My husband stopped here on his way to take our son to college and told me to stop here on my way to visit. Delicious and good prices! It came out really fast and people were so friendly! Would definitely eat here again.

We stopped here with a group of 20 on a Saturday morning at 11:30 am. (We called two days ahead of time.) Waited over an hour for our food. No ice. Out of french fries. Wait staff was very courteous and apologetic. .Once we got our food, it was delicious.

We stopped here with our church group of 20 on a Saturday morning at 11:30 am. (We called two days ahead of time to tell them we were coming) They were totally unprepared for us! No ice and half the fountain drinks were empty. After we ordered we were told they were out of french fries. We waited well over an hour for our food.It turned into a 2 hour stop. The wait staff was very courteous and apologetic but obviously overwhelmed. Once we finally got our food, it was delicious. Might be great for a couple or small family, but cannot recommend for a group. We were very disappointed as our lunch choice was based on positive online reviews.

Fantastic BBQ and friendly staff. Highly recommended. Plan on digging in and having sticky fingers when through. Probably best BBQ ive had in several years.

Big Boy’s BBQ: Great Food, but Operational Challenges
I had dinner at Big Boy’s BBQ yesterday and was impressed by the quality of the food. We ordered the fish fry, and it was cooked to perfection—crispy, flavorful, and paired with sides that were equally delicious. However, while the food was commendable, the overall experience left much to be desired.
Upon entering, we were promptly greeted by the hostess, who informed us that the fountain soda machine was out of order. While understandable, there didn’t seem to be an immediate workaround in place, such as offering canned or bottled drinks upfront. We did order tea, but no ice was available, we settled with lukewarm tea with our meal. This small oversight set the tone for a series of operational hiccups.
When I ordered an appetizer, I was informed that no appetizers were available. I then asked for coffee, given the cold and rainy weather, only to find that coffee wasn’t an option either. To round things off, dessert was also unavailable. These repeated limitations detracted from the overall dining experience, making it feel incomplete despite the quality of the food.
To compound the issues, payment at the end of the meal was unnecessarily challenging. The point-of-sale system appeared to be experiencing ongoing glitches, which created delays and frustration for both staff and patrons. While standing at the register, I noticed the hostess struggling to collect payment from other customers. Interestingly, she eventually offered bottled 16oz Cokes to other patrons as an alternative to the broken soda machine, yet this option was never mentioned to us earlier in the evening.
Big Boy’s BBQ serves excellent food, but operational improvements are needed to enhance the overall experience. A few suggestions: • Stock canned or bottled drinks as a backup for when the fountain machine is out of order. • Consider investing in a simple coffee maker for cold days. • Ensure reliable payment options by upgrading to a more dependable system, such as Square.
While the food earns this restaurant a solid 3 stars, the overall experience left a poor impression. With some adjustments to their operations, Big Boy’s BBQ has the potential to match its quality food with an equally strong customer experience.

BBQ pork sandwich melts in your mouth plenty of meat on this delicious sandwich. Ask for slaw to add even more deliciousness. We always stop here on our way to Vicksburg. The lady that runs it is very very nice. It’s a very clean place. Be sure and get a fork because you will need it.
