Read MoreBig Pinks BBQ
Big Pinks BBQ is born out of a passion for food. You can travel this great country and find all different types of BBQ which the locals swear by as the best. We aren’t trying to take any one style, but instead just aim to make great tasting food and therefore; we call our food Jersey Style Q. We define Jersey Style Q as follows: DIFFERENT RUBS, FOR DIFFERENT MEATS We believe different meats deserve rubs which compliment their flavor. So we make our own unique rubs for the meats we serve at Big Pinks. So rubs have a few ingredients and others have the whole spice cabinet! YOUR SAUCE SHOULD SUIT YOUR TASTE Are you Sweet? Spicy? Sassy? Or maybe a little different? We believe being a unique individual is great and should have the right to choose you flavors. So we have at least 8 individual sauces at anytime so you find the one you like or have fun and make your own sauce out of all of them! SIDES MATTER We believe there is little worse then having a great rib or piece of brisket and you go to taste your sides and NOTHING! No flavor, no spice, no nothing.
