    Slider plate
    Char B.

    Legit bbq! Just look at the cooker out back! This little place is off the beaten track but worth seeking out. We had a fun time trying a good mix off the menu as my husband got the 3 meat platter and I tried the 3 slider dish. My absolute favorite was the jalapeño jelly and brie slider. Its fun trying something not offered anywhere else. My only disappointment was they don't do the sweet potato salad anymore and I was looking forward to it. We def will be back. Have to try their banana pudding next time :)

    Great atmosphere, music, very clean, and the best BBQ in Bellingham proper. Healthy portions, I returned to grab more sauce next day. Out of ribs yesterday, I am back for a portion for me, and a bottle of the spicy sauce. Hospitality beyond norms and the crowd. Eclectic, young an old, reasonable tap prices. Honestly, what more can you ask for? A top recommendation from George!

    I had the chance to try their food truck on a Friday evening at Stemma. Given that I've spent a disproportionate time in the Gulf Coast region, I was initially hesitant to venture into the world of PNW BBQ, but boy, am I glad I did! What initially drew me to this food cart as a frugal foodie was the excellent price point. $13 for x3 sliders of BBQ meat and varied toppings is hard to beat in this area. I was impressed with each of the slider flavors and thought that they were memorable in their own way, which I will wax on about below. The brisket blue came with some yummy blue cheese and the brisket was cooked wonderfully - I can honestly say I have never really thought of mixing blue cheese in with brisket like that, but they managed to pull it off. The "rissa" option was also fun and fresh, mixing pulled pork, brie, and jalapeno jelly. Once again, a unique cheese theme adored by turophiles everywhere such as myself! This slider, coupled with tasty jalapeno zing, was another winner. Lastly was the more classic pulled pork with coleslaw, which really hit the spot. Not to be forgotten is the bread, a subtle potato rosemary bun that elevated the sliders beyond your normal plain white bread slider. I look forward to returning whenever I need my local BBQ fix in town!

    recently visited Big Stick BBQ for the first time, and I was thoroughly impressed! The food was absolutely delicious, with perfectly smoked meats and flavorful sauces that left me wanting more. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The welcoming atmosphere added to the overall experience. I highly recommend Big Stick BBQ to anyone looking for great barbecue and exceptional service!

    I had a hankerin' for some "'Q" and thought I would check out Big Stick. I was really ready to like it. Unfortunately, my experience did not turn out as I had hoped. The space was comfortable, clean and made you feel like eating BBQ. Service was prompt and cheerful. Nice. I ordered the one-person Combo Plate. When it arrived, I was visually very pleased. The brisket looked great (nice smoke ring, bark, etc). Pulled pork was looked good, nice sides, etc. As I progressed through the stages of sampling each item I slowly, but consistently met with mildly disappointing foods. Everything was "slightly off". I couldn't taste the smoke, the ribs looked great but tasted like they were baked. Strange, I don't understand how that could be... they looked great. Dunno. Similar stories about the beans and Cole slaw. I like the restaurant ambience and would like to be fan of their food. I'll pass this occasion off as a combination of a "bad day" and my personal preferences. I'll wait awhile and try

    mac tasted like a weird canola oil or crisco, and beans were still hard.... and what citrus is in the coleslaw?

    food was mid, pork was good tho it was definitely apart.. bbq sauce was good. The roll, i didn't get the aromatic leafs they put in was kinda throwing the flavor off. By the way, the mac n cheese seriously looks reheated..

    Combo for 4

    Ordered the combo for 4 and the burnt ends. Everything is really good plus they play awesome blues/jazz music, and the folks are super friendly. The brisket in particular is really good - tender yet has good consistency. The BBQ sauce is great. The ribs are also really good. Pulled pork is so so but maybe I don't really like pulled pork. Corn bread can be substituted in combo meal and it was worth the wait. Fresh out of oven amazing. Cole slaw and beans also spot on. The cole slaw has a citrus y flavor which is great. Would come back on a road trip. Service was super quick and friendly.

    The food was so delicious and brisket was so soft and easy to pull apart. The service was also amazing everyone here is so friendly. Ambiance was relaxing and a nice small place in Bellingham.

    Nice clean place, friendly staff, pulled pork sandwiches were bland and mushy, sauce didn't help it any. Too bad.
