What Joe Smith likes about Big Bob Gibson's -b-que:
We love big Bob Gibson and Chris Lilly. The food was pretty good, although the slaw I just do not understand. I will say that if you look at the pictures posted I don't believe that Chris Lilly and the family would be happy about the cleanliness of this restaurant. Honestly, I just expect more out of such a high caliber Family and pit masters. View all feedback.

My first experience with Big Bob's was a couple years ago and I just did not like it.
What a HUGE disappointment! I've been waiting for 10 years to try them out and I guess I should have done it 10 years ago! Here is my meal review: Smoked
Came to Huntsville AL for business and our colleagues who live locally invited us to try what they stated was a very famous, awarding winning BBQ place.
