Big R's BBQ Reviews
I recently had the pleasure of trying out Big R's BBQ in Joplin, and even though it was my first visit, it left a fantastic impression. The ribs were tender and smoky, the brisket was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the sides were just as memorable. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you can really tell they put their heart into the food and the service. Definitely a must-visit if you're in the area!
Great food! Great service! We will definitely be back soon!! ❤️
Improve the quality of the food..the Suzie Q's ..that they are "known for" were greasy and soggy.. disgusting. And hire more staff..they had 1 waitress for all the tables. It's sad.. Big R's used to be the place to go for BBQ. Won't be back unfortunately.
