When the culinary talents behind J&C BBQ took over Bigfoot Grille in July 2022, they weren't just merging two eateries; they were creating a gastronomic haven where quality reigns supreme and every meal feels like a celebration.

The fusion of these culinary powerhouses has introduced a menu that's a feast for the senses, where the best of American comfort food meets the finesse of professional competition-grade barbecue. Imagine sinking your teeth into a juicy burger you choose the ingredients of yourself, where the patty, be it Wagyu, Elk, or a hearty Garden Patty, is just the beginning.

Build it up with a choice of cheese, double down on the flavor with your choice of distinct sauces, and top it off with a trio of garnishes that make each bite an adventure. For those who prefer the chef's expertise, the signature burgers, like the 'Bigfoot's A Big Dill' Burger or St Helen's Inferno Burger, are nothing short of legendary.
