⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is the kind of barbecue a person dreams about finding in the Denver metro and in Colorado.

There's a lot of pretenders here who THINK they KNOW BBQ, but they don't.

Well let me tell you something...the people working at Big Belly Brothers BBQ in Aurora...THEY KNOW BBQ and it shows! It was FANTASTIC, DELICIOUS, MOUTH WATERING AND the taste was authentic and perfect.

The restaurant was clean, orderly and sanitary. The floors were swept and mopped, tables clean and all the sauce containers were clean and wiped down.

The waffle fries were perfect, delightfully seasoned and blazing hot.

The brisket was hot, tender, juicy pulled apart nicely and melted in your mouth. Perfectly flavored with a nice rub.

The chicken was hot, tender, juicy and seasoned perfectly. The skin wasn't crispy but that was the only thing wrong I could find with the chicken and I'm not deducting very much for that.

The ribs were fantastic. Not fall off the bone, but came off with a little bite, very tender and juicy and tasty.

The mac n cheese was hot and very good. I loved the taste and texture.

The sampler platter for two was what I ordered. I ended up getting a to go box.

The honey bbq sauce and the jalapeño bbq sauce were AMAZING. 🤤😋

The staff was attentive, helpful and very friendly. They asked how the food was and how my experience was and that says a lot about a place when everyone cares.

I give 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️ and an overall grade of 98 out of 100 or a 9.8/10 only deducting for the skin on the chicken.

I highly recommend this place to my friends, my family and to anyone reading this. This is as good as it gets in every aspect.

I'll be like the Terminator on this one: I'll Be Back. 😎

Nice review! Wish they were closer for me. It safe to say I nearly never go to the Aurora area. Just too dang far.
 
I want to go there in name alone!!! Kinda like the "Irish Mafia Brewing Company". It was around Rochester NY but had to go on the name alone.
 
Love the name. Have some friends from Aurora visiting this weekend and dont live too far from there. Will have to let them know about it. Bet they do a good bit of biz from the hospital. When did it open? It wasnt there when I lived there, at least that I never heard of it.

I don't have any idea. I know it's gotta be recent. I remember seeing they only had a food truck last year or the year before because I wanted to go try it. Then I saw their ad the other day and it said the had a sit down building to eat at. The inside looks really nice, but it is tiny. Not a lot of room in there.
 
I'll be on record as saying this is the ONLY review I have ever left where I gave a BBQ restaurant a score of 98 out of 100 or better.

The chicken skin was the only deduction. They did EVERYTHING ELSE right.

This is a place that gets it. In every aspect from the experience, to the customer service, cleanliness and the quality of the product served and it being HOT, TASTY AND FRESH.

I'm not sure I'll ever leave another 98 or better. I hope I get to. I love to boast and brag about a great place to eat.
 
Kinda, I dont like driving in the city all that much. If I make it out that way for something else I will surely check them out!
Now you have a great excuse to go over to Sam's Meats off Illiff and Chambers, then stop by Big Belly Bros BBQ. 😁
