IT"S NOT A CHAIN. <br /><br />The original store owner (South Longview) opens a store with a formula. He gets a distressed properly, old Dairy Queen, uses the same "old stuff" decor and get a 30something as an assistant. He runs the store with them for 6 months plus and then its their store.... with a little royalty.<br /><br />Some stores learn more than others. Gladewater in particular has outstanding ribs and several have exceptional brisketTerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233136766970701014.post-75083527132637813312012-09-17T22:42:12.730-05:002012-09-17T22:42:12.730-05:00I know you've got to be sick of hearing it but...I know you've got to be sick of hearing it but you still haven't visited the right Bodacious. The only one really worth your visit is the South Mobberly location in Longview. There you can get excellent brisket still smoked and carved by Lil Roland, the man who started it all. It really is night and day from the rest of the chain. Check the hours before your visit because they don't stay open all day like the others.leshassellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16740389302309773255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233136766970701014.post-39536980214058532942010-06-07T19:24:15.428-05:002010-06-07T19:24:15.428-05:00I agree with it being a gamble.

I go rather frequently to the location in gilmer, and it is (to me) the holy grail. then again, that may well be simple nostalgia....johnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233136766970701014.post-50588678899929326282010-06-06T22:28:27.461-05:002010-06-06T22:28:27.461-05:00I've been to several Bodacious BBQs in East Te...I've been to several Bodacious BBQs in East Texas. <br /><br />There ain't no mythical Bodacious holy grail.Plano Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233136766970701014.post-31813600981668614112010-06-06T10:49:26.532-05:002010-06-06T10:49:26.532-05:00Hah!

Sadly, it down a year or two ago, after the owner decided there was more money to be made in roofing than barbeque.<br /><br />I've been to the Bodacious in Arlington - it was "fine".bourgonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09926914854024288990noreply@blogger.com
