I have't been to BurnCo in several years but I agree at one time they were hands down the best in the state, the BBQ game has definitely stepped up in the last few years so they have some challengers, and the only BBQ joint, at the time, that you had to stand in line to get in. And at their original location in the strip mall if you got there after noon they were probably already sold out.
I used to work a lot with a company that only did fire, water and other insurance rebuilds. Whether the walls can stay depends. If it's an all steel structure an engineer would have to determine if the wall steel got hot enough to weaken it. If it's concrete block then the walls can almost certainly stay.
