On the way to Monument Valley I noticed Big John’s Texas BBQ along the way. I could not resist.
As we got closer I saw smoke billow from Big John’s smoker. I love the scent of burning wood mixed with beef or pork. There was a good amount of seating inside and much more outside.
It’s odd to see a Texas bbq without beef ribs so I ordered a rack of pork ribs.
Loved the flavor of the dry rub which had a perfect balance of black peppercorns and brown sugar. Pork was almost fall off the bone tender and had a bold smoky flavor from being smoked. Best pork ribs I’ve had in a while.
Big John’s has a good selection of ice cream.
I tried the Huckleberry and vanilla. Huckleberry was rich and creamy with a sweet huckleberry flavor. Taste alot like the huckleberry ice cream at the Black Bear Diner. Vanilla was rich and creamy with a sweet vanilla flavor. Very tasty but next time I’ll double up on the huckleberry.
Page, Arizona is a cool looking small town with some delicious Texas style bbq. Staff was nice and helpful.

They sure have tasty sandwiches and barbecue sauce! Wouldn’t mind stopping in again someday.
We should go there next time we go to Monument Valley. 🙂
Looks delicious and the bottle labels are both welcoming and descriptive ha ha.
I’ll have to visit Monument Valley again so I can get some more delicious bbq and ice cream. 🙂
