Big O's Texas BBQ
"Now Open For Dine In & Carry Out!"
About Us
We’re Big O's Texas BBQ, and we’ve been a barbecue restaurant here in Waterford, WI, since 2021. We specialize in authentic Texas barbecue and culture, and we offer brisket, pulled pork, chicken, ribs, and much more, all smoked and seasoned to perfection. Our owner Otis fell in love with barbecue as a kid growing up in Dallas and he's been sharing his passion ever since. We’re looking forward to partnering with Racine, Kenosha, and Walworth counties to continue to offer a premier barbecue restaurant experience. We’d like to personally invite you to stop by to try our peach cobbler, today!
Our Story
Big O's Texas BBQ is the culmination of a lifelong passion for authentic Texas barbecue, served with a side of Southern hospitality. Located in Waterford, WI, our family-owned restaurant has been bringing the rich flavors and traditions of Texas barbecue to the heart of the Midwest since 2021. At Big O's, we pride ourselves on offering an unforgettable dining experience with smoked meats and savory sides that are seasoned and cooked to perfection. From tender brisket to flavorful pulled pork, chicken, and ribs, we create each dish with the same dedication and love that started in our owner Otis's childhood.
Otis, the heart and soul behind Big O's, discovered his passion for barbecue as a young boy growing up in Dallas, Texas. Every time the family gathered for a barbecue, his mom would let him handle the grill, sparking a love for grilling and smoking meats that would follow him throughout his life. His commitment to creating the finest barbecue came from years of perfecting the craft, learning the art of slow-smoking meats, and mastering the balance of flavors. This passion has become the foundation of Big O's Texas BBQ, where every dish is a reflection of Otis’s dedication to excellence.
We specialize in authentic Texas barbecue, focusing on quality, flavor, and technique. Our menu includes a variety of smoked meats, including brisket, pulled pork, chicken, ribs, and sausage, all cooked low and slow to lock in the deep, smoky flavors that make Texas barbecue so special. Each item is expertly seasoned and smoked to perfection, ensuring that every bite is juicy, tender, and packed with bold flavors. Whether you're in the mood for a savory meal or a quick snack, our menu offers something for every craving.
In addition to our smoked meats, we also offer delicious sides that complement the main dishes. From creamy mac and cheese to tangy coleslaw, every side is made with fresh ingredients and prepared with the same attention to detail as our barbecue. And don’t forget to treat yourself to a slice of our homemade peach cobbler—a sweet, comforting end to your meal that has quickly become a customer favorite.
Big O's Texas BBQ isn't just about great food—it's about bringing people together to experience the culture and tradition of Texas barbecue. We’re proud to serve Waterford and the surrounding communities, including Racine, Kenosha, and Walworth counties, and we’re excited to continue growing our presence in the area. Our restaurant is now open for both dine-in and carry-out, so whether you prefer to enjoy your meal with us in our welcoming atmosphere or take it home, we’ve got you covered.
We invite you to come and experience the true taste of Texas at Big O's Texas BBQ. From our smoked meats to our Southern-inspired sides, each meal is crafted with love and dedication. Stop by today and sample our sausage, try our famous peach cobbler, and taste what true Texas barbecue is all about.

What a great experience. Sausage, pulled pork, brisket, beans, slaw and peach cobbler. Abundance of food. Ordered for 10 and we had 9 and then second meal for 7. We have left overs!
Great working with Otis. Efficient and reasonably priced. We have to be sure we order more often.

Stopped in for lunch at work. They have a deal for $2 off any plate. Ended up with the brisket and it was some of the most tender brisket I've ever had. Beans and peach cobbler were great too. Only complaint would be that i would love to see some homemade bbq sauce.

The food is truly Texas barbecue. It's difficult to find such authentic Texas brisket in the Midwest. Big O's has done it. Brisket is perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. Portions are Texas size and you will not be hungry when you leave. Service is the best. We went late and the place was jumping.
