A recent visit had me turn around and leave. Dirty and the prep areas were disgusting. We left before ordering. Today I read this read more

Big C's BBQ - Rib Dinner w/ Mac and Cheese and Baked Beans - Barbeque Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Found this place while staying nearby for some Ray's games. Not far from the stadium. This is the BBQ place you want to find....very divey looking and the one of the best BBQ ive had. Definitely one of the best BBQ sauce which they sell in bottles. You will definitely want to buy a bottle to take home. Really no place to sit, you will want to plan to take out for your visit. Great ribs and pulled pork, some of the best ive ever had, and the sauce definitely made it. I want to go back to try some of the other items. read more

The worst bbq period. I say that because one week they might grill the food the next they might boil the food the seasoning and taste is not consistent I spent $50 one week it was great spent $40 the next the ribs were boiled with no seasoning I am so disappointed read more

Very delicious meal! The ribs were fall of the bone. The Mac was cheesy and creamy. The hostess was very polite and the food was ready in less than 10 minutes. There is also a sign inside that says there are free chicken dinners on your birthday (with valid i.d.), which is pretty cool too. read more

Big C's BBQ - Rib Dinner with Mac & Cheese and Crab Salad. - Barbeque Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Not happy with them. Im a regular customer all sudden thr closed on tues wed Sunday Monday like wat is going on? Im not to happy

This is the real deal. I love BBQ and I'm a BBQ snob. So, when I read the reviews, I said "Let me check this place out".. and I'm glad I did. The previous reviews are spot on. It's a little hole in the wall place with just take out. I had the pulled pork sandwich one day and came back another day for the chicken. Just as an FYI, the chicken is not a "pulled chicken" as I had thought .. it has bones and served on a slice of bread, rather than in a bun. So, don't go biting down thinking it's shredded chicken, because it's not. The pulled pork is exactly what you'd expect -- no bones. Their sauce is really good. I'm not sure what makes the flavor so good, but it's good. Parking can be a bit of an issue as their lot only has enough space for a few cars and sometimes cars come in the exit, so be careful. You can park on the side street and walk over... easy. read more

Really good bbq. The sides (mac & chesse, potato salad and baked beans) were fantastic. A rib dinner that could have fed 2 for under $20. What a great find. Thank you yelp. read more

Super bbq! Great sauce, too. Very sweet women helped me. I'll have to try a slice of cake next time. Looked pretty yummy

We stumble up on big C's barbecue we was there a Devil rays game, and I had a taste for some barbecue. We check it out on yelp and it was less than a mile from the stadium we was not disappointment. The barbecue was good. The ribs and chicken and the dessert was excellent. The staff was very helpful and what we chose to eat. This was our first time, but definitely would not be out of the house. read more

Really nice people but the food was kinda average. We had the ribs, I'll be honest, we're used to KC and Texas BBQ and this just doesn't come close. read more

There is nothing better than a small owned BBQ joint! My husband and I were driving up from south Florida when we were on the lookout for some BBQ on the way home. I did not want a chain one so that helped eliminate some of the options that are closer to our house. Upon a Yelp search, Big c's popped up and with it only being a few minutes off the Highway and not too out of the way, we decided to give it a try! My husband and I both picked the combo tray which comes with get this...a chopped pork or beef sandwich, ribs AND chicken with their sauce drizzled over it. The sandwich was just the thing we needed after a long 4 hour drive home in the Florida sun. What I liked about the sandwich was that it was not doused in their BBQ sauce giving you the perfect balance of taste between the chopped pork and the sauce and both complemented each other well. The ribs...fall off the bone need I say more. The chicken wasn't our favorite of the three but one) we are boneless kind of people unless it's wings and 2) even for not being our favorite, for $14 for all of that it was still worth every penny to give it a try! I couldn't decide on what sides I wanted so we basically got all but two and man did they not disappoint. The top picks for sure were the mac and cheese, the green beans and the baked beans. My two year old is on a Mac and cheese only diet these days and her first bite was followed with a loud "MMmmmm" so also kid approved. As far as drinks, we tried the fruit punch that is made in house and let's just say that we finished one of the two before we even reached home to have with our meals. If I had to complain about one thing, it would be the torture of having to smell the food in our car for 20 minutes before we got home to enjoy it! It was well worth the pit stop for sure. read more

I love a good hole in the wall local spot. This is my second time at Big C's and I loved it as equally as I did the first! Its a small building with an even smaller parking lot. If you aren't paying attention, you might miss it. This go round I got the sample plate. You get a choice of a chopped beef or pork sandwich (I had beef) with ribs and chicken. I'm not a fan of dark meat chicken BUT everything was tender and delicious. The sauce is a sweet with a mustand twang to it. I had to get two sides of greens. They are SO good! They remind me of Sunday mornings, helping my gma clean cut, and simmer them in a pot! read more

Big C's BBQ - Sampler plate- chopped beef sandwich, ribs and chicken - Barbeque Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

This place is so, so good. And the people working there are fast and kind. Tempted to not write a review because I don't want this place to become too popular, but they deserve all the accolades. I got the rib dinner with collard greens and crab salad. I don't know if I've ever had collard greens and they claim to be the best in the city. They're the best in the world imo. I could eat those collard greens til I was green in the face. And the ribs were just so, so good. Love this place. read more

I'm extremely confused at where these reviews are coming from. That food was not good. The ribs weren't like any ribs I've ever seen or tasted and the BBQ sauce was more like ketchup? Mac b cheese was bland and too watery. The crab salad was inedible and just tasted awful. It was like play food made by kids or someone who just started learning how to cook. The best way I can describe it would be like a cafeteria lunch from an underfunded public school. You'll eat it because you paid for it and you're hungry but it's not something you will ever crave or willingly go eat. read more

Big C's BBQ - Rib Dinner - Barbeque Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Everything I got was very good. Their World Famous $5 chopped chicken is out of this world good. A steal. Ribs and chopped beef are also very good as are the collard greens and mac n cheese. The smoker is out back. This is the real deal. Get some! Grandma makes the desserts. Banana pudding was on point. I have to try the red velvet and butter pecan cake. The crab salad side dish is also on my list to try next time. Pretty much a takeout place. I don't think they have tables. But they do have a carry out window. And parking. And BBQ. Which is all you need. read more

Saw the reviews for this place and had to give them a try. Always looking for a good BBQ joint and it delivered. The rib meat was fall off the bone moist, the chicken had great smoky flavor and the pulled pork was juicy. And they are all cut into bite sized easy to handle pieces. Baked beans are awesome, the best we've had in a long time, potato salad is good, a little too much mustard for my taste but still good. However the Mac & cheese is lacking in flavor, even just a little salt and pepper would help. The mustard based BBQ sauce is amazing and just the right flavor profile but it's way too much in the platter. Everything was smothered. So much sauce that you couldn't pick up your sandwich/bread. Next time will have to ask for sauce on the side. Overall we were pleased with this little place with big flavors!! It was so much food that we could've shared the sampler and been fine. Staff was friendly and food came out quick. It's a small business with a tiny driveway and a little parking lot, so be careful. The store is cozy and clean. It's a must visit. read more

Best BBQ I've had in a very long time, certainly the best in Pinellas right now. Ribs were perfect, tender, good smoke, terrific sauce. All sides were great. Take-out only. A real hidden gem, I'll be a regular. read more

This was my first time trying this place. Based into he previous Yelp reviews, I wanted to give it a go. I'm glad that I did. I ordered the rib dinner. The meat was flavorful and tender, perfect amount of sauce. The greens, Mac and cheese, and sweet potatoes were all delicious. The meal came with a free drink and I chose their homemade fruit punch.... yummy!! I'll be back to enjoy again and try other meats and sides. read more

The pulled pork was flavorful and tender. The potatoes are off the hook delicious! We will definitely be eating here again. Outstanding food and friendly, fast service. read more

The food is 10/10 ALWAYS. The staff is nice and friendly. And the place just feels welcoming.

Stopped here for lunch and had the chopped beef and a side of baked beans. Absolute fire. The sandwich wasn't anything fancy but just hit the spot. The BBQ sauce wasn't a traditional sauce more like a Carolina. I will 100% be back to try some other items. read more

Authentic down south non-commercialized family owned no-frills barbecue, not so friendly service but that's quite all right with me because the food is good nowhere to sit that I saw but fast take out service. Will try and hit this place up when I am in town. Seems like a real family owned spot. read more

This is the best BBQ place in Florida. Carry out only. Get the chicken but everything is good. The sampler of different meats is a great deal. Food is awesome, prices and service is fast! This place is so good that when I flew in we stopped here first to pick up food - before even checking into our hotel. read more

Decent tasting BBQ, but appalling customer service. Do you like not having one word spoken to you and being treated like an absolute nuisance by the cashier for supporting local restaurants? Then look no further. No matter how good the food is, I will never return because of how you treat your customers. read more

Well I can start with the obvious..the Chopped Chicken tray for $5 is phenomenal in so many ways..taste, portion, value! I got an extra and deboned to make chicken salad. Omg!! The place is very clean, the staff was welcoming. Will be back! Side note: I also got a side of crab salad. Never had it before and was curious. Either it's not a flavor I like, or it may have been old. I love crab anything, usually. But this salad had a sour taste. Not rancid, so that's why it may be the seasonings. Either way, I won't be ordering that again. Still 5 stars for me!! read more

This is the best bbq I have ever had! The meat falls right off the bones! I had the rib dinner with Mac and cheese and green beans and I didn't have to add salt, everything was perfectly seasoned. The lady at the front counter was very helpful read more

Probably one of the best barbecue places I've eaten in quite a long time... The beef brisket, barbecue sandwich is a fork and knife sandwich... Excellent value for the money... The ribs chicken and sides are absolutely awesome... The staff is very friendly and helpful... Also, check out their homemade desserts... I normally reserve my five star reviews, but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised... This restaurant is takeout only however, if you find yourself driving past, do yourself a favor and give it a try... You won't be disappointed... FYI, I was so impressed by the food I ate all of it before I took any pictures... L O L... Photos to come later... read more

Big C's BBQ - The meat platter. Understood the assignment!!! - Barbeque Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

The sauce is pure gold here. Pairs perfectly with the grilled charred flavor of the chicken. You get chopped chicken and 1 piece of bread with sauce for $5. Considerably large amount that you can share for only 5 bucks. The place is small but clean with a quick service counter for ordering and pick-up the staff here is amazing. They welcomed me with a warm smile and immediately make you feel like a part of their family. The ordering process went by quickly as they efficiently moved to through each order. Perfect place to grab a quick bite for lunch. read more
