Big Q Barbecue

Doing Barbecue The Way Barbecue Was Meant To Be Done!

The Big Q Barbecue is part of a long line of traditional Quick's family Barbecue. Marvin and Herb Quick first opened Quick's 7th Street Barbecue in Armourdale in 1953. In 1986, Rusty Quick, Marvin's son and Gary Wright, Marvin's son-in-law started the Big Q Barbecue in Maple Hill.

Rusty started working at the 7th St Barbecue when he was 10 year old, busing tables, doing dishes and learning the business from the ground up. In 1979, Gary started working in the family business and learning the trade.

The Big Q has always done barbecue the way barbecue was suppose to be done; in a oven with 100% wood burning fire. Our ovens are made for barbecuing like barbecuing was intended to be, and not for just smoking meats. Here at the Big Q, we don't smother our meat with a lot of dry rub. We simply use our barbecue sauce on the meat, put it in the oven and light the wood fire under it...the way the Quick family has been doing it for over 60 years!
