According to a press release this morning, "Fox Brothers Restaurant Group (FBRG), the team behind Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q and Big Tex Decatur, is closing Big Tex on November 3. The Big Tex space will be retained by the group for an unforeseen period of time."
More from the release:
Growing demand on the Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q kitchen, stimulated in part by the designation of the restaurant as the official barbecue of the Atlanta Falcons, made the decision to close Big Tex necessary. “We are certainly going to miss serving our loyal friends in Decatur we have made over the 3 years and we hope to be back one day. We are thankful for the additional demand on our barbecue business but closing Big Tex is bittersweet. We will be focusing on the future of Fox Bros Bar-B-Q with expansion and the build out of our new catering/commissary facility on Ottley Drive. The new commissary will really be a game changer for us and help meet the needs of our restaurant in Candler Park and future Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q restaurants,” Jonathan Fox, Partner and Pitmaster of Fox Bros Bar-B-Q.
Big Tex Decatur, located at 308 W Ponce de Leon Ave in Decatur opened in May of 2011, serving Texas food inspired by the Fox brothers home state.
