Big B's Texas BBQ

Born and raised Texan here and after 4yrs in Vegas I've finally found my BBQ place. Of course, Texas is in the name! I had the brisket...and asked for it chopped. BBQ sauce is on the table (as it should be)...the meat's so good it doesn't need it. They had no problem making my fried okra extra crispy. And, the green beans took some liberties but might be better than traditional ones. Proper sweet tea and a great setting. Dont miss this place if you're looking for Texas-style BBQ. Thats all she wrote!

Just walking in the front door, I could smell this was gonna be some GOOOOD BBQ! The place was done up TEXAS!! The staff was welcoming and friendly. They explained how to order and took their time to make sure you knew what you were getting. They made some great suggestions and we ended up having more than enough to eat. The dining room was very clean and their were tables large enough to accommodate parties of all sizes. There was even a super mindful hand washing station right there for all to use. Great Job y'all!! Keep up the super job!

This was my first time coming to this location which is closer to my house. It was late so I got my food to go. I always dine in at their other location and most bbq places I go to. The dining area seems bigger since it looks like one place instead of separated like at the other location. It is similarly decorated the way a bbq place should look with the wood and signs on the wall. I got the Ultimate Bbq Sandwich which comes with Brisket , Pulled Pork , and a Hot Link with Slaw. It's one of my favorites at Jessie Rae's so I had to do a comparison. I usually get a 2 or 3 Meat Plate at Big B's on St. Rose. I got Corn On The Cobb and Bbq Beans as my sides and the Spicy Bbq Sauce. The Brisket and Pulled Pork was very good , in fact I think this time the Brisket was better here than the last 2 times I got it at St Rose location. This was the first time I had their Hot Link and it was okay , but Jessie Rae's Hot Link is better. Corn On The Cob was fresh , hot , and good. The Bbq Beans as usual was very good , but this time I didn't have any pieces of Brisket in it like I usually get. The Spicy Bbq was was perfect for the sandwich. It's so big I use a fork because it will just fall apart which is to be expected , but this way you get to try everything and for a good price. I've had their Baby Back Ribs at the St Rose location and they are some of the best in town. The cashier was nice and I got my food fairly quickly. The restaurant and counter area was clean and well organized. I would definitely recommend you coming here if you've never been. There are a ton of bbq restaurants in Las Vegas , but most are mediocre or just plain not worth going to. Over the past few years the quality of bbq in Vegas has gone downhill. Big's B's has been consistently good for me.

Big B’s Texas Barbecue, located at 8125 W Sahara Ave, Las Vegas, is one of the best barbecue spots in the city. The brisket is absolutely fantastic, very tender, juicy, and full of authentic Texas BBQ flavor. You can really tell the meat is slow-smoked to perfection. The customer service is excellent. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. We were very well taken care of, which made the whole experience even better. Another big plus is the easy parking, which is not always common in Las Vegas. The location is convenient, the place is clean, and the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. The prices are fair and reasonable for the quality and portion sizes you get, making it a great value for both locals and tourists looking for real Texas-style barbecue in Las Vegas. Overall, Big B’s Texas Barbecue delivers amazing food, great service, and a stress-free dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant, and I will definitely be coming back.

A True Taste of Texas in the Heart of Vegas! As a longtime fan of authentic Texas BBQ, I can confidently say that Big B's on Sahara Ave is the real deal. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of mesquite smoke hits you, and you know you're in for something special. This isn't just a meal; it's an experience. The brisket is the star of the show. I went for the moist cut, and it was unbelievably tender, with a perfect peppery bark and a melt-in-your-mouth texture that shows it's been slow-smoked for hours. It's easily some of the best brisket I've had outside of the Lone Star State. The baby back ribs were also fantastic—fall-off-the-bone tender with a delicious glaze that complements the smoky flavor without overpowering it. And let's not forget the sides! The mac and cheese is rich and creamy, and the BBQ beans are the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. The colossal baked potato is a meal in itself, loaded with your choice of meat and all the fixings. The service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere feels like a classic Texas smokehouse. If you're looking for genuine, no-frills, top-tier barbecue in Las Vegas, you absolutely have to stop by Big B's. It's a 5-star experience all the way.

This restaurant is great value, you get a lot of food. Highlight from the meats we got was definitely the brisket, so much better than the pulled pork and beef ribs in our opinion. The cornbread was also very good.

We have been waiting for so long for this location to open! Although the new location is twice as far for us we were excited to have Big B's again. And we were not disappointed in the least. Brisket was on point and fatty juicy and melt in your mouth good. Beef ribs were good but I could tell they had been sitting out a while as they were a bit dry. Overall it was a great experience, I believe w spoke with the owner who came by our table. Very nice and humble man. Best BBQ in Vegas!

Stopped through while on a trip to Vegas and it was a solid BBQ experience. I had a two meat combo with turkey and the fatty brisket, corn and beans for sides while my daughter tried the pulled pork with corn and green beans. Both meals were solid. I'd probably go for the lean brisket over the fatty on my next stop. Service was quick for a Sunday afternoon.

Big Bs was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and while we were ordering the owner came out and let us try the brisket. We ate here two times while we were there. great food and great prices.

I used to live in Texas for 5 years so I know what bbq is supposed to taste like. Big Bs is a little different from Texas bbq in the sense their sauces are limited, their beef ribs are smaller, and they don't make Texas Twinkies (jalapeño and cream cheese wrapped in bacon) and a few other details. However, I would choose Big Bs over any of them for a few reasons. First, the price is right. It was only $21 for 4 medium beef ribs. That is an insane deal. In Texas they will give you 1 beef rib which will average anywhere between $40-$60 depending on place and weight. And my ribs were perfect! Now for the cons: there were no diet sodas because the machine was broken or something. I let it go this time but it is a potential dealbreaker for me. The next time I go I am gonna bring my own sodas if they are still out. If they have a problem with that then they can call the cops to get me out because that is unacceptable for a restaurant. Another issue was the pork ribs which were a little dry. I would not recommend them since their beef ribs are so good. Another issue I have is that their sauces are limited. Their sauces are ok, but they need more variety.

My wife and I just tried Big B's Texas Barbecue for the first time tonight, and wow we finally found our barbecue spot in Vegas. It instantly reminded us of Rudy's Barbecue back in Albuquerque, which we used to love. Same kind of setup where you walk in, place your order at the counter, and then grab a seat at the shared barbecue-style tables. Very laid back, casual, and exactly the kind of vibe you want when you're craving good BBQ. The food was fantastic. The brisket was juicy and perfectly cooked, the tri-tip was tender and full of flavor, and the pulled pork was excellent. Even the fries were amazing. And I have to mention the biscuit soft, buttery, and absolutely delicious. What really stood out though was the service. The staff were incredibly polite, attentive, and welcoming, which always makes a big difference for us. We've lived in Vegas for almost four years and have been searching for a barbecue place that hits the mark like this. Safe to say the search is over. We'll definitely be back.

Before the food even gets here for me to form an opinion, I want to say 5 stars for the fried okra on the menu. Not only do they have okra, but they also have Blue Bell ice cream, Big Red soda and Lone Star. Oh and according to one member of a party, they have Dr Pepper and that's a winner for him. Time to see how they do a brisket. The rest of the table got ribs and chicken wings. This reviewer only cares about the brisket. It's good and I would come back here but as a picky brisket consumer I wouldn't put I in my top five. The Okra is right up there though. The fries are good too Mix the regulars bbq sauce with the spicy and you will be good to go.

Not bad. Just was not overly impressed. Smells great in the parking lot, maybe just not best day. Brisket was moist, but bit bland and with zero crust.

We took our family, seven of us, to Big B's Texas Barbecue and what a find! From the moment we walked in, it just felt right. The place is so charming inside very homey and comfortable with that cozy Western vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. There are TVs everywhere, so it's perfect if you want to catch any game and the layout's great with a bar on one side, plenty of seating on the other. You walk up, order at the counter, and then they bring the food right to your table, so easy and relaxed. Every single person we dealt with from the counter crew to the servers was friendly and helpful. The food came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The barbecue was smoky and tender, prices were very reasonable, and the whole atmosphere just makes you happy to be there. We'll definitely be back.

A lot of food too much for one person tried the ultimate bbq sandwich with bbq beans and macaroni and cheese

Disgusting ribs and beans.. and mushy macaroni and cheese.. don't let the good reviews fool you.. first and last time in this low quality place the baked beans are mostly freakin sauce and the flavor sucks

My husband and I went for lunch on a Monday and there were just a few tables of patrons inside the large establishment. There were plenty of tables to choose from and the restaurant had a Texas/cowboy type theme. We ordered a half rack of beef ribs (4 ribs total) and a pound of moist brisket. For the sides we got potato salad, mac n cheese and green beans. The sides were good- no complaints and the brisket was delicious (moist, juicy, soft). I did think the ribs were a bit overcooked (I didn't enjoy the charred bits) which is why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5.

Big B's knows their way around Texas brisket. Great hot links too. As someone who lived in Texas for several years, I can say the brisket and links were on point. Good sides too. I've been twice in the past week and tried the smoked turkey the last time. Very good and super tender. Will be back again

Great service. Came out quickly. Brisket was very tender. Good portions. Nice ambience and clean place

Big B's serves up some delicious BBQ and sides. The brisket (get it moist!) won't let you down. Sausages have good casing. All the sides I've enjoyed include buttery, garlicky green bean, sweet and smoky baked beans, refreshing potato salad, and creamy mac and cheese. The restaurants' dining area is spacious, so seating shouldn't be an issue. There is even a bar.

We visited for lunch on a Saturday, with 3 adults and 2 small children, and it was a pleasant experience. We arrived right at 1100, grabbed a table and proceeded to the ordering line. You order at the counter and they bring your food to the table. We ordered a few meats; a pound of Brisket, a pound of Pulled Pork, half pound of Tri Tip and a half rack of Baby Back Ribs. We then added sides; Potato Salad, Mac & Cheese, and Baked Beans. All the items were well prepared, fresh and very tasty. I would have preferred table service, but the workers were very friendly and prompt. The one issue we had was that they advertise a full bar, and we saw it. However, they had no one manning the bar while we were there. The beer was nice and cold from the ordering counter, but a margarita would have been nice. Overall, excellent BBQ.

Big B's Texas BBQ is much larger than you might expect when you first walk in. The setup is straightforward--you order and pay at the counter, then they bring the food out to your table. Drinks and utensils are self-serve, which I actually appreciate because it keeps things easy and casual. The space itself is very relaxed with huge tables that are perfect for groups, plus plenty of TVs that give it a laid-back vibe. It's the kind of place where you don't feel rushed, and it's easy to hang out for a while. Pricing felt like a great value for what you get--generous portions at a fair price. The food itself was solid BBQ. While I'm not the biggest American barbecue fan personally, I thought everything was flavorful and well done. A couple of things that weren't my favorite: the plastic silverware and cups. It's not a dealbreaker, but worth mentioning if that kind of thing bothers you. Overall, I'd definitely come back. It's a comfortable spot with good food at a good value, and I can see it being a go-to for families or groups looking for a relaxed BBQ experience.

As this was a new place, every time I drove by I wanted to try it. I was surprised it was not overly crowded. The decor was full of Texas memorabilia such as flags and jerseys. It's the perfect place to bring the family to enjoy some good food and watch the games. You stood in line in a small maze and ordered your food from a counter. Things seem to run smoothly. I loved the bar area was separate as it was on the opposite side of the room. We ordered the Colossal potato and the brisket Po' boy sandwich that came with 2 sides' The brisket was cooked perfectly! Was moist and tender with tons of flavor! The table had bbq sauce and other fixings plus a roll of paper towels. The bread was extremely soft. We got the Mac and cheese which was creamy and delicious. The second side was homemade fries! Was not too greasy. The colossal potato loved up to its name and it included your choice of meat and I had the pulled pork. You had a choice of Mac and cheese or beans. I chose the beans. It was toasted and had a good amount of toppings with sour cream and cheese. I was not able to finish it. The owner greeted us at our table and asked how things were. That was a nice touch! If you want good bbq this is the spot! Much better than Famous Dave's and Rollin Smoke! The prices are very reasonable. The also offer BlueBell ice cream and a variety of desserts. Was too full to try them. Definitely will be back!

This place offers a great budget friendly and hearty meal for individuals and families. They are in a place with ample parking. Their staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable about their product. The decor is sports bar esque but not intrusive for non sports fans. Games are on but the volume is still good for conversation or watching. As for the seating, it's wooden picnic tables with paper towel rolls and a variety of bbq sauces. As for the food, I can't recommend the brisket enough. It was melt in your mouth tender and super flavorful. Don't forget your Bbq sauce for dipping. The cornbread has a great texture with bits of corn and is worth the extra money. As for sides, the Mac and cheese was super flavorful but was missing texture for me. The potato salad was tangy and well balanced in texture and flavor. If I saw one of these, I would not hesitate to stop in for a quick bite.

Perfectly portioned, smokey, tender, and finger licking good to the last bite. The service was quick and easy for a thurday evening. The football games are on but not blasting. Walls are covered with Texas pride. The menu is large and easy to read with all the meats by the 1/2 or full lb, sides, and plated options. It is reasonably priced and well worth every penny. I have been to the other location on st rose which is always packed we are so happy to have one closer to our side of town.

Had dinner at Big B's Texas BBQ. We each ordered something different so we could try everything. My favorite was the brisket, potato salad and pork. This place is a hidden little gem. Service was great, they kept checking on us. The restaurant is clean and inviting. Our food was delicious. See my pics

I stopped by here last week for takeout for the first time and I'm so glad I did. I tried the moist brisket, baby back ribs, and two kinds of their sausages -- everything was tender, smoky, and full of flavor. The brisket had that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture, and the ribs were amazingggg. The sausages were juicy as well-- you could really taste the quality of the meat. The potato salad was a standout too -- creamy, perfectly seasoned, and the ideal balance to all the rich, smoky BBQ. It's one of those sides you don't expect to love as much as the main dish, but I seriously could've eaten a whole bowl of it lol Service was great too. The lady at the register was super friendly and helped me pick out what to get since it was my first time. Her suggestions were spot on, and my cravings were satisfied. If you're a fan of good BBQ, this place is definitely worth checking out. I'll 100% be coming back to try the rest of the menu next time!

The food is great excellent service ambience western food great portions tender beats Smoky flavor must try

"This was the worst BBQ experience I've ever had. I won't get into all the details, but I had to return my food--and the staff showed no remorse whatsoever. I strongly recommend staying away from this place." Can you call these charcoal beef ribs?

Delicious in every aspect of bbq. Brisket is so moist and you can get it lean if you don't like the fat. The turkey is sooo moist and the ribs literally fall off the bone without the meat being dried out. This is our go to for bbq. There are many sides to choose from - our favorites are potato salad, green beans and cream corn. Just a great place overall

Been there 2 times now. It's worth the drive to get to. Next time I'm going to try the ribs.

This was my first time coming to this location which is closer to my house. It was late so I got my food to go. I always dine in at their other location and most bbq places I go to.

Big's B's has been consistently good for me.

Everyone says that the ribs in Texas are the best. When we traveled to the state of Texas, we were not impressed but at Big B's Texas barbecue the ribs, brisket, and pulled pork were fantastic. You place your order at the counter and then they bring it to you. The staff is extremely friendly and someone has always checking on you to make sure everything meets your satisfaction. We will definitely be back.

Walked up to the counter and was helped so quickly and got our food almost like 10 min after we ordered.... not baaad!! Had the brisket, tri tip and the beef ribs here... Walked in about at closing time but still enough time to order a tall 805 and eat some bomb BBQ in Vegas. One of the better BBQ restaurants I've been to with my bf... We really enjoyed the brisket got a little fat in it and it was tasty, also the beef ribs were just perfect. The only thing lacking was was the tri tip was a little dry but the other two made up for that. The sides were also fire, the fried okra and the Mac and cheese were both killer and would for sure order them again. You looking for a solid BBQ spot out in Vegas this is my fav so far ....

Popped in for the Notre Dame-Texas A&M game to meet some friends. Super impressive decor, great service and -- most importantly -- arguably the best BBQ in town. I can't think of anyone doing it as well in Las Vegas. I ordered the three-meat combo, choosing brisket, pulled pork and tri tip with fried okra (my favorite) and fries (also my favorite cut). Went with the spicy BBQ sauce. The okra was so good, I almost took another pint to go for later. The brisket nailed it, the pulled pork made me wish I had a side of cornbread (fail!) to pair with it because it's made for a killer pull pork sandwich, and the tri-tip was on point. Our table also enjoyed the smoked turkey. Super consistent. Producing high quality Texas BBQ. Great place to watch your favorite sporting events and a very welcoming bar area if you want to keep your experience 21-and-older. Super happy they're in this new location on West Sahara.

I want to love this place!! The flavor is good, the service is kind and friendly. However I ALWAYS feel sick afterwards as does my husband. Between acid reflux and congestion, after several attempts we just won't go there for bbq anymore. The place itself is welcoming and fun decor.

Big B's Texas BBQ re-opened its second location just prior to August 2025, and on Sunday evening the Restaurant at 8125 West Sahara Avenue showed again why any discussion of local smoked Meat has began and ended with Brian and Natalia's brand since 2016. Named after its Pit Master, and changing the long-held belief that Las Vegas is not a Barbeque town ever since the original opened in Henderson, Big B's Texas BBQ features the work of Brian Buechner and Natalia Badzjo, the husband and wife team taking a hands-on approach to every aspect of the operation from build-out to driving in fresh piles of wood as needed from the Lone Star State. Always working with a great crew while doing brisk business for dine-in and take-out, guests entering location number two will immediately notice Brian's handy work in wood tables and chairs flanking a full bar, the relic of many prior occupants benefited by a liquor license in addition to Beer, Soft Drinks and freshly brewed Tea. Texas through-and-through in terms of décor, the bustling main room offering a full view of the kitchen while Brian and Natalia installed a full-bar in the Restaurant's right half, big screen televisions are visible from every seat so guests can take in action from their favorite team on benches or from rounded booths. Ready to greet fans new and old it was on individual trays that Meats, Breads and Sides arrived quickly, the housemade Cornbread particularly soft when warm and delicious whether plain or slathered with Butter while Mac & Cheese continues to impress guests of all ages. Next letting Meats take center stage, but not before Hand-cut Fries or Onion Rings, Big B's Brisket follows Texas protocol with little more than smoke and a bit of seasoning while Ribs also shine as a slight pull of the teeth easily liberates supple Muscle from Bone. Not forgetting the Brisket Burger with two Patties, moist Brisket, Cheese and Onion Rings on a fluffy yet supportive Bun, one would be hard-pressed to name a better bargain at $16.99 even before adding a pair of complimentary Sides.

My son brought home some leftovers from work meeting. And oh my!!!! So good! The baked beans oh my! I am pretty sure the best baked beans in my 56 years of life I have ever tasted! They aren't too sweet full of meat and different kinds of beans like chili but no chili spice but peppery with sweetness they are perfectly flavored! Everything is so good! The potato salad I saw green pepper and thought yuck not going to be good I was so wrong! Such a good flavor and not overpowering at all! Raw red onion and full of savory flavor! The pulled pork and the brisket so tasty! The ribs and chicken have a lot of rub but I had to add salt and sauce. The coleslaw is tasty not too sweet! Mac and cheese is yum. It's hard to find a place that you love all the sides and wow I am still in shock! My grandson loved the corn muffins. Definitely will be ordering soon!

Review is for the new location on Sahara/Cimmaron. eaten there 3 times in last 9 days. My honest review after my 3rd visit 1. Brisket - 10 outta 10. Moist and flavorful. A must order for anyone on their first visit. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED 2. Pulled Pork - eh... 5 outta 10. one of the weaker meats on the menu. dry and not all that flavorful. Not in a rush to order it again 3. TriTip - dry and disappointing. maybe i caught an off batch? Would give this meat a 2nd try as i think they can do better. 4. Hot link - 8.5 outta 10. Very very good Ribs - haven't tried yet but only because i'm saving them for my next visit. SIDES 1. Cornbread. 6 outta 10. Not bad just not great. would order again but not a side i'd hype up to a friend. 2. BBQ Beans - 10 outta 10. Perhaps the best tasting item on the menu??? . Big chunks of meat and beans in a delicious sauce. Tons of brown sugar and/or molasses in the dish. Was surprised at the size of the dish as it was a side. GREAT value on this item. I think about these beans often 3. Fries - 8 outta 10. Solid order. Can't go wrong here. Several other sides available. i just haven't tried them all yet. Each meal i've washed down with an Able Baker's Atomic Duck. Think its a 24oz pour for $9!! Even a hardened drinker is gonna catch a solid buzz of just one of these. Don't see many ordering a 2nd as its an 8.5 or 9% ABV beer, Think it's $7 for a 16oz if you order from the bar vs. where you order the food. Good, friendly service from all the employees. Both the restaurant and the bathrooms are being cleaned several times an hour.h Overall i'd give Big B's a solid 9 outta 10. Welcome to the neighborhood. Glad you're here!!!

I've been craving some delicious barbecue so I decided to stop at the Big B's Texas BBQ new location. I used to go to the one on Fort Apache, but they closed down. I came by myself and order two different plates so I can try more sides. The line wasn't too long and the place was busy, but there were still places to sit. When I place my order at the cash register, the cashier didn't seem really friendly. I don't understand why people working in customer service if they cannot even smile at customers and greet them. She seemed like she had a chip on her shoulder. Even when I came back up to the register and asked a different person for to go bags and sauces they did not seem friendly either. Maybe they need to reconsider hiring some new people to work for the register. The front end of a restaurant should make you feel welcome and appreciate your business. When they are not, they kind of set the tone for how the rest of the dinner will be. Which isn't welcoming. I found a picnic style table and sat at the corner closer towards the door. When I was sitting there, I noticed a guy either the manager or owner offering some dessert or ice cream for some kids at the table in front of me. He seemed to be nice and friendly. That's nice if you have have a family and have kids. It's kids friendly over there. As I'm waiting for my order to arrive at the table, it finally showed up and it seemed to be missing some barbecue beef ribs. I tried to look at for my receipt and the cashier gave me the wrong receipt! It's someone else's order on there and what they paid. That was frustrating. I told the guy I was missing part of my order and he was nice about it and said that he will go back and take a look to see what is missing. He brought out a plate of barbecue ribs that I was missing and asked me if I need anything else and was very courteous! He said, If I need anything at all, just let him know. Now he should be working in the front cashier! He was nice, friendly and solved problems. Very courteous guy. He was a short, Hispanic guy. Later on a lady, walked by all the tables and asked if everything was OK. I'm assuming she is the manager. At that time I was chomping on my meal and was good. The moist brisket was delish. Fried okra was crispy and good. Mac n cheese was hot n gooey. Beef ribs was charred just right and tasty. Fries were tasty but was a bit soggy being in that little basket. Sauces were yum. Corn bread was good and you can see corn bits in there n was moist. The jalapeño and cheese sausage were delicious. The corn on the cob was okay. Hopefully, they can improve on a few aspects to give the best customer service going forward. Maybe they can do some retraining or hire some new people. I'm from San Antonio & Houston, Texas. We are known for our southern hospitality. I've been living in Vegas for eight years now. It just sucks that they fail on that part when I came. Especially when it's a new place with new people working I feel like there should be some sort of excitement and wanting to be friendly. The place looks clean. The food was good. 5 stars for appeal and cleanliness 5 stars for food 1 star for cashier service 4 star for table service Overall rating of 3 stars

Mouth watering bbq and sides make Big B's Texas BBQ one of the best in town! I tried the new location which is very spacious plus a full service bar for more seating. Make sure to try the 3 meat plate which comes with 2 sides. The hot links were amazing, the brisket was so tender and the baby back ribs fell right off the bone! Corn on the cob was piping hot and so delicious with the provided butter. Mac and cheese was delicious and complemented everything so well. I can't wait to go back and try more meats and sides!

To anyone saying this is the closest thing to walking into a Texas spot needs stop writing reviews immediately. This place is an absolute joke and I've called the owner out multiple times. This is not Texas BBQ, I've worked at a few places in Texas including Bar-A in Montgomery and Terry Blacks in Lockhart. Let's start with the brisket. Where's the bark? It's missing like Amelia Earhart. It's not properly trimmed which tells me they don't use the trimmings for anything else, this also explains the odd shaped brisket with uneven cook but I digress. I've watched them take out their ribs and place them on an open grill when ordered... what the F are you doing? They should be coming right out a warming oven, cut, and placed on the tray. But even those are a little rubbery. You're not fooling anyone smothering it with a sauce after placing it over an open grill to mask the atrocious flavor. Look at all the pictures and video reviews for either location, they have to smother their meats with sauce for flavor. Backyard BBQ is better than this place. "Oh you're so mean, they're delicious". That's like saying Taco Bell is amazing authentic Mexican food. **Update to the "owners" response: I know you think you "got me good" with your response but it's ok. Let's discuss shall we? I've seen ribs dunked in a glaze prior to being served, the people I was with even asked me if that was normal for Texas BBQ. But that's neither here nor there, what now intrigues me is the fact that you couldn't really respond to any of my other issues. Nope, you stated at one point that it is "standard practice for us"... but claim it's Texas BBQ. No where in Texas do they separate the brisket at the fatty connective tissue unless for one certain reason to which I doubt you know. FYI I've called you out many times over social media... but we both know you're just playing dumb on here.

My wife and I are so glad these guys opened back up. We absolutely love all their food here, it taste so good and is always fresh. This new location is amazing and we are super excited for them. Can't wait to come back next week!

we went here after my mom had a minor procedure and this was what she wanted. She wanted barbecue and so I looked on Yelp and I found one your us. That was really highly rated and it lead us here! This place was amazing. Everything was fresh and cooked to order. And honestly it wasn't that expensive for how much food we had. I think we had leftovers for like two days. It was crazy. Also, the restaurant itself is really cute. And I wish we would've been able to try any of the desserts, but once I go back, I'll definitely try them.

Not bad, but nothing to gush over. I like all the wood decor. Food good. Just has a chain feel to it.

Walked in to a very clean and welcoming environment. The smoked BBQ smell made my stomach rumble with hunger. Staff pointed us to the bar or the register to order. We opted for the register. Ordering was easy. Wish they had options of 1/4lb. We wanted to sample a lot but only 2 of us. You can get 1/4 lb but only on a plate with 2 sides. I'm doing keto so sides were not an option. Didn't care for tipping upon ordering as there was literally no service provided at this point. It's a catch 22 and I hate not tipping but hate tipping in advance even more. No tip given. Food came out warm and fairly fast. 5pm on a Thursday. The best was the Pulled pork. It was flavorful and juicy. 2nd best was the trip-tip. The brisket was very dry and we even had the 50/50 fat. (Can choose lean, 50/50, or full fat when ordering). Everything was smoky flavored. For BBQ I would call it just average. Asked for a to-go box and was pointed to front. Others had boxes brought to them with bags ‍ Mediocre service, average food. Great dinner for 2 for $40 with lots of left overs though. BBQ is TX has always been above average. Tipped 13% while collecting my own to-go box.

When we got back in town we had to try the new location for BBT BBQ. It's the same fantastic bbq, nothing changed. The tri tip is jucy and fall apart tender. We got mac & cheese, green beans, and bbq beans for sides and all very tasty. The beans are the best I've ever had. It's like Crack, you can't stop eating it, get the big container. We were regular customers at the Ft. Apache location, this location is bigger, plenty of room, and a full bar. It's kept clean as usual, no sticky tables, the whole place shines. If you want the good bbq sauce ask, it's behind the counter. I wish them the best at the new location but they'll do great here just because of the food and fantastic customer service.

Wish this review could be for the food, but they didn't even give me the opportunity. This one will be based solely on interaction and their service. I attempted to dine on a non-busy weekday. I'm calling it non-busy because the capacity for the place is probably 75-90 and there were less than 10 heads inside. I make my way in, used their restroom first and then after I sat myself at the bar. No staff or bartender for the first 5 minutes. There were two other parties in the bar area that were already served, but no staff to check in on them? About 10 minutes later, the first staff member appears, makes eye contact with me, but no acknowledgement or asked if I been helped yet. They proceed to one of the parties seated to collect their dirty plates and asks if they need to-go containers for leftovers. The staff member walks past me and nothing once again. I got up and walked out after that. Should I have stayed to give them a third opportunity to serve me when the staff member returns to the party with the containers? Nah. Anyone would have walked out if you had this dining experience. F this place very much.

Big B's Texas BBQ has all the makings of a top-tier spot in Vegas--friendly service, generous portions, and some standout sides. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome with their warm smiles and helpful attitudes. Especially the host/owner/manager that walked around and made sure everybody was ok. They were attentive and eager to make sure I had everything I needed, which set the tone for a good experience. The portion sizes were big--true to the name--and you definitely get your money's worth. The mac & cheese was creamy and flavorful, and the baked beans had that perfect sweet-savory balance that kept me coming back for more. Honestly, those two alone could almost carry the meal. However, as a true BBQ lover, I have to be honest--the meat was a letdown. The cuts were tender enough, but they lacked seasoning and that bold, smoky flavor that makes BBQ unforgettable. Meat is the heart of barbecue, and without flavor, it just falls flat. To add to that, the limited selection of BBQ sauces didn't give much room to dress it up or bring out different flavor profiles. Big B's is a step away from being one of the best BBQ joints in Vegas. The atmosphere, sides, and service are there. But until the meat has some depth of seasoning and a wider variety of sauces, it'll feel like it's missing the soul of great barbecue.

A Sad First (and Last) Visit Visited: Sept 13, 2025 * Dine-in * Check #23 * $62.81 Las Vegas is a tough city for real barbecue. I went in hopeful when this new spot opened around the corner, but what followed was a master class in how to miss every mark that matters. Service set the tone The dining room has a backyard-picnic vibe, which I liked at first. But while taking our order, the two counter staff repeatedly interrupted one another to discuss unrelated tasks. We had to re-state our simple order more than once. It wasn't hostile, just careless and not the welcome you expect when you're ready to hand over sixty dollars. Food arrived fast -- too fast Plates landed within minutes. Speed sounds good until you taste it. Quick turnaround in barbecue usually means pre-held meat, and every bite backed that up. Plate-by-plate breakdown Friend's 2-meat plate: jalapeño-cheese link & smoked turkey Smoked turkey: pale, no smoke ring, dry to the point of needing sauce just to swallow. Jalapeño-cheese link: casing soft and slick instead of tight and snappy. Cheese inside wasn't fully melted, a sign it was reheated rather than smoked through. Potato salad: mustard so heavy it drowned every other flavor. BBQ beans: mostly ketchup-style sauce with a token scoop of beans. My 3-meat plate: lean brisket, tri-tip, beef ribs Brisket & tri-tip: visually and flavor-wise indistinguishable. No bark, no dry-rub character, no seasoning beyond plain beef. Beef ribs: the only redeeming item, saved only by natural fat content, not by pitmaster skill. Mac & cheese: gritty and broken, more like weeknight stovetop than smoked-pit comfort. Fried okra: acceptable but unseasoned. Sauces & smoke Three squeeze bottles--one sweet red, one honey-mustard lookalike, one dark brown--offered no regional identity. No wood pile, no clean smoke aroma, nothing to signal Texas craft. The clientele pattern The dining room skewed older and favored extremely mild flavors. It reminded me of Lucille's Smokehouse, another chain that leans heavily toward an older palate and away from bold seasoning. This isn't an accident; it's a theme. If you like true pit barbecue with smoke, spice, and personality, you'll notice the same disconnect here. The larger problem Barbecue is supposed to be art: time, fire, and seasoning. What we tasted was rushed and flavorless. Even the Big Red soda, a nostalgic surprise, ended up being the meal's highlight. If your goal is simply to feed relatives who like mild, underspiced food, this place will do. But if you actually love barbecue, you'll do better in your own backyard or at a serious pit that costs the same and respects the craft. --- Bottom line: Friendly enough staff and tidy space can't offset meats that lack smoke, seasoning, and care. At $62.81 for two plates, this was not a one-off bad cook--just a system built for speed, not flavor. A one-time visit and a caution to anyone seeking real barbecue.

Texas Big B's in Las Vegas honestly feels like one of those places where everyone is just happy you showed up. The food tastes like it was made by someone who actually cares--simple, flavorful, and really comforting. The portions are big enough that I ended up taking leftovers home and still thinking about the meal hours later. The staff was genuinely kind and checked in just the right amount without hovering. Overall, it's the kind of spot that makes you want to come back with friends and put them on to something good.

Excellent bbq. Best value. Got the 3 sliders with brisket, tri tip, and pulled pork with mac n cheese and fries. The mac was delicious. Fries were great. Brisket and pork were great. Tri tip was dry so just ok. Their bbq sauces were yummy. The price is very affordable for the amount of food you get. Best bbq deal in Vegas. The service was and quick and easy. The place is big and spacious. The booths can hold 10 people. The one thing I didn't like was they only played country music.

Having lived in Austin TX for 17 years before moving to Las Vegas 10 years ago, I have sorely missed good BBQ. I've pretty much tried all the options and haven't really satisfied my Texas BBQ cravings......... until now!! Big B's Texas BBQ hits all the right spots with the food, atmosphere, pricing and friendliness of service. I literally live a 1 minute drive from this 2nd location of theirs and I couldn't be happier. Got to meet the owners and they are awesome people that obviously put a lot of love into the business and the food. I highly recommend this new restaurant and will be a very regular visitor myself!!

To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. My husband and I are regulars at the st rose location and we love that one. This location seems to not have their footing yet. The inside is great. Beautiful bar area, great atmosphere and decor is an awesome vibe. I wish I could say the same about the food. The service was non existent. I felt like a bother if I asked anything at all. I tried to order 2 meat meal with the jalapeño sausage but they were out. I almost left because that's what I was coming here for but I decided to give them a try anyways. I ordered the moist brisket and smoked turkey with Mac n cheese and corn on the cob. To start the "moist brisket" was anything but moist. It was ice cold and had been sitting out. It was hard as a rock. The turkey was cold as well but edible. Corn on the cob was room temperature and I was unable to bite it. The Mac n cheese was great. We both ordered tea and the tea had no flavor, seemed watered down. My husband got the wings, which he loved, as well as brisket. His brisket didn't look like it was sitting out all day and he said his was moist. My conclusion is, if you are looking for good bbq go to the st rose location. I will not be coming back here. So disappointing since they are closer to my home.

Food quality has gone in the toilet here. Ordered fatty brisket so it would be extra tender and juicy. Received dried out tree bark. Chicken was tough and over reheated. Pork on pork belly burger was not just burnt but charred black. For $50 lunch quality was just beyond lacking. Have been here several times before and it has never been this bad.

We enjoyed our visit to Big Bs Texas BBQ! The service was very good and the delivery of the food was top-notch. You can tell that they take great pride in the dishes that they prepare - the ribs and the brisket were well seasoned. The ribs had a dry rub and there were extra barbecue sauces on the table for you to use as you desire. There was a gentleman, I'm assuming he was either the owner or the manager, but he was very present with the patrons and appreciative of their dining at his restaurant.

After two years from North Texas I finally found a good place to go for real food. The service was great and the brisket and hot links were delicious. All done with real mesquite wood shipped from Texas. Now if they would get fried pickles, I could be in heaven.
