This restaurant has prices like world renowned Country Tavern (Kilgore,Tx). My husband got a medium sized two meat plate...there wasn't enough meat to make a sandwich. I got a turkey sandwich and should have just made one at home from store bought meat. $10 for a tiny sandwich. I can go to Bodacious in Gladewater or Kilgore and have more meat than I can eat for the same price!! read more

Do not get the brisket or ribs. The huncho gave me the driest cold scrap ends of brisket.

Service was good. But the meat sits on the counter..... It wasn't hot. They don't use gloves when handling your food either. For 29.02 for two chop brisket sandwiches and 2 sides I'm not very pleased. Clean store and good attitudes just not happy with the no gloves and handling of meat while touching EVERYTHING ELSE!! Don't touch your face phone counter and other items then use your bare heads to chop or cut the meat.... Leaving meat out and letting it sit and stay cold.. I won't be coming back. read more

Bodacious Bar-B-Q - Chopped brisket sandwich - Barbeque Near Me - Gilmer, Texas

Lowering my review from a 4 stars to 3 stars... Food is good, service is usually pleasant and the pricing is great if you are paying cash.  If not you will be charged a 3.5% surcharge for the privilege of using your credit card.  I know nothing is free but the percentage they are charging is horrible and over what they pay unless their financial institution is raking them over the coals.  Regardless, diners beware of the additional cost when dining here so you aren't caught off guard. read more

Bodacious.......the name says it all. I have never had a bad Bodacious experience in all the MANY years of eating there. The only thing I ever have is the chopped beef sandwich with tons of their delicious sauce. Yum. Portions are always generous. This was a favorite of my Mom's before she passed. People in the Gilmer store are always friendly even when people are lined up at lunchtime. Place is always clean. I do recommend this place. read more

Bbq that always hit the spot. I had the loaded potato today and it didn't disappoint. Service is always good. Typical interior for a bbq place. Rustic but could update. read more

Avoid this place if you can. The food is never good. Brisket is probably the worst brisket I've ever had. This place is an embarrassment to the entire state of Texas when it comes to BBQ. The owner/manager (named Steve) is incredibly rude and unprofessional. I overheard him talking to one of his employees and I was disgusted that someone would talk to another human being that works for him, making money for him in such a bad way. This is probably the worst restaurant in gilmer, and that's saying a lot. I also went in the other day because a friend of mine wanted some of there sauce they sell on the side, there were three people working. Two men were sitting on their phone, didn't even look up when I approached the counter. Then I notice a blonde headed girl was there doing all the work. I asked her why she's doing everything and they're sitting around on their phones, she said, "that's usually how it is". What a joke. At least I was able to give her a nice tip. read more

Bodacious Bar-B-Q - These are the kids that didn't even pay any attention. Even as I approached them to take this picture. The girl did everything - Barbeque Near Me - Gilmer, Texas

Had lunch here while in town working. Food was mediocre. Meat was dry and tasteless, beans were good, bread was stale and potato salad was just nasty. Besides that the man at the counter was surly. read more

For the money find another bar-b-Q stop ! The man cutting the meat is rude acts like you are bothering him to eat there! The lady was friendly. All in all not going back ! Give my money to somebody that actually wants it! read more

Nice friendlY staff and large amounts of beef servings. Much better than the location in Longview, the meat is more tender. The Longview location needs to take pointers from the cook here. read more

Bodacious Bar-B-Q - Nice! - Barbeque Near Me - Gilmer, Texas

I've been to 3 different locations and the bbq is good but there prices are crazy high. If I were you, I would take my business elsewhere. There is plenty of good bbq in east TX at lower prices. read more

We needed some BBQ for a lunch with family. We had Ribs and BBQ Brisket that looked great. They were heated up in the oven and put on the table. This was a great meal! read more

Meat is dry, and gives you heartburn. Ok for amateur BBQ, but should be better for a chain restaurant. As of late, quantities are low and prices are high. The employees are the only good thing about the place. read more
