Our Beginning
We started Fat Man Barbecue to share our love of smoked meats with Indianapolis. What began as a small idea—to create meals that feel homemade and full of flavor—grew into a spot where families and friends gather. From the first brisket to the last pulled sandwich, every dish is made with care. Our goal is simple: bring people together over food that tastes like home.
The Heart of Our Menu: Smoked to Perfection
Our menu features BBQ favorites like tender brisket, juicy ribs, pulled sandwiches, and Shanon’s Pickles. Everything is made fresh, with quality ingredients and secret sauces that make each bite memorable. Homemade sides, like beans and cornbread, round out the meal. Each dish reflects our love for authentic BBQ, prepared the way it should be, full of flavor and care.
