The peach cobbler was absolutely fantastic and will become a staple on my future orders. I was greeted right away by friendly faces and smiles when walking in and after placing my order the owner offered me a sample of their sausage, after trying it I immediately regretted not getting a side order of it as it was so delicious and juicy and the flavor blew me away. I was already recommending the place to friends before I left the parking lot. I got the brisket plate and it was very good but will definitely be going with the sausage as the main course next time. Great price for great fresh food can’t wait to come back.

I stopped in today while passing through. The entrance is a little bit confusing, but the entrance is on the street side by the gazebo.
I had a nice talk with the owner and some of his staff.
While waiting for my order, I was asked if I’d be interested in trying a new dessert that they want to add to the menu board. This was some of the best banana pudding that I’ve ever tried.
I ordered a 1/2 pound of Brisket and a half pound of sausage to try, this is how I determine if they know how to smoke meats. In my opinion, they nailed both items perfectly. The sausage had a great snap to the casing and good flavor. The Brisket was over the top good. The seasoning is spot on with the perfect amount of smoke, and it was nice and moist. I didn’t use any BBQ sauce. It was not needed.
I know that I’ll be back for more very soon.

My son and I stopped on our way home from picking up a transmission, and we were hungry. Immediately we were greeted and had the menu explained to us. We both had the brisket plate, mac’n cheese, beans, and cornbread. The food came out fast and was fantastic. We even got to sample the sausages. It was great. Overall an excellent experience. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. They do catering and also have a food truck. It’s worth a drive out there for some good BBQ or if you see their food truck around swing by, you won’t be disappointed.

I ordered the brisket sandwich, the pork sandwich, and the peach cobbler, and I’ve never had better BBQ anywhere. Everything was incredibly moist, tender, and packed with flavor. The peach cobbler was a great finish. On top of that, the service was amazing. Highly recommend this place!

I really wanted to love this place, I ordered the rib plate, corn bread, and peach cobbler. The ribs were charcoal, what meat was eatable tasted like liquid smoke and jalapeño juice. Way to smokey and way to hot! Corn bread was decent. The peach cobbler was some of the best I ever had!

This is like down south BBQ. The brisket was delicious. Seasoned perfect, and juicy. Most places sliced brisket is so dry, Big O’s doesn’t even need sauce. The Cole slaw had an interesting southwestern seasoning style and was fantastic. Sausages were cooked perfectly and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Ribs fell off the bone tasty. Highly suggest, worth a drive to come have this BBQ. Finally up here we have a down south BBQ that’s AWESOME

Wow! What a hidden gem! Ordered for a party of 30. Big O’s provided a great BBQ spread! The flavor was definitely spot on. I’m kicking myself for not ordering more brisket. The pulled pork, while delicious had way too much sauce mixed with it. I could tell it was quality product and wish it wasn’t so sauce-covered. Extra buns were appreciated. Thanks, Otis!
