For the **4th year in a row, Big E’s Smokehouse has been voted BEST BBQ IN TOWN**, and for 2026, I'm so incredibly proud to be named the **Platinum Winner for BBQ Restaurants in Brownsville!** 🏆

When I started this journey, the goal was simple: serve **real Texas BBQ**, cooked low & slow over post oak, treat every customer like family, and never compromise on quality. Every early morning, every long night tending the pits, and every sold-out weekend has been worth it because of **YOU**. I would like to add my Girl Friend Lily Silva for the last 2 1/2 years how she has help me so much here in the resturate by making everything more effishent and keeping our inventory inorder and her Father Arturo Silva to show every sunday to help me serve sunday bbq to all our customer I WANT TO SAY IM SO GREATFULL FOR ALL THE HELP

To Brownsville, our loyal customers, friends, and family—**THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts.** You continue to show up, support our small family business, recommend us to your friends, and allow us to do what we love.

**2023 • 2024 • 2025 • 2026 🏆🏆🏆🏆**

We don't take one single vote or one single customer for granted. This award belongs to all of you just as much as it belongs to us.

From our family to yours, **THANK YOU, BROWNSVILLE!** ❤️
