The motto at Big Ant's BBQ is “slower is better,” which means ribs, brisket, and hot links are prepared with the dedication it takes to get through a three-hour movie. On the menu are six-ounce brisket plates, baby back ribs smothered in sweet housemade barbecue sauce, 10-hour-smoked pulled pork, plus something called pork candy: smoked and glazed pork belly chunks that are sticky and tender. The best move here is to build a platter with a little bit of everything, including sides like cornbread, baked beans, coleslaw, and collard greens.
