The Chainsmoker Urban Halal Barbecue brand is now Canada's fastest growing chain of HMA Certified, (100% Halal ) barbecue restaurants serving "low & slow" cooked smoked triple "A" brisket, beef back ribs, chicken, 100% lean ground-chuck beef burgers, wings, fries and an assortment of other items found in an authentic South Carolina barbecue restaurant.  

Created by restaurant, franchise & interior design industry gurus "Michael Lublin & Christopher David", the Chainsmoker is about to sky-rocket to a position of prominence as the best "fast-premium" food concept in north America.  This dynamic dual with over 40 years combined in food service, their genius marketing strategies, allowed the Chainsmoker Eglinton Avenue store to yield a 400% volume increase and a 110% same store sales increase during the devastating first wave of Covid-19.   Not bad for a team that still consider themselves "novice" in a vastly growing industry.  

A keen understanding that the restaurant industry is indeed, a "penny business", operating both food cost & labour cost well below industry standard and a great appreciation for the cost of real estate, places the Chainsmoker business model well above any other in the industry.   "Franchisees must work only for themselves and reap positive cash flow at all times and not work for the landlord or the bank", says Lublin in every interview.   Its an absolute imperative that food cost, labour cost & royalties are kept at a minimum creating a better business model setting each franchisee up for success.       

The Chainsmoker is an entry-level franchise business where the growth potential for multi-unit ownership by franchisees is greater than most seasoned brands.
