Tony ordered 6 Ribs w sides of Baked Beans and Mac n Cheese! I took a bite of each!! They were delicious and homemade but I'm dieting.

There is so much space in the front with cornhole boards or just to hang out. When we walked In I could tell this was going to be amazing BBQ. Writing on the walls and chairs, menus board hanging on the wall and daily specials written on chalk boards. Or orders were quickly taken by a very efficient hostess the. We grabbed a seat. I ordered brisket and pork with collards and cobbler. My wife ordered the same with the grits and my son had the side of Mac and cheese with his brisket. The brisket slices were think and it was really well cooked. The pork was awesome but the sides were out of this world. Every single one of them was perfect. There were four BBQ sauces to choose from, Eastern NC style, hot, mild and mustard. I am not a huge fan of mustard BBQ (I'm from NC, IYKYK) but I'll say this was the best I had. The hot was my favorite and it had just the right amount of heat. For those that may be concerned about the description of the writing on the walls and divey spot don't be. The place was clean and very nice. The health rating was great and it was a really nice place.

First off I attempted to order a half chicken & was told they don't serve them until after 1pm. After 1pm? Lunch is dying off by 1 o'clock, in Texas most BBQ joints sell out by 1 oclock if not you're stuck with whatever is left. Secondly, I ordered Brisket. In Texas we ask "Lean or Fatty" I wasn't asked that here which I thought was odd. So I watched the young lady cut the brisket, there wasn't a drop of juice on the cutting board & she tried to cut off the fat and not offer it to me! WHAT!?!?!? I ordered a half pound of sausage and got some super dry...I don't even know if I'd call it sausage. I will just because I don't want to be disrespectful. But it tasted horrible & no cheese in your sausage? You need a fat in sausage to prevent it from being dry! Also ordered a pint of the Brisket Chili...Such a sad attempt at Chili. Tasted like tomato sauce. Sadly it was the moistest thing I paid for. I'll never go back nor will I ever recommend CJ's. Wow, I'm ashamed.

Big Boys BBQ is worth the short drive off the main road. The BBQ was everything you would want - smokey and moist. The sandwich had so much meat it could easily have made 2 sandwiches. The plate comes with 2 sides. I got potato salad and coleslaw. The coleslaw was perfect. It had just the right tang from the vinegar with a light mayo dressing. The potato salad was also fabulous.

However, the server who offered them took our ticket and ghosted us completely. Never even saw again anywhere. A half hour after we sat down another server showed up with our food, which they somehow messed up. My friend ordered the kids pulled pork sandwich with a side of coleslaw and a banana pudding. They brought the coleslaw ON the sandwich instead of a side of coleslaw. Explained it to waitress number 2 who took the sandwich back to get it corrected and bring us some pork rinds. A couple mins later reappeared with pork rinds and a kids pulled pork sandwich with the coleslaw on the side - like a 1 oz bbq sauce size plastic cup of coleslaw, not a side order of coleslaw. My friend just shook her head and let it ride because now it was almost 45 mins after we sat down. Our receipt wasn't itemized so we couldn't even check to see what we were charged for.

You order at the counter and they prepare your food as you are on the other side of the glass. There is one person that does the meat and then the tray gets passed to the next person who gets your sides for you. Then you move to the register where you give your drink order and pay your tab. You are given the option to pay with a card or get a discount for cash. You get your drinks and find a table. As busy as they were, we wondered if we would be able to find a table. There were plenty of they also have some tables outside but it was super hot. I had the pulled pork plate and my son and husband both had the chopped brisket. The pork was good but the brisket was amazing. Brisket is amazing when done right and this was done very right. Full of flavor and moist and juicy. AMAZING. You have three different sauces you can try. They are at the tables. Hot, regular and mustard based. All had great flavor and the hot wasn't real hot. As sides we had the Brunswick stew, Mac and Cheese and cheesy hash browns. The Brunswick stew is less chunky and more fine. The flavor was good. The Mac and cheese was very creamy in a white cheese sauce. It was really good. The hash browns were full of flavor. I would definitely order the Mac and cheese and hashbrowns again but probably would skip the Brunswick stew. Not that it wasn't good. I would just try other menu items first. Just FYI. No alcohol. But you're coming here for the food. You won't even miss having an adult beverage. The tea is freshly brewed and all you need. All three of us left stuffed. I took half of my meal home with me. They definitely give you plenty to eat. We shared a banana pudding at the end because my son wanted to try it. It was very rich and creamy. Not sure if it is available every day because the menu just offers a dessert of the day. Two of us shared it and there was plenty to share. Of course, this was after we each had already eaten our dinners. And we're already stuffed. But the person at the table behind us was raving about how good it was so we couldn't resist. The employees were friendly and they kept the line moving. There were two kind ladies out in the dining area refilling drinks and making sure tables were cleaned as soon as people left. This is the kind of food you dream about after you've been there. So very good. We will definitely be back soon.
