The first instance of Big Daddy's BBQ opened near 46th St. North and Cincinnati
Avenue in Tulsa, Oklahoma - out of a trailer. Big Daddy started selling Turkey Legs
and soon after decided that Bar-B-Que was his thing. Business out of the trailer
continued for 3 years until he had a confrontation with the city of Tulsa. Because of
code enforcement, the city was going to clean up North Tulsa, and started with Big
Daddy's trailer operation. Big Daddy fought the city and won. This first location is now
a full service Big Daddy's restaurant located at 4560 North Lewis.
Serving the freshest and tastiest BBQ in Tulsa, Big Daddy set out to build his second
location near the corner of 11th St. and Garnett in Tulsa. This second location has
now moved across the street from where it was before and is now on the east side of
11th and Garnett at 1125 S. Garnett with convenient drive through service.
Patrons from all over Tulsa and the surrounding areas couldn't get enough of Big
Daddy's "smoke" and so the decision was made to open a third Big Daddy's All
American BBQ in Jenks, Oklahoma. The Jenks location was the first to feature waitress
service. Big Daddy soon found out that his brand of barbeque became a favorite of his
Jenks customers at the 399 E. Main St. location. Tanika Tomas, Big Daddy's niece is
the manager of the Jenks operation.
Soon after the opening of his third restaurant in Jenks, Big Daddy got requests from
friends and customers in Broken Arrow to open a fourth restaurant and in
October of 2005 - Big Daddy's All American BBQ opened the fourth restaurant of it's
kind at 2001 W. Houston in Broken Arrow.
