A great place for the hubs and I to wind down with a chilled beer in hand. We are so excited to be back at Big D’s again. This place feels like home sweet home and the food definitely hit the spot. The menu has slimmed down but I prefer it this way, straight to point and guides you to Big D’s favorites. Hubs had the brisket and I ordered a cheese steak brisket. Yum! Plates come with 2 hefty sides of your choice. I chose max n cheese & potato salad which was more than enough to share. We left happy and stuffed! Service was hands down the best part. Indeed, a rare gem in Mansfield. Planning to return with our friends and family for more awesome BBQ, beer and next time board games. Thanks y’all!

The service was good. It looked like the owner/manager was putting in a lot of work. I saw him mopping the floors and doing other stuff and he still made sure to come by our table to make sure we were taken care of. The building is a nice indoor/outdoor establishment that is nice to sit in and feel like you are on a patio. The food needs work. The burnt ends were doused in pepper, tough to chew and an item I wished I didn’t order in retrospect. The ribs were chewy as well. The brisket was ok but a bit on the bland side. The highlight of the meal was the potato salad. It had a creamy and sweet taste with very good texture. I give this place 3 stars because I think they have the potential to be very good and I will be going there again to see if I just stopped by on an off day. If it wasn’t an off day, I still think with more attention to the process they could do very well. I am rooting for this place because I think they are on the verge of being a very good BBQ establishment.

7/22/22: Stopped here with a friend, who lives in Mansfield. From the outside, it looks pretty ordinary. Once inside, the smell of BBQ hits you, and you’re transported to a time when great service and great food come together! I had a two meat plate, with pulled pork, brisket (which was sliced in front of me), burnt ends, jalapeño stuffed with brisket then wrapped in bacon (firecracker), fried okra and green beans. The gentleman and his wife take great pride in their food, and make you feel like your family. They checked on us a couple of times to make sure everything was ok. The food was awesome, and they also have a spicy BBQ sauce which has a nice kick! The brisket didn’t need any sauce, the pulled pork was great, and the burnt ends were very good. I’d definitely stop by again!

I ordered the brisket baked potato. It came with cheese, bacon, and sour cream. My husband ordered the burnt ends and sausage, with mac n cheese and potato salad. We both thought it was just okay, we’ve had better. If you like hot stuff try their spicy bbq, that was really good!

We tried two different three meat plates. Our favorite was the burnt ends. The chicken was juicy and everything was tasty. We tried brisket, sausage, pulled pork, chicken, ribs and burnt ends. Sausage Mac and cheese was our favorite side with the Big D pinto beans coming in a close second.

First time trying this place. The potatoes were extremely tough on the outside, stale, and barely even warm. The brisket on top was good, it had a nice flavor, great texture and a pretty good amount. Skimmed on the toppings (sour cream and cheese). I couldn’t even get much of the potato out of the skin. The bbq sauce had a really strong flavor of vinegar and was pretty thin. Things like that are personal taste(not mine). I could not eat the potato. The brisket was the only thing that was good. So maybe just the brisket/meats are worth going for. I’m not sure about anything else as that is all we tried.

Great food. Great service. Local restaurants have been slow since Covid, and this one took a hit too. However, their BBQ is really good! Try their burnt ends! If Gary is there, he’ll too make sure you’re taken care of. #EatLocal

Great experience eating at Big D BBQ this evening. We were visiting from out of town and decided to give it a try.

Update(3.25.19): prices on meets went up, many now are “market price.” Today’s brisket was dry (over smoked or heat lamp) turkey still tastes good. Potato was a little undercooked. Still good beer selection.
