Wouldn't return or recommend. Painfully below average. Tough brisket, dry but greasy. Chicken not any better than a Walmart rotisserie chicken. Banana pudding was old-one bite was enough. (I make my own from scratch so I know what texture and colour fresh product is supposed to be.) Portions were stingy for the elevated prices. BBQ sauce too tangy for me but I prefer a sweet/smoky flavour over watery vinegar.
Love this place. Best bbq in GA if you ask me. I've been to many bbq places and none top this. (Turkey Ribs pictured) (Smoked Chicken Wings Spicy BBQ sauce) (Homemade Sausage Pork Brisket blend) ?
I have eaten at many of the BBQ places in the area. First time at Big Shanty. I was pleased. Super friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Great sauce. The meats were good, not too dry, had bark and had some smoke flavor, but I prefer a a flavor when you just "know" it was smoked for hours. Rating: 4.5.
Amazing ribs, brisket and pulled pork. We got everything and ate for days from the leftovers. Worth the trip!
If ZERO was a number, that is what I would give. The food you just sold me is inedible and not even worthy to be fed to my dogs. I was excited to eat this and when I opened the container when my family got home, I immediately drove back and arrived at 7:03 PM, 3 minutes after they closed, knocked on the door, saw someone inside who saw me and then they walked away. How can you even sell something this horrible and CHARGE almost $20 for this crap? I can't even call it dog food since I won't feed it to mine because its too fatty and I don't want them to get sick. This is no platter and I will be telling everyone I know to avoid this place. The customer service is beyond poor since you actually felt comfortable selling this to me and then only 2 pieces and scant amount of sides and then don't even open the door 3 minutes after you close? NEVER again and anyone reading this, take heed.
I visited BSSH today for the first time. It's not a bad bbq place. I ordered two pulled pork sandwiches, they came with a bag of chips. I ordered two drinks, a side of slaw and potato salad. This cost $32 lol. The slaw is bland. The potato salad it pretty good and the pulled pork was good. The best thing I tried was their house made hot sauce. It wasn't hot but had a really good flavor.
Always great. Best bbq restaurant around. And best sauce ever.Next visit great again. Can't beat the food and service.
Very disappointed after all the hype of being one of Atlanta's best BBQ joints. Pork was VERY spicy without sauce which was unimpressive to me.Brunswick stew was kinda soupy. At least the baked beans were edible.
A very very good BBQ joint with true smoked meats and excellent sides. I live in Smyrna but will be going here for my BBQ.
Very nice staff.A small place and seemed most people ordered to go.The BBQ was very good, as well as some sides. The Mac and Cheese was simple and not tasty.
