The only place I know of where you can buy 10pounds of delicious BBQ delivered for under $30. The only thing I did not like from Biggs was the chocolate covered bacon. Several times my wife and I ordered and had left overs for the following day. The twice baked potato salad is incredible!
Biggs serves some pretty darn good barbecue. Their selection is good, the price is reasonable. The wait staff is hit and miss - some days you get a nice, competent, quick waiter; other days you get a disenchanted, "I-would-rather-be-at-home," slow waiter.Overall, you can't go wrong with Biggs.
My boyfriend and I go to Bigg's regularly because I'm a huge brisket fan. I love their sandwiches, the fries are "interesting" (and they just give them out for free, which is always awesome) and I especially love their baked apples as well. The only qualm I've ever had with this particular establishment is the service. Once they actually acknowledge us, everything is great, but it usually takes about 10 or 15 minutues for our waiter to get to our table to just take our drink order.
The decor is very unique, sports and rock. The portions are huge for the price, it's like getting 2 meals. Service is always good, and the sweet potato fries are the best!
I don't expect to receive my brisket fresh from the smoker but at least make an attempt to try and fool me by reheating it correctly(just add a little water please it prevents that telltale reheated meat taste that veterans of bbq know and despise). My yardbird was tough my brisket probably tasted good at some point, however this was way before it reached my plate. My sides were unremarkable. Overall, I was left just wanting to try some real Q!
I felt the BBQ pulled pork was the best I've had in town. Plus, Bigg's has discount coupons in many of the common sources, so it can be a bargain if you find the right deal.
I'm not a huge BBQ fan, but this place is fantastic! Better than Vermont Street BBQ. Love the smoked mac and cheese, and a great place to watch a football game. The location is bad (you can barely tell that the place is there from the street), but that doesn't affect the food or the excellent service. Two thumbs up!
This restaurant is going downhill fast! I've eaten here four times and it's gone from good to horrible in this time. The last time, the host was rude and acted like it was a big problem to seat us. Then the waitress messed up all three of my sides, then brought out them out cold with my warm potato salad being lukewarm (at best) with an icy middle-straight out of the microwave, but obivously not long enough! My beef brisket was cold, tough, stringy and dry. It is twice now that the brisket has been that way. Considering that it cost $10 for my meal, I won't be going back again. And not too surprising that there were only about 10 people in the whole restaurant besides us during the dinner rush. I can't see them staying in business much longer if they keep this up!
Great tv's but just not a place to watch sports, bartenders, managment, servers don't know what they are doing. BUT the kitchen does! Started getting takeout. Best BBQ in Lawrence.
Lawrence needs a place that takes care of sports fans!
Drunkagain maybe you were drunk......the food @ Bigg's is by far the best BBQ in Lawrence for the taste and $
Maybe you didn't try the right stuff, pork and brisket are awesome...St. Louis ribs are perfect....beans blow the other Lawrence BBQ joints away! O-rings are huge! Smoked corbread is also awesome.
Good service. That is all I can say. For BBQ I'm sorry that I believe that a good place to eat is about the food not a good place to watch sports. For being so close to KC it is sad that their BBQ is this quality. I've eaten there three times, because I understand BBQ can vary in quality terms based on many things, but Bigg's would be a good bar and grill, but their bbq is not good. Which is suprising considering they have ties to JB Stouts and that is one of my favorite places in Lawrence.
sorry for low ratings but there are a lot of nice places in this greate town but when it comes to bbq nice places means zero to me so i belive the best bbq in lawrence is in your own back yard

I don't know who sells BBQ at Allen Fieldhouse but they are by far the best in town. Sauce too!

Bland food and bland sauce ( 3 types!)
While Quicks isn't awesome, it beats down Biggs in a big way.
The sandwich's are pretty expensive, and you have to pay extra for french fries -- by default they come with potato chips.
Oklahoma Joe's needs to get to Lawrence Quick!

It's about time we got a good BBQ place to sit down and watch some good sports at the same time! This place will get our business.
