If you are like me, when you have a craving for good barbecue, you want GOOD barbecue. The mediocre dishes simply won’t do. While we have several favorite BBQ restaurants in Idaho, one that has received multiple awards and is definitely a place to go when the craving for good BBQ arises is Big Daddy’s Barbeque. Located in Meridian, this BBQ restaurant has it all from juicy meats to nachos, tacos, and salads. Check it out below.
Big Daddy’s Barbeque is one of the best BBQ restaurants in Idaho and it has received multiple awards proving it. In fact, this restaurant was voted Idaho’s best BBQ restaurant in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.
When it comes to the menu, there is plenty to choose from. You can start your meal with an appetizer like the Big Daddy Wings, brisket poutine, street tacos, BBQ nachos, and so much more.
If you are there for the meat (which I always am!), choose from one-meat, two-meat, or three-meat BBQ platters. I always go for the three-meat platters because I just can’t choose a single meat to devour. The options include, but are not limited to, brisket, pulled pork, smoked turkey breast, and tri-tip.
The burgers and sandwiches are always a must-try at Big Daddy’s Barbeque. You’ll find traditional options as well as a few unique items like the Swine and Cheese. This is the ultimate grilled cheese with pulled pork, macaroni and cheese, gold BBQ sauce, and grilled sourdough bread.
Choosing your sides is just as difficult as choosing your meats or entrée. Big Daddy’s Barbeque offers a long list of sides like BBQ beans, coleslaw, chili, potato salad, onion rings, macaroni and cheese, and a loaded baked potato.
I also recommend you order a dessert with your meal at this award-winning BBQ restaurant in Idaho. Even if you don’t have room for these sweet treats, take them home. You won’t regret it.
Big Daddy’s Barbeque is open seven days a week and serves both lunch and dinner. You can learn more on the Big Daddy’s Barbeque website and the Big Daddy’s Barbeque Facebook page.
