Big Bone BBQ & Wicked Wings

Very disappointed! This was one of those epic fails where you wonder how this person would cross the street and survive it!
One very busy evening, with work, errands, kids karate, hit the gym and the whole shabang, My husband and u decided we’re getting take out!
We called around to see who can accommodate our needs… # 1 wings must be baked #2 MUST be gluten free!!!
This place offered the smoke the wings and of course no sauce, since after going back and forth, we learned almost all their sauces have gluten in them!
We decided to go with the dry wings, smoked no sauce! And again confirmed that they will be gluten free and wheat free, and of course not make any contact with either or! And yes I was there next to my husband confirming the order had been under stood.
My husband brings home 2 containers, neither one labelled. Ok… I figured the saucy ones will be hubbys and the dry… Well obviously mine, after all that…
I open the container to find my ‘2 pounds’ more like 1 pound/​10 wings, sitting next to a whole bunch of fried which are clearly breaded!
That’s ok, I must have ordered the wrong box! I opened the next box, well… Same thing!!!
So wait a minute where’s MY food…
Dinner time has come and gone!
We called told them that happened… Well they offered me a lousy credit or another order of wings but with salad… Guess what people! The gas we spend driving our ass there and back TWICE in 1 night is not worth your scrony wings!
Terribly disappointed!
And the interior of this place… Well let’s say I don’t recommend eating in side!
(Whole in the wall)
Will update and see how attempt #2 goes.
By the way check out the pictures I posted as reference and see if you can tell me which are which?!?
I’ve got everything near me at Weston and major Mack. Why on earth would I come back??? Even the Thai place next door had better, bigger and gluten free wings! Oh and yes; much cheaper!

Amazing deal $ 25 for a full rack of ribs, 1lbs of wings and fries. Make sure if ordering takeout to ask extra sauce for the ribs, their BBQ sauce amazing :).

Portion is big and price are lower. Smoky tasty rib with a deep smoky flavors and juicy which is what they are famous for. Texture is like soft and meat is easier bite out of the bone. Well, wing is good but it is a normal size. Sure Wild Wing is bigger and all star got more sauce choice, but surely more expensive and tip bigger. Well, service is much faster compare to others wing place. Pull pork taste is deep (I mean BBQ sauce that is and juicy (actually chef told me that he can make it more juicy depend on your order). BTW, got a very good price kids menu. I bring my kids to eat there.
About this location, ambience is like an old small restaurant or local pizza joint or a family restaurant, so if you are picky on ambience or love a bar or sport bar setting, I think you should pick sometime else like wild wings or even real sport in ACC. Surely you paid high on drinks and wings. They have 5 different location, but this place is small and quiet which good for a family or friend gathering that love to talk quietly. I don’t recommend for a big group over 6 because the place is not big. BTW, no wifi.
Service level is not like a bar that has a nice waiter to serve you. So, how big the tip is all up to you like those that needs to be 15% and up, since there is only 1 person to serve. Well, I never compare this one with a bar, sport bar and high end restaurant because I will adjust the rating to its price, quality, portion, ambience, service and facilities. I think this one worth around a four star.

Pulled pork is not pulled pork. Beware. The wings are tasty but really small. St. Louis are larger. Speaking of which everything is Kansas that, Texas this. anyway, if you live in the area I recommend take out. Not only you save on the tip but also the service is spotty and the dining room really sad. To top it up at 8:30 they put up the chairs on the table to signal they are closing down. Yes, you read that right. EIGHT THIRTY.

Ribs? Who doesn’t like ribs?! Big bone is definitely worth the trip out of the city to have these delicious ribs. Besides, they have some great deals where you can have ribs, pulled pork and wings. It’s a meat fest!

This is a small little place that serves really generous portions. We came as a group of four and ordered the meal for 3 – 4 people which included two rack of ribs, two pounds of wings, large fries, coleslaw and beans. The meal came out to $ 68 for four people which is pretty reasonable.
The ribs were the best of everything we ordered and I’d say this what this place is known best for. Meat is tender and slides right off the bone. The combination of the smokiness and barbecue sauce were great.
The fries were also really good. Very crispy and full of flavour. I’m guessing they are fried with the oil from the meat.
Wings were OK. The wings themselves were fairly small but the flavours were ok. I’d still prefer Wild Wings over Big Bone.
The coleslaw was very bland. It also took in a lot of the odors and taste of the fridge. Wasn’t pleasant.
The restaurant itself is pretty beat up. Don’t expect nice interiors and atmosphere when there. It’s really all about the ribs lol.

This company needs to learn a thing or two about customer service. I had been trying to contact the corporate office regarding catering for two weeks. Today I finally spoke to a manager. He advised me that the date I requested had been booked over a month ago. When I tried to explain the inconvenience it caused me he told me that he had to go. I was in the process of telling him that I would be posting a review regarding my experience and he just hung up on me. Not a great way to treat a potential customer that was going to spend $ 1500.

If I was one of those people who could eat whatever they wanted and never put on weight, I’d live here!
I am amazed by the portion of food for the cost and how good it taste. Every time!!!
If you’ve never been here. Try it on a Monday, no one wants to cook on a Monday anyways so go grab their Monday special I think it’s 1 lb of wings and ribs and fries for $ 25 tax in (don’t quote me though because I like to order a bunch of stuff… no matter what it’s worth it). You won’t regret it!!! The only thing you’ll regret is not ordering more on Monday to get you through the week.

The only thing missing from real Texas style BBQ is: white bread, pickles and onion slices. And blackberry cobbler homemade.
Otherwise awesome.
A model for BBQ is

The pulled pork is fantastic so are the fries
the sides are a hit an miss though. sometimes they’re really good, other times not so much

Came here for the Monday special.
Was told it was going to take 20 minutes due to the lineup of orders so we left and went to Walmart for a bit and came back. I think because we left the store they thought we didn’t want our order anymore and cancelled it. When we cleared up the misunderstanding they made our order ASAP and gave us a discount even when we refused, which we allocated to the tip jar up at the cash register.
The guys who work there are so great despite the crazy amount of orders.
The ribs were tender and fall off the bone, they could have used a bit more sauce though. The wings were okay, as were the fries. Definitely coming back for more ribs and to try out the pulled pork.

Amazing rib place ! The bbq was so good here. Portions are amazingly large. Place was packed with people coming and going with new orders. Food came pretty quick. Looks like a dive but food is worth it. Just look at the picture. Enough said. Service could be better.

Once you have the ribs here, you won’t go anywhere else! Great prices for the quantities, and (other than the cornbread) everything is always great! Made a recurring customer out of me!

Terrific pulled pork sandwich.
Decent price and quick service.
Interior is ugly, food is good!

I’ve been maybe 5 times now and am a big fan of their ribs and their smoked chicken wings. Service is laid back, and friendly. The ribs are better than a lot of places I’ve had including the joint on Islington/​Hwy7. If I’m in the mood for an unhealthy but wickedly delicious meal, this is where I would go.

Second time visiting this restaurant and they didn’t disappoint me again. We purposely came here on a Wednesday for their beef ribs and it was definitely tasty. I loved the barbecue sauce. The meal came with corn bread, coleslaw, baked beans, and fries. I did share my meal with my husband and it was just enough for both of us :). I can’t wait to come back here.

After reading the positive reviews, we were so stoked to try this place out… so 3 of ventured out on a cold winters night to try some BBQ smoked food. To say we were all disappointed would be understatement. Don’t get me wrong, the food wasn’t dreadful… we were just expecting so much more based on the great feedback.
I ordered the Elvis — 5 wings (Jerk style. which they rate as 3 on a heat scale of 1(mildest) to 5 (hottest).they were more a 1 (very mild)), ½ lb pulled pork (excellent) 3 bones of ribs (eh…I’ve had better. but they fell off the bone which is a plus), coleslaw, baked beans (too much molasses), cornbread (not impressed at all with this) and fries (awful). It’s a lot of meat for one person but at $ 19.95 a real deal. Would I order it again… you betcha !
2 friends ordered the 1lb of wings… both Kansas BBQ. They came with fries a well. Both said that there wasn’t enough sauce on them but that they were OK. Would they come back for wings here again… both said no.
Décor on the inside is very minimal. I think it’s more of a take out joint than a dine in place. There are perhaps 5 or 6 tables of 4 each… so seating could be tight on a Monday night (when there is a great special).
The million dollar question… would I go back. If in the neighbourhood again I might… but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here again.

I had a long chat with the BBQ chef and he is well trained and versed in good old BBQ
They have over 20 wing sauces from Signature to dry cajun to hot thai to hot creamsicle to the murderer of 911 Inferno
But its not just the wings they are a Memphis style BBQ joint, sauce is sweet tangy and BBQ has very good smoke flavor. Don’t wear nice clothes to this place because it can get smokey if you are having a sit down dinner.
Best deal is on Mondays where you get a full rack of ribs, 1 lb of wings and a large fries or salad for $ 25 smokey bucks which is like $ 15 bucks off regular
The menu offers a great selection of your usual salads, obviously ribs and wings, variations of in a sandwich format or burgers, fries and a special piglet menu for the little pigs in your farm
The wings can be ordered in two ways. Their original smoked which are marinated for 2 days then slow cooked in the smoker, tossed in the BBQ and then glazed in sauce
OR
Fried wings that are coated in a 10 spice mix and fried and are served up plain or with the various sauces
The ribs and pulled pork and beef brisket is slow cooked in the smoker for over 4 hours
These guys rate up there with the Tennessee rat hole BBQ joints but we get the experience here locally

Warmer weather we’ve been experiencing has me seeking good old fashion BBQ.
Ordered a Big Bone Combo to split which has a little bit of everything to try.
Includes a half rack of ribs, 1 lbs. of wings, fries, beans, coleslaw, and corn bread.
Inside, décor is simple, wooden chairs, arrangements of 2 or 4; a large table was setup for 10. On the walls trophies from competitions and media mentions. They do serve alcohol here Canadian, Keith’s, Steamwhistle, Fuzion Red & White Argentinian wine.
When our food was ready, the chef behind the counter proudly presented it to us.
My take:
The ribs are smoked with a pronounced dry rub flavor.
The wings deep fried then tossed in sauce. we had a Spicy BBQ sauce it was perfect combination of sweetness from a ketchup based BBQ sauce and frank hots to give it a Buffalo flavour.
Fries were ok but I’ve had similar tasting ones at KFC. If I could make a suggestion, is to offer fresh cut to complete the house made experience.
Coleslaw — fresh not soggy. Ok.
Baked beans — house made good balance of molasses and bits of meats
Corn bread — like a cake, dense not what I was expecting.
I found Big Bone quality a bit better than the travelling rib fests vendors. Only thing Id suggest is they could improve on the frozen fries.
I enjoyed the meal very much and look forward to revisiting.
Recommend!

Mini Combo ($ 14.95) at Big Bone BBQ is not MINI, I was so stuffed after having that for lunch.
3 to 4 Bones (Not fall off bone tender but not dry and have great bite)
Original Smoked Chicken Wings ½ lb (juicy and tender)
or
Smoked Pulled Pork (Soft and just have the right touch of BBQ Sauce)
Fries (Crispy and Lightly seasoned)
Coleslaw (Homemade, the sourness balanced out all these meat)
Beans (more BBQ and Meat)
Cornbread (I ate that as a pound cake, dessert anyone?)
All «Smoking» delicious!
I like how the meat were not soaked in BBQ sauce as sometimes that can be quite overwhelming. .
The Cook/​Waiter/​Cashier is super friendly and nice. Always checking on us and making sure that we have everything we need.
I still full… I think I am ready to take an afternoon nap… dreaming about pigs… and chickens… Big Guys eating Racks of Ribs…
Maybe I should have ordered the Monday Madness ($ 25) that includes 1 Full Rack and 1 lbs of Wings plus Salad or Fries… Maybe next time… when that Pink Pig calling my name or My Unilocal Friend calling me for lunch?! Whatever!!!
