  • I went here with a foodie from Texas. I actually flew out for a weekend just to get BBQ with him. Therefore, we were complete snobs at Big T's and I am going to share this snobbery with you. BBQ places in Texas all have their own vibe and style. No two places are the same, and they are definitely not like a Chili's. Lots of them are cafeterias that have spunk, there are dozens of microbrews in ice buckets just waiting to be consumed, augh, dining at one of these places is an EXPERIENCE. Walk up, order, get your number, wait up to 10 mins, help yourself to chips, wait in anticipation, and gloriousness awaits. Better yet, grab a tray, order your food and sides cafeteria style, and sit on a bench in the 90f heat at 9pm. Big T's, however, is just like any other banal, boring, uninspired experience in Calgary. Walk in. Wait for one person to tell you where to sit. Sit in restaurant with contrived interior style. Wait for another person to come. Order. Wait 15-20 mins for mediocrity. We were fine with this crap until my friend asked the server for a the moist cut of the brisket. In Texas, the response is always along the lines of "certahinly, bayebeedahl!!". In Calgary, it tends to be long the line of: "we cannot do that." We scoff, she continues: "we pre-cut the brisket, mix it, and put it in bags". Yes. She said that. Almost proudly. We didn't have to ask her to tell us that they only smoke once a week instead of nightly. Knowing BBQ, the food was average to below average. If you never had BBQ, you will probably think it is pretty good. It falls really short from what real BBQ should be. Calgary has incredible access to good beef and pork and there is no excuse for it being this half assed. Pre-cut and put in bags. Wow.
