Big Lee's - Serious About BBQ

This was honestly the best barbecue I’ve ever had, pulled pork and brisket that literally melt in your mouth. I didn’t think it was possible, but Lee’s has done it! 🍖🍗 100 out of 100 🤠👍🏼 A must stop when in Ocala

There are not enough stars to give here... This place is AMAZING! Best bbq I've ever eaten. So much flavor
without being salty. You can taste the
juicy meat. My husband and I are buying
a home in Ocala, and we will be regulars
at Big Lee's. Y'all are doing it exactly right!!

Big Lee's - Serious About BBQ is hands down the best BBQ spot in Florida! I’ve tried so many BBQ joints across the state, and to be honest, most of the BBQ in FL is pretty mediocre. But then I found Big Lee’s, and everything changed. From the moment I walked in, the aroma hit me, and I knew I was in for something special. The meats are perfectly smoked, tender, and bursting with flavor—especially the brisket and ribs. The sides are equally amazing, and you can tell they put a lot of love and care into every dish. If you're in Florida and want BBQ that truly lives up to the hype, Big Lee's is the place to go. Don’t settle for anything less—this spot is a game-changer!

First saw you on Triple D, knew that I had to try some.
We were in town visiting family and my brother in law is a regular so he picked up a variety of meats and sides. All of it was amazing and your Blueberry Moonshine bbq sauce is off the chain!
The next time we are in Ocala I am coming to the restaurant!

Big Lee's – Serious About BBQ is a must-visit spot for anyone craving delicious, hearty BBQ in Ocala. From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel welcome, even offering us the chance to sample some of their sides before making our decision. This thoughtful touch was much appreciated and helped us choose our meal with confidence.

The BBQ meat itself was tender and flavorful, cooked to perfection. Each bite melted in your mouth, and you could tell they truly care about the quality of their food. The portions were generous, especially the "meal for two" – it was more than enough to satisfy both of us, and we had plenty left over to take home.

Their homemade sauces were the perfect complement, adding just the right amount of kick without overpowering the smoky goodness of the meat. Overall, Big Lee's is hands down one of the best BBQ joints in Ocala. If you're in the area, don’t miss out on this fantastic spot for mouthwatering, expertly prepared BBQ!

First of all when I walked in I was greeted by Jasmine. She was very nice and pleasant. She told me read the little special board. I did that. She was very informative about all the specials. She did not take long give me my food. And the young man Adam was very nest with preparing and cutting my meat. It was very neat and the presentation made the meat look very good. Also the young man Tyree brought me my food when it was ready cause I didn’t know they called me. I wanted to try you cause I saw your restaurant on the food show with Guy. The food was what I expected. Jasmine , Adam and Tyree need raise’s. Their customer service was superb. You better keep them cause good employees with good customer service is hard to find. I will return to Big Lees…. O yea Jasmine gave us the history on your shrine of BIG LEE…good food.
