkey in the oven. But a turkey that's been carefully smoked low and slow? That's a different kind of Thanksgiving centerpiece.
At Burnt Ends, we know our way around a smoker. Our approach is simple: take quality ingredients, give them the time and attention they deserve, and serve food worth gathering around.
Forget spending half the day checking the oven, wondering if the bird is done, or desperately trying to rescue dry turkey with another gallon of gravy.
Leave the smoking to us. You take the credit for having excellent taste.
Don't Forget the Sides
Let's be serious. Thanksgiving might technically be about the turkey, but everyone knows the sides deserve their own holiday.
Our Thanksgiving pre-orders are all about bringing that comforting, satisfying holiday meal to your table without turning your kitchen into a disaster zone.
From traditional holiday favorites to the kind of hearty comfort food you'd expect from an Auburn smokehouse, Burnt Ends makes it easy to build a feast your guests will remember.
Want to handle your own turkey but leave some of the sides to us? Check out our Thanksgiving ordering menu to see the available options.
Because making everything from scratch sounds wonderful until you've got six pots boiling, three timers going off, and someone asking when dinner will be ready.
More Time Together. Less Time Cooking.
The best part of Thanksgiving isn't standing over a stove. It's catching up with family, sharing a few laughs, watching football, and sneaking another helping when nobody's looking.
Ordering your Thanksgiving food from Burnt Ends means spending less time preparing the meal and more time enjoying the people you prepared it for.
And if someone asks whether you made everything yourself?
We'll leave that conversation between you and your conscience.

You handle the family. We'll handle the flavor.
