Best BBQ Restaurant in Page

Big John’s Texas BBQ is a casual restaurant serving up mouth-watering smoked meats and homemade Texas BBQ sides. Previously this venue was a gas station, Big John’s has kept the original structure and has turned it into an indoor/outdoor restaurant. Three large meat smokers are the first thing that catches your eye… and nose with the smell of slow-cooked smoked meat rolling off these bad boys. Inside has a retro vibe with red and white checkered table cloths and rustic car signs.

Outside you will find an old fashion truck with Big John’s Texas BBQ written on the side. Its eclectic design is warm, fun, and welcoming. Our servers were friendly, laid back, attentive, and quick. They provided great service during our meal. Seating is a bit limited inside but there are many picnic tables outside under the covered patio.

Big John’s Texas BBQ Menu

The menu at Big John’s Texas BBQ is simple, easy to read, and includes pictures for every single dish. Big John’s serves up all of the classic BBQ dishes; pulled pork sandwiches, rack of ribs, and slow-cooked brisket. All meats are smoked and slowly cooked in their smokers that are right outside the front door. The wood smokers is a great selling point because you know you are getting good quality slow-cooked meats.

BBQ restaurants are usually on the pricey end because of how meat-forward the cuisine is and the time and work that goes into creating a juicy piece of meat. Here at Big John’s Texas BBQ, you will not have to break out the checkbook for your meal. You can be looking to spend about $15 per person for just food, a great price for a delicious BBQ meal.

What I Ordered

Big John’s Texas BBQ Sampler – $19.75

Chopped Beef Brisket

The chopped beef brisket is one of my favorite bites of the sampler. It is juicy, tender, and full of flavor. You will not need to add any BBQ sauce to this moist and succulent meat.

Pulled Pork

Home smoked pulled pork is a classic and Big John’s does it justice. The pulled pork is delicious with a squirt of housemade BBQ sauce and topped with coleslaw.

Spicy Link Sausage

A full smoked link sausage adds the perfect spice to this array of Texas BBQ. The sausage is tender, smokey, and not greasy at all.

2 Baby Back Pork Ribs

The best bite! These slow-cooked baby back ribs are full of flavor and fall right off the bone. Drizzle a little of the original BBQ sauce on it and go to town. I highly suggest getting at least a half rack of these.

Cowboy Beans

Cowboy beans are pinto beans that are cooked with ground beef and a sauce similar to BBQ sauce. Growing up in Colorado, I have had my fair share of Cowboy beans. Big John’s cowboy beans were good but not one of my favorites, I found them lacking in flavor.

Coleslaw

I absolutely loved the coleslaw. It added freshness to the plate. Big John’s does their coleslaw right by using small chopped cabbage, crunch shredded carrot, a light cream dressing, and celery seed.

*The Texas BBQ Sampler can easily feed two people. We shared this platter and were happily content after our meal.
