Briskit Gourmet Slow Cooked Sandwiches

I always make time for this place when I am in this part of town

A mom and pop restaurant hidden in the intestinal commercial side streets of Brampton. The dinner is not fancy and washrooms are clean.
My peameal sandwich, I had to order an egg to throw on it, and the meal deal added homefries and coffee. The food was good, nothing exceptional, but I’m not sure the price/​value is great.
They need to add free WiFi, and offer table side ordering. Currently you order at the counter, sit, then pay… Cant believe the rest of the menu could change my star rating here.

I’m not sure how a place called Briskit could be out of brisket, but that they were when we came in for lunch much to our disappointment. I had the pulled pork (actually a «Double Trouble» with the brisket replaced by the pulled pork). There wasn’t much sauce /​flavour to it so after eating a few bites I had to go back and ask for more barbeque sauce (made in house!). I’m also convinced I never go the swiss cheese … based on other people’s picture of it being on top and being able to only see cheddar in my own picture… yeah.
Fries are good and yes, they are quite generous with the portions but I didn’t think they were special.
Service is friendly, but the place is very busy during lunch so it was slow.
The wifi password is love5.

Needed a quick place to eat close to the airport. Got the Brisket Melt with fries and root beer. Excellently prepared in a very quick manner. Brisket was amazing with perfect proportions of meat, cheese and bun. Fries were perfect and they give you a heaping pile of them so you won’t go hungry. All of that for a reasonable price of $ 11 something plus tip. Definitely going back next time I fly into Toronto.

I don’t even know how to begin with this review.
The food first of all, was amazing. It was my first visit and I got the Double «B» Burger so I could sample both their burger and their namesake brisket. Amazing. Juicy, tender burger, perfectly cooked. The brisket added some saltiness and a great depth of flavor. And tied together with some good condiments, and held between a soft bun that soaked up some of the juices (the rest of which was on my plate, which is exactly what should happen with a good burger). I’ve had some damn good burgers in my lifetime but this is up there. It’s unique, it’s delicious, and I’m salivating now even thinking about it. The whole mess is also quite sizable. I’m a carnivore and a big guy and this burger filled me up quite solidly.
The place itself has a warm atmosphere and you’ll feel at home as soon as you’re there. This is thanks in large part to the owner, who is really friendly. Most importantly, you can tell he has a real passion for food. This also comes through in the fact that virtually everything they serve, they make in house. They’ve even got their own hot sauce (delicious, of course).
Needless to say, I’ll be back. Often.

Ok but not great
I brought a coworker with me from Germany while working the Panam games and we both were disappointed
It was good but the portions were too small
I love the heart and soul that goes into the dish but what happened to needing two hands to be able to eat it?

Best briskit place in Brampton. A hidden gem, great owners, very friendly, they make their food with love.

Honestly the best brisket that I have ever had. There hours aren’t the greatest but it is worth making the trip.

Stumbling across some reviews for Brampton, Briskit happened to capture my attention. Gourmet Slow Cooked Sandwiches… mmmm. When I think slow cooked, I think smoked meat. Reading the reviews, my gut was right. slow cooked and smoked meat piled upon different methods of food delivery.
I convinced my wife to accompany me on a Sunday morning to the Orenda location. Briskit has two locations, but the Wilkinson location is only open M-​F and the Orenda one is open all week. It didn’t take too much convincing, because they had home made onion rings (her favorite) that they made with a gluten free batter (almost everything I think on the menu is gluten free!!).
Off the beaten path of Queen St or Steeles in Brampton, you will find it on the corner of Rutherford Rd and Orenda by a gas station. Family owned and operated, we were greeted by the owners and they asked if it was our first time visiting Briskit. We told them yes and they guided us through their whole menu and answered any questions that they had. This location was also featuring breakfast menu that the other location did not have. My wife and I opted for the Breakfast skillet which consisted of potatoes, Slow cooked beef brisket and pulled pork, eggs, cheese, toast, and bbq sauce, my wife had the BLT on a Kaiser with homemade onion rings. We sat down and the owner brought out a little sample of the brisket and pulled pork in a little ramikin to sample. the smoke flavoring and slow cooking was evident in the meat. very tasty! Our meals came up pretty quick and we had a chat with the owner.
The Wilkinson location is well known for its Brisket sandwiches, but it is also well known in the area for its burgers. The burger menu has about 8 – 9 different burgers, but they also feature a burger of the month. This month the burger had Mac and cheese with BBQ sauce on a garlic kaiser. He told me all the burgers are fresh ground chuck with a little beef brisket mixed in, definitely going to order on my next visit. Prices are very reasonable and the hospitality and service was good! A great experience with some very tasty food. I think this is going to be my guilty vice for the while!

Ordered: Brisket Melt with fries.
The whole meal was above the standard I usually see across Brampton.
Next time I will ask for coleslaw on a sandwich as it is available, but not listed on the menu board.

Good sandwiches, slow cooked to perfection. Fries are hand cut. I just don’t like how they removed the check in offer. I shall return in the near future.

I was looking for somewhere new to eat during my lunch while I was in Brampton. I found this place on Unilocal and came here as it was only a short distance away.
It’s a such a cute little family owned place with incredibly friendly service. It was super cheap and looks newly renovated.
There was a wide variety of unique options for lunch — both sandwiches and meals. I was stuffed when I left!
I would come back here for sure.

Was in the area so used Unilocal to find this place — good call. Called before I went in so the sandwich was ready in a few minute of me arriving. Had the Cuban pulled pork. Great taste and huge portions — came with fries, great flavour
very friendly staff
Highly recommend and will be back!

Can’t believe I’m the only one who didn’t give this place a 5 star rating
In terms of BBQ in the area… sure? It’s better than other options around, but this place is not anywhere near the quality of BBQ you can get elsewhere in the city. The place itself is a bit of an oddity as it’s located in an industrial area but they make it work. Known for busting out BBQ sandwiches like nobody’s business, I figure I make it out to see for myself all the commotion.
Met a buddy for lunch and we split a Brisket Sandwich and the BBQ Platter Special that day. The Brisket Sandwich was good but not great. The bread was crusty and held the brisket itself very well, but the brisket meat was dry and overly sauced. The meat was still tasty though. The BBQ Platter came with chicken strips, BBQ Short Ribs, fries, cornbread, and slaw. The chicken strips were battered using what I believe to be cornmeal and deep fried. I thought they were a bit odd but seemed to work nonetheless. The interesting part was the BBQ Short ribs which I thought were a twist off old BBQ but it worked a bit. Super tendy, but not as fatty or rich in taste as you would like it to be. It was drowned in sauce too, which many people like, though I enjoy a bit of dry bark on my BBQ.
The service was super friendly and the people there seemed genuine in their delivery. The food wasn’t bad and prices seem fair but there’s much better to be had the closer you reach the city. For what it is, it’s definitely worth a visit as you’ll be getting some good food.

Excellent little hidden gem. I go for lunch whenever I’m in town for work. The owners are friendly and helpful, and it’s obviously popular for lunch. I prefer to go in a little before or after the lunch rush when the place has calmed down. Gotta get the frings… And the pulled pork sandwiches are great!

This is a small sandwich shop done right. The Mom and Pop who run the place clearly have a passion for the job and are always extremely friendly and outgoing. The fries, burgers, rings, and their namesake brisket sandwich are all completely homemade, freshly prepared to order. And there’s a large variety of options to choose from including all day breakfast and breakfast sandwiches. A great choice for Brampton

I had a great sandwich here yesterday. The nice lady behind the counter offered samples to me when she discovered I was on my maiden visit. I selected the Philly melt brisket for my meal. It was lovely. The fries were good as well. The dining area is efficiently sized. Most of the tables were being used during the lunch hour. There was a sports channel on TV in the corner so we could keep up with our current events.
No doubt I will return to Briskit. There are lots of menu items to try. There are even some specials. I’m only in Brampton a few times each year, but this place hopped to the top of my lunch place list.

So — every now and then, I wander to the big scary ‘burbs to pick up office equipment. Most of these treks suck. After a long ass drive to the middle of nowhere, shelling out big dough to a ‘load-​your-​heavy-​ass-​furniture-​your-​own-​damned-​self’ warehouse, I always try to ‘reward’ myself with a ‘nice’ meal — but not *too* nice, since I just spent hundreds or thousands on something for *work*. Usually, this just means fried chicken or a McDonald’s combo — but since I negotiated a 7% discount, I okay with ‘splurging’ on a $ 30 meal for my partner-​in-​crime and I.
We Unilocaled and found a gluten-​free BBQ restaurant in the same industrial park. I was thinking that this place was going to suck — a GLUTEN-​FREE BBQ place in an industrial park serving a captive audience? But I was too tired and hungry to argue…
But boy, was I wrong. Sure, the place is small and seats 10 people at most and it’s seems to specialize more in take-​out/​catering. But the owner/​chef instantly greeted us, confirmed that it was our first time there and offered me samples of the pulled pork and the eponymous brisket before I decided. He recommended some awesome vegetarian options for the lady and we were soon seated and waiting for our order.
The owner/​chef clearly has a passion for his craft and dude was a hell of a nice guy as well. Filling us in on his catering options and his monthly specials (there was an Elvis sandwich with peanut butter and banana).
While the pulled pork sample was good, I had to order the brisket sandwich. Not only because of the namesake, but because well-​prepared brisket is glorious. The brisket is juicy and tender and had a nice kick from the housemade BBQ sauce on a kaiser roll. It was a large sandwich for only $ 7. I had a bite of the lady’s veggie wrap and it had nice hit of curry in it. The onion rings are housemade as well and the batter was very crunchy and tasty. I’ve been served many self-​proclaimed ‘best’ brisket and onion rings before, and some of the finest examples I had was in a takeout joint in a Brampton industrial park. Go figure.
We left stuffed for ~$ 25 total — with a belly full of delicious brisket and onion rings, I was almost happy to unload and install my expensive assed office furniture and work afterwards… ALMOST. But at least I can look forward to coming back here again the next time I’m out in Brampton.

I would have lunch here everyday if it could be within the limits of my daily caloric intake levels. It’s tucked away in a small industrial complex, and it’s probably Brampton’s best kept secret.
They have monthly specials which have a seasonal theme or are just outrageous (beef brisket parfait with mashed potatoes, anyone?). I stick with the burgers and BBQ sandwiches which come with a large helping of great fries with a combo.
The owner/​operators are super friendly — the hospitality reminds me of my childhood when I went to other people’s houses for dinner as a guest!
Go hungry and you won’t be disappointed.

I loooooovveeee Briskit! LOVE IT!
I don’t get the opportunity often, but when I can I will always go for fish and chips friday. As someone who cannot eat gluten, fish and chips becomes a rarity, so it’s always nice to find somewhere that does it — and does it right!
The portions are enormous! My fish was longer than the plate! The fries are always very crispy and are cooked in dedicated gfree oil.
The owners are fantastic and also sell gfree buns/​biscuits and delicious gfree BBQ sauce.
Give it a shot — and try the onion rings too. You won’t regret it (well, your waistband might, but your tastebuds will be happy!)
