Big O's Texas BBQ — Restaurant in Rochester

I ordered from here a couple days ago. I have only eaten here a few times, and the food is mostly good. This last time however, I was really disappointed. The brisket seemed like the leftover scraps. I didn't even get one full slice. And the chicken was very over done and dry. The outer parts of it was like rubber. Both had kind of a burnt taste to them which is the reason i think they were the leftovers. Not to mention, I don't even know if I was charged for the cornbread because I didn't get a receipt. But that was missing from my order. Speaking of being charged, I placed the order over the phone and was told a different price for the 3 meat plate, compared to their own website. If I wasn't paying attention, I would've gotten charged more for that as well. This is the first time I was really disappointed. The pulled pork and beans were really good however.

Where to begin... i will start by saying Otis, the owner definitely has Texas hospitality and an ease about him let's you know he would be a good friend. The staff was also on point, showing ambition and was very knowledgeable about the menu.

The meat is well seasoned with a good amount of smoke flavor. First time here, will not...

Just moved back to WI from TN and I've been desperately searching for good smoky bbq...and now I found my spot!!!! Had the ribs, pulled pork, sausage, Mac and cheese, coleslaw, Texas beans, peach cobbler, and finally....the loaded potato with pulled pork. Lordddddddd not one of them disappointed. Not one!! The smoke on the meats and the sides is amazing! I love my bbq with smoke and it did not disappoint and the just the overall taste of the food was sooo good! It definitely hit my bbq craving. Finished with the peach cobbler...I could in fact eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so make sure to order a lot 😋. I'm incredibly happy I came across big o's....I'm officially addicted. Oh and the staff...some of the kindest people I've ever come across. Friendly and definitely want to make sure you are...
