In the world of Smokehouse Barbecue, Big T’s BBQ stands tall as Alberta’s reigning champion. With five locations across Calgary and Airdrie—and a sixth opening in 2025—Big T’s isn’t just a barbecue restaurant, it’s a province-wide institution of smoky, saucy, slow-cooked goodness.
What Sets Big T’s BBQ Apart?
Authentic Southern Smokin’
Every cut of meat at Big T’s is smoked in-house using our Southern Pride Smoker. From Certified Angus Brisket marinated for 48 hours to hand-pulled pork and brined smoked turkey, our Smokehouse Menu is a love letter to barbecue done right.
The Smokehouse Menu to Beat
- **Brisket –** Marinated 24–48 hours, smoked 8–12 hours
- **Pulled Pork –** Smoked up to 16 hours and tossed in signature sauce
- **Ribs –** Rubbed with our house spice blend and smoked to perfection
- **Chicken & Turkey –** Basted, brined, and slow-cooked for bold, juicy flavour
When we say all about the meat, we mean it. Our pitmasters don’t rush greatness—and you can taste it in every bite.
Where Family Feeds Family
At Big T’s, barbecue is more than a meal—it’s a moment. We believe in family-style service, hearty portions, and treating every guest like a regular. Whether you’re visiting our McMahon location near the stadium, enjoying the buzz at the Farmers Market, or ordering catering for your next big event, you’re always home at Big T’s.
More Than Just a Barbecue Restaurant
We bring the heat beyond our dining rooms:

- **Sauces and Merch** so you can bring Big T’s home
