We visited Big T's with friends last summer, and were wowed by the food and smokey meat goodness. We vowed to bring my husband's parents the next time we came and order the Big T's platter so we could try everything. We arrived to an empty restaurant...we thought they were not open. After seating ourselves and ordering, the Big T's platter came out, along with our side of hush puppies. We were surprised to see a large mound of fries with not a lot of meat on the platter. The ribs that were supposed to be included on the platter came out about 10 minutes later, very carefully portioned to be 4 little skinny ribs for 4 people. The brisket and pulled pork portions were hardly enough for 4 people to try a bite, and the brisket was all fat with no beef. The sausage was burnt to the point of being crunchy, with little flavor left besides char. The meat portions were all on the small side. If you are looking at their website, ignore the photo of the platter--ours was half a platter of fries then a half of the remainder were the sides of beans & slaw etc. We were really disappointed...if we had not been there before and had such a good meal previously, we would not have been back. Not sure if they have changed a chef or they are resting on their "You Gotta Eat Here" endorsement (which there was a large sign in front of the restaurant referring to) but we rather doubt we will be back, as I do a better kick-ass smoked barbeque than what they are doing now.
