    Brisket, Burnt Ends, Mac and cheese, and a roll.
    Kyran D.

    Juicy brisket and the best beans I've ever had, rheir pickled veggies and fluffy rolls are also scrumptious.

    Big bbq sloppy Joe, smoked potato soup with scallions, shredded cheese and bacon

    Our first time here and won't be our last! I recommend the beef kebab for only $8, although I saw their sign on the way out that the beef kebab lunch special was $4... The big bbq brisket sloppy Joe was really good and I loved their house-made pickles. I tried the baked potato soup, and it came with an option of free bacon, scallions, and shredded cheese, but there was nowhere in the small soup bowl to put those extras. Perhaps a larger bowl should be provided on the side. I didn't catch the waitress's name, but she was very attentive. It was nice that the owner, Bill, came over to see how we were doing and to ask about our dining experience. I loved the personal touch.

    Sample Platter

    This BBQ place is the best BBQ in town! We got the sample platter with Ribs, Brisket, Burnt Ends, Coleslaw and Onion Rings. They gave a a heavy pour of my Chardonnay. The owner Bill visited our table and was so warm and welcoming. They have large tables that seat 6-8. The restaurant has an extensive menu including banana pudding. We will definitely come back.

    Great food

    I've never ordered carry out from Big 8 Barbecue but we had guests for the weekend so we decided to order out some brisket, pulled pork and baked beans with all the sauces. The price was very good and They had it ready, hot and on time for pickup. Everything was great and my guests loved it. I highly recommend ordering out or eating in and either way you can't beat big eight barbecue.

    Brisket Garlic Mac Coleslaw
    Denise H.

    It's been 3 years since my last visit, but still loving this brisket. It's so tender and juicy. The sides were perfect. Repeated the garlic Mac and cheese and coleslaw sides. They both were a 10. Sadly they are out of the pickled onions. If you're looking for bbq look no farther. It's worth my hour drive to eat here!!

    The burnt ends and brisket were dry, and chewy like raw hide. The garlic Mac and cheese was oily than it was flavorful.

    Today our search for good barbecue has finally ended. We found Beaus BBQ after reading an article…read moreabout them. Intrigued by the menu and especially blue corn bread. We found them at FtMyers Brewery. We had the special of the day Short Ribs . (Wow!!! Perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection, topped with Chimichurri. The meat fell off the bone. Sides were Texas style potato salad ( perfectly seasoned with dill..) and baked beans. Tyler found us to see how we liked it. We chatted and shared how the food truck began and how hard he has worked to build his business. He returned again to give us a sample of the brisket burnt ends. Melt in your mouth!! We will keep following Beau's. If you love barbeque and love supporting hard working local business...keep your eyes open for this gem!!

We had 70+ friends for…read morethe big celebration and served pulled Pork & Brisket with Mac Cheese, slaw, & Potato salad. Many, many of our guests said it was the best brisket they had ever had and all the pulled pork was eaten! Tyler was on-time and set up in 30 minutes for a great dinner event. Everyone said it was the best party they had been to in years (thanks to the wonderful BBQ food). Very cool to have the food truck right in the driveway and tables and chairs set up in our 3-car garage for easy access to the food! Tom M.

    *** Reviewing for the Cape Coral location ***…read more I love to support small businesses and I'm glad I stumbled upon this place. I ordered a brisket, ribs, smoked wings with mac n' cheese and baked beans. Brisket - Fantastic. It's a good amount of fat on the meat where it's juicy and not dry. Super flavorful, didn't need any sauce and tender. By far my Favorite. Ribs - Great. It has good texture and flavor and I enjoyed it. Smoked wings - Smoked and cooked to perfection. The sauce they toss it in is what made it unique too. Mac n' cheese and baked beans were good too! If I recall, I believe the beans had brisket pieces in it too. Service was great. The cashier and owner himself were Super friendly and nice. Whenever I'm in the mood for barbeque, I would genuinely come back to support this place. I rather here than go support a terrible chain bbq place. This hidden gem is located in an apartment building near downtown Cape Coral. Free street parking but also free public parking next to the Dollar Tree located across the street.

    Went to the Cape Coral location today and ordered Turkey, Sausage, and Smoked Wings. The turkey…read morewas good and had nice smoke but it was a little dry. The Sausage was excellent. The Smoked Wings were big and cooked perfectly and were still very moist, but they lacked the smoke that I was looking forward to. We also had the coleslaw and potato salad which were both good. Th coleslaw was not too saucy like some places make it and it was perfect for us. Unfortunately for a price of $27.99 the two meat plate was a little small. If the wings had more smoke I would have given it four stars. We will give it another try and if the wings are smoked better I will raise my rating.

    Smoke'n Pit Bar-B-Que…read more Atmosphere and Service: We stopped by around 5:00 p.m. on a Friday afternoon. The interior is not fancy, but it is thoughtfully laid out and has a classic barbecue feel. Our waitress was quick to bring drinks and take our order, which made the visit start smoothly. The menu offers a wide variety of barbecue meats, along with fish and simpler options like hamburgers and hot dogs. Overall, there is something to suit a broad range of tastes. What We Ordered: * 3 Baby Back Rib Dinners with Baked Potato, Corn, Coleslaw & Garlic Bread * Fish & Shrimp Combo with Baked Potato, Corn & Applesauce * Fish & Shrimp Combo with Sweet Potato, Corn, Coleslaw & Garlic Bead Food Quality: The baby back ribs were decent, but they seemed a little dry. Adding barbecue sauce helped quite a bit and improved the flavor. I was very disappointed with the fried shrimp included in the fish combo dinner. After removing the breading, I found that there was barely any shrimp inside. The baked potato was average in size and came with only a packet of sour cream and a few butter packets, so it felt fairly basic. The corn on the cob was half a portion but was okay. The coleslaw had a slight bite to it, but it was also only average. Overall, nothing really stood out or delivered a strong flavor. I must give the Smoke'n Pit Bar-B-Que a 3 out of 5 stars.

Memory of juicy baby back ribs with bean, okra, cole slaw and a pitcher of beer run through my mind! I'm alone, so I just ordered a BBQ Rib Snack for lunch, 3 pieces of pork ribs with bean, cole slaw and toast! Today, the smoked ribs is OK but I smothered a lot sweet BBQ sauce to get rid of dryness! They have best BBQ Bean in town and the cole slaw is fresh and fine. Next time, I will stay with the Baby Back ribs! This is a local hangout, and décor could use a little upgrade! The service is fast, friendly and professional. Price is very reasonable!
