Texas BBQ Lands in Mooresville

Texas BBQ Lands in Mooresville

Tucked into a storefront on North Main Street, Big Tiny's BBQ brought a slice of West Texas country straight to Mooresville in 2016. Husband-and-wife team John and Elizabeth Maddox traded wrenches and spreadsheets for smokers and sauce, building a spot locals now treat like a second kitchen. Pull up a chair, the mesquite smoke will do the rest.

About Us

Low, Slow, and Mesquite Smoked

Low, Slow, and Mesquite Smoked

Every brisket, rib, and link of sausage at Big Tiny's spends hours over real mesquite wood, the same way Pitmaster John learned it standing beside his father in Midland, Texas. The bark forms dark and peppery, the smoke ring runs deep, and the sides, cream corn, collards, sweet potato casserole, taste like Sunday dinner. This isn't fusion barbecue; it's the real Texas thing.

This place is an absolute stop at while in Mooresville, nc. OMG. I had to try the dinner for 4 - 3 meats. I must say though that if you have any objections to pork that the collard greens has chunks of sausage possibly pork in it. But I tried the brisket, chicken, and turkey as meat choices and it was absolutely ... amazing. OHHHHHH so delicious. The Turkey was my favorite meat choice but the brisket wasnt bad either. Hey. Honestly, the entire meal was great. The seating is spacious enough to hold a private conversation, smack your food, etc... the staff was also very friendly and I loved the military flags before the counter. Yessss! I love a business that supports the troops. As a veteran... i'm all in. There was no one to rush you to finish eating. No one to constantly nag you while eating yet friendly enough to help when needed. The strawberry cake was great as well. I have no complaints at all. I will definitely visit time over and time again. I made a special trip just to mooresville and stumbled across this great place. So worth it.

Big Tiny’s BBQ is the real deal. The brisket here is hands down the best around—tender, smoky, and packed with flavor in every bite. You can taste the time and care that goes into the meat. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is laid-back, and it’s the kind of spot you can’t wait to come back to. If you’re a ... BBQ lover, Big Tiny’s needs to be on your list. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
