1000/10 Me and my bf go every week for the newest burger and it never misses! Slightly pricey but worth every penny especially with how much you get to take home. The people there are great. Everything’s amazing 😩😂

Went with a group tonight, we loved our food. Brisket was falling apart, potatoes, beans, luscious cornbread and deserts - cookies, ice creams puddings. Corn on the cob - yummm. Much to choose from. Just go!

We love good barbecue, so while we were in town on business I looked up local barbecue places. This was close to our hotel so we decided to go here. The barbecue place is it an unassuming Plaza storefront, so I wasn't sure what to expect. There wasn't a lot of traffic at that point so I was wondering if I had made a mistake in my choice.
Once we went inside the restaurant, we were greeted cheerfully, and the barbecue smell was amazing. We ended up choosing ribs and brisket, along with macaroni and cheese, beans, and cornbread. Everything we tried was delicious. The portions were generous.
The brisket had a wonderful coating from the dry rub with a lot of flavor. The ribs came right off the bone, and there were choices of three different sauces, which appeared to be homemade. The beans were good, and the macaroni and cheese had a lot of flavor.
I also tried a specialty bottled soda, I think it was honey blonde root beer, and it's worth it! I'd never seen that flavor before or that brand even and it was great.
The staff was very helpful, very friendly, and stopped back several times to see if we needed anything. By the time we left the place had filled up with steady traffic. If we come back here on business, I will definitely make this my first restaurant stop.

Best BBQ in Pittsburgh. The brisket is incredible. Also, tried the turkey breast and kielbasa, both were great. Sides are also solid. If you are looking for legit BBQ, come here.

Don’t pass this place up!! Cozy atmosphere and friendly faces. I got the brisket burger-of-the-week, it was deliciously juicy and served with a big heap of fresh perfectly seasoned fries. There were tons of other sandwiches and menu items I’m excited to try next time. Well worth the quick detour off the PA Turnpike, this will be a regular stop for me on future roadtrips!

Stopped here on a whim and it was great! The portions are huge and absolutely worth the price. The service was great. Spoke to the owner, he was extremely nice. Best BBQ in Monroeville. Would recommend the potato salad, one of the best I’ve ever had.

Stopped here after Steel City Con for lunch. I grew up on the VA/NC border, and I’m used to having good BBQ. No doubt, Big Rig might be the best barbecue I’ve ever had anywhere. I was in a group of four big dudes, and everyone loved their various dishes and the portions are huge. Great service, great food. 100% will be back again.
