Let me tell you something. I had plenty of southern BBQ and this place is by far the best! I've had everything on the menu since coming to Dumas visiting my grandma. The ribs are sooooo tender! The beef brisket was off the charts! When I come to town, I make sure this is the 1st stop I make before settling down in my room in Days Inn. read more

This place was awesome! My husband had the pork sandwich and baked beans; I had the polish sandwich and cole slaw. It was wonderful and flavorful. Chris and Jackie were the perfect hosts. Don't miss this place! read more

We passed through Dumas, AR and stopped here for some BBQ. Service was great! Beef sandwich with beans and slaw we awesome!

Was passing through Dumas around lunchtime so I thought I would give Big Boy's a try. It was about 12:30pm and there was only one other customer besides me. I will say the service was top notch as the ladies working there made sure I had everything I needed. The food was good but bordered on average BBQ. read more

We placed a last minute large order and they accommodated us and had all the food ready the very next day and the food is delicious. The location is small and has a few tables that makes a good lunch and dinner spot. The service is very friendly and I'll eat here every time I come to town. I would recommend the whole menu but my favorite is the fish and brisket. read more

My Wife and I stopped in to Big Boy's BBQ on a trip not knowing anything about it. The food was great! I had pork BBQ Dinner and She had a shrimp basket. Both were excellent. The service was great also. It's not fancy inside, but it's worth the stop! read more

In town for work and staying at the hotel beside the restaurant. Food was great and so was the service.

Im a traveling salesman and I try to hit as many of these hidden gems as I possibly can on my routes. A last minute change had me driving through what I thought was literally nowhere. Then behold! Big boys! The special was a sandwich side and drink for $7 but the smell seduced me. I caved and got the big boy. The sampler of samplers. Pork, brisket, ribs, bbq beans, fried okra, and a drink! The people here are friendly and helpful. Everything was good...but if you're indecisive like I am and not trying out for an international eating team...get the ribs! RIBS!!! read more

Big Boy's BBQ - two trays of barbecued meat and sides - Barbeque Near Me - Dumas, Arkansas

Stopped at this wonderful little spot on our way through SE Arkansas, headed for the beach. The first thing to hit me walking through the door is the wonderful aroma of smoked meats. Reminded me of my daddy's bbq place when I was little. The ribs were outstanding - the meat falling off the bones, but still moist and tender. The portions were generous without being wasteful; the sides were all fresh and tasty. Their sauce was a perfect balance of vinegar tartness and sweetness. The lovely people running the place were gracious and kind, checked on us and made our lunch even better with their southern friendliness. Definitely will return!! read more

Excellent straightforward BBQ sandwiches. Reasonably priced for the portions, quality flavor, hand-battered fried goods such as onion rings and fried okra. Polite folks running it! Absolutely immaculate dining area, trays, drink station. Perfect sweet and unsweetened tea. read more

Almost hidden from view on Hwy 65 N beside Days Inn, but look for it if you want some great barbecue! Nice people and good food.

All the side veggies were perfect as was the pork bbq. read more

Hole in the wall excellent BBQ. Read the reviews and decided to take a chance on New Year's Eve for lunch. It took a little longer than normal because they were short staffed, but the food was worth the wait. The staff was very friendly and even brought me out an extra rib to munch on while I waited. We got the rib platter and a brisket sandwich. The ribs were smoky tender and delicious. The brisket sandwich was very moist and tasty. My wife doesn't usually like brisket but she ate the whole sandwich. Said it was the best brisket she'd ever eaten. Fair prices for good size servings. We will stop here regularly on our way to see family in MS. read more

We wanted a quick lunch on the way to Little Rock. Saw Big Boys BBQ House on Yelp, and decided to stopped by. Nothing fancy, it's just a small restaurant right on Hwy 65. We ordered lunch special that came with a small pulled pork sandwich (with Coleslaw), a side, and a drink. The sandwich was wonderful, juicy, smoky and just the right size. As for sides, we ordered potato salad and fried okra. Fried okra was okay but the potato salad was so so. The lady at the restaurant was super nice !!! read more

We stopped in on our way to Little Rock from New Orleans. This place wasn't pretty, but as we parked our car we saw "Big Boy" cooking up some ribs on the big smoker. He came over and introduced himself. What a friendly guy! Pecan wood smoke filled the air! We ordered a pulled pork sandwich and a smoked brisket sandwich both with coleslaw on it. It was amazing! The meat was so tender it melted in our mouths. The BBQ sauce was spiced just right. Our only regret is that we didn't order the jumbo sandwich! What a diamond in the rough! read more
