ABOUT OUR HISTORY
The Story of BigShow BBQ – A Legacy of Championship Flavor
Hailing from Kansas City, one of America’s most legendary barbecue towns, BigShow BBQ has been serving up award-winning, slow-smoked perfection for over two generations. What started as a passion for authentic KC-style BBQ quickly grew into a competitive force, racking up awards across the country in states like Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and beyond.
Founded by BigShow Joe, a natural-born pitmaster and truly the most hospital person ever, the brand became synonymous with bold flavors, time-honored smoking techniques, and unforgettable barbecue experiences. Along the way, Joe mentored Big Jim, who now carries on the tradition—traveling coast to coast, competing in BBQ contests, and feeding thousands at ribfests, burn-offs, and catered events. With a dedicated team of BBQ pros like Jenny T and the legendary griller Que, BigShow BBQ continues to bring the BIG taste and BIG flavor that made Kansas City famous.
Serving championship-winning ribs, pulled pork, beef brisket, and chicken, they’re not just cooking BBQ—they’re preserving a tradition, one smoky, savory bite at a time.
