Urban Cowboy Eats

Find finger-licking good barbecue joints in Ottawa

After their food truck made them enough money to open a brick-and-mortar joint, the folks at Urban Cowboy set up shop south of the airport. They trace their routes back to when the Ottawa Roughriders were one of two Canadian football teams. The Belcher Burger – which consists of smoked brisket with pickle and onion on a potato bun – has been a fan favourite for decades. The new restaurant has décor that expresses their Texan roots while maintaining a friendly, open vibe.
