Big Daddy's BBQ & Banquet Hall

Greatest Barbecue in the world. I have never had ribs as good as these. Best barbecue in Alaska by a mile. The ribs had a crispy crust and a juicy interior with delicious sauce. Texas toast was a hit too. Brownie sundae is big enough to split and only $10. Food comes out fast. Service was great, everyone was really nice. This is the only restaurant that I go to on a regular basis because of how great it is. Tuesday is rib night, I’ll see you there.

PRO TIP! The pig out platter can serve 2 people or more. We both got this platter and could not even eat half of it. Save money and split it! Our eyes were larger than our brains at the time. We even had the burnt ends as an appetizer and still overestimated our stomach sizes. However this place is GOOD. I’m from the south and this place is better than some southern BBQ restaurants. The sauces are good, the sides are good and the meats are better. My favorites were the brisket and pulled pork. We tried our best to finish it all but had to take 70% of it with us. Definitely recommend to any big meat lovers out there who want a taste of the south!

Surprisingly quick service. Great food. REAL Southern Sweet Tea. Good prices. Authentic tasting BBQ. I had Texas Chresesteak & collard greens. Each was better than the other. I will return here.

10 outta 10 bbq joint. Homemade sides and delicious choice of meats. Everything we ordered was a win! Guy Ferrari has also visited this place. Don't miss out on your fairbanks trip and give them a try! They also support the military and give a military discounts for those who served/serve.

The brisket is some of the best I've had, but not the best. However, bbq in Alaska can't be choosey. I once heard someone say that the sides make the bbq joint and if that is the case then this one is top notch. Best baked beans I've ever had. Second best collards I've ever had. Service was great. Brisket came out cold and we casually mentioned it and she jumped into action and replaced it with some large hot pieces. So much food that I took half of it with me.

I had the burnt tips, pulled pork sandwich, okra and coleslaw. It was all very good, great flavor and the meat wasn't dried out. Since the special of the day was ribs, that is what I wanted but, they weren't available while I was there! Oh well, I imagine they would have been great too. I even bought a souvenir t-shirt and 3 bottles of their Honey BBQ Rub. Can't wait to try the rub on my ribs when I get home!

A great Fairbanks experience! We came to town for a day before heading on a touristy tour of this amazing state! We knew we didn't have a place for leftovers, so tried splitting the KC Plate. Still more than enough food for the two of us! We still ended up bringing home the coleslaw since it was just too much to finish. Made a fun breakfast. ;-) Brisket was excellent! Perfectly done, plenty of meat on the plate, and an assortment of BBQ sauces (mostly sweet, but tasty) to try. Service was good! We were served promptly (early dinner, so few customers when we arrived), our drinks kept full, and asked how we were doing several times. Great experience! Little secret for those staying in a resort / tour hotel - take the shuttle into town, grab this less expensive, and far better dinner, then head back to rest up for your journey!

We are visiting from Tampa and have had BBQ all over America so when we saw that Guy Fieri said this place is on point we decided to check it out! He was right! Our favorite was the brisket, sausage, pulled pork and ribs! Even the baked beans were done right. The chicken was a little dry but the turkey was surprisingly good too. The service was awesome! Very attentive, sweet and quick service! Loved the bar area too. Overall it was a good place to stop by and hang out before we went back home.
