Built from scratch in Columbia, SC

Big Bull's didn't start with investors or a business plan — it started with sandwiches for coworkers and a smoker on the side of Hard Scrabble Road. Ten years in, nothing about that has changed.

What our guests are saying

Absolutely amazing BBQ! We stopped at the Columbia location and had St. Louis ribs, wings, burnt ends, dirty rice, and coleslaw. Everything was a 10/10, especially the wings and hot sauce. A true hidden gem that was well worth finding. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

We drove from Charleston to try this place, and it did not disappoint! The pork rinds were fresh and popping, while the brisket, ribs, and pork were incredibly tender. The fried pork chops were the best I've ever had, and the sides were all delicious. The brisket mac and cheese was a must-try! Amazing Southern BBQ, and we'll definitely be back!
