The front desk staff at the hotel I was at recommended this place as good local eating. Located in a shopping plaza near a planet fitness. Very mom & pop restaurant. The staff was very nice and patient with me being undecided and I didn’t feel rushed. I got a simple pork rib dinner with mac &
Greens as my side. It was bad but I wasn’t blown away. Alot of the customers was getting the hash and rice dish which might be a signature and I wish I had also tried that but I didn’t want to hold the line up with too many questions. But I will say I would come back to try other things if I’m in town again.

We were in town for a quick trip. Family was attending a gathering at the S bar next door. My husband and I love to try local bbq especially when visiting the southern regions of the US. As we were greeted by staff, it was not the warm southern greeting you would expect. Staff was pleasant but I could tell they weren’t the friendless. Unfortunately we were very disappointed in the meal. Ribs were definitely frozen a few times along with being boiled. Now with this being a local spot I would have expected a nice smoked rib. Or at least the meat to be fresh. The only thing I can say was the Carolina mild sauce was good. I would not recommend this bbq to anyone that is an experienced bbq lover. We have better bbq up North. To be 100% honest.

Don’t let the strip-mall location fool you — Big T’s BBQ is the real deal.
We were in town for a Fort Jackson graduation and wanted real local food. The moment we walked in, that mustard-forward Carolina barbecue aroma hit us, and we knew we were in the right place.
I asked what they recommended, and they pointed me toward the hash and rice dinner. This was my first real Carolina barbecue, so I didn’t know what to expect — but it was excellent. The hash was rich and comforting, the barbecue was tender and full of flavor, the mustard greens and cabbage tasted like genuine Southern home cooking, and the cornbread was amazing.
Portions were generous, too — you definitely won’t leave hungry.
And the sweet tea deserves its own line.
This wasn’t weak or watered down — it was strong brewed tea, sweet enough to glaze a donut.
Exactly how sweet tea ought to be.
If you’re in Columbia or near Fort Jackson for a graduation and want honest, no-nonsense Southern food that locals actually eat, Big T’s is absolutely worth the stop.

I ate the rib plate with hash and rice and two sides. My sides were corn and collard greens. The food was delicious. They serve a mustard sauce that is not too mustardy. I highly recommend eating here.

When I first started goin there I had no idea what hash was (I’m from Louisiana) I still dnt eat it but everything else on the menus is great. Each time I go i try something diff. I live for the Friday’s when they do the oxtails!! This is def my go to spot when I’m out and about. Sorry I didn’t take a pic but I had the cheeseburger and fries today!! Not to mention I grabbed some cracklings. Makes me think I’m back home.⚜️⚜️

The atmosphere was off. The lady at the register was kind but the girl who fixed my plate was a little unprofessional. Her attitude was nasty. I came to this location today June 21st around 7:50 Pm and spent 21.45 for the food. The macaroni was dry and old. It’s a hit and miss eating at Big T’S .

Been coming to Big T’s since someone at work took me to the Gadsden location back in 1998. Got the hash and rice plate, with mac and cheese and collard greens. Great as usual. Was going to take some of it home but finished it off at the restaurant.

I recently visited Big T’s Bar-B-Que in Columbia, SC, and ordered the smothered chicken with rice, mac and cheese, collards, cornbread, and a drink. The meal was hearty and flavorful, with the smothered chicken being tender and well-seasoned, paired perfectly with the rice. The mac and cheese was creamy, and the collards had just the right amount of seasoning. The cornbread was warm and soft, rounding out a delicious Southern comfort meal. With generous portions and great taste, Big T’s offers a satisfying and authentic dining experience.
