    BBQ lunch!
    Rick B.

    There is great BBQ all over TX, and this is one of the better examples. Stand in line to order from the easiky-read wall menu. We had the Rib Sandwich Plate and a Briscuit Sandwich Plate. Both were tasty, although I was surprised the 'Rib Sandwich' consisted of bone-in ribs with 2 pieces of bread. (Some assembly was required! Hah!) The Potato Salad, Macaroni & Cheese, and Beans - were all fantastic! The Sweet Tea was also good. Hurry on over and try this BBQ!

    Brisket with spicy bbq sauce, potato salad and the best Mac n cheese

    Great food and service. Perfect portions to share and great bbq sauce. The brisket was my fav and loved the Mac n cheese!

    Amazing!!! Our first time in the Big state of Texas and the people here are so welcoming. Thank you Texans We couldn't leave Texas without having BBQ we chose Bodacious and the minute we opened the door we were greeted by a wonderful lady that had a smile from ear to ear. Told her we have never had the BBQ and she gave us suggestions that we took. I ordered the rib plate with beans & potato salad enormous serving ribs fell off the bone with a delicious tangy highway to heaven goodness, I have had beans at other establishments which I will bite my tongue that is overly sweet but here at Bodacious just the right amount of heat, salt & sweet. Potato salad perfection The hubby had brisket sandwich, Cole slaw and green beans I will leave it to your imagination HINT: my husband never stops talking but when he was eating his meal I did not hear a peep... lol I only wish I bought their BBQ sauce but no worries we will be back for good soon Atmosphere, food and staff absolutely wonderful thank you

    delicious ribs

    What a fantastic little spot and the staff is incredible. I stopped in passing through today. If I had ordered just the brisket and the ribs, it would have been five stars. Adding the jalapeño sausage brought it down a bit, not that it was terrible. It just was not as good as the rest. The brisket was incredibly moist and very well cut. The ribs were outstanding, and this is coming from a guy who does not really like ribs. They had enough smoke, and they were tender yet not falling apart. The sides were excellent. Also, make sure you try the barbecue sauce. It was delicious. #lowcountrycajun

    This is place is just off the highway, but sort of tucked away enough that you wouldn't notice it immediately. I've had my fair share of Texan BBQ and I will say that the meats are above average. We got the combo meal with a leaner brisket and spicy sausage links and those were juicy, flavorful, and tender. The brisket was on the drier side, but since we did order lean, I'm sort of letting that slide, especially because their BBQ sauce more than made up for it. I do wish I bought a bottle while I was there because that stuff was decadent. On to the sides... the Mac and cheese was average. Nothing to rave about, same as the green beans. The star of the show was probably the coleslaw which *might* be better than Austin's Rudy's, and that's a coleslaw my family absolutely adores. They also had good pickles (nice and sour) and jalapeños. The kitchen and counter staff were friendly and were able to also provide us plates and pre-wrapped utensils for our takeout meal upon request. I definitely recommend if you're passing through and highly recommend the spicy sausages!

The people at the counter who greeted us were super friendly and thankful that we stopped by on our road trip from Dallas. We ordered fatty brisket, ribs, sausage, a texas twinkie, the illustrious Brussels sprouts, tater tot casserole, and potato salad. Everything was really good. The brisket was smoked nicely getting a really good render. I like it all little saltier and more spiced personally, but it was really good. The ribs seem like the house specialty. They are spare ribs and have a really good glaze on them. Fall off the bone and perfectly seasoned. The sausage was fine. All the sides were excellent. Brussels are about as good as they can get. The potato salad was creamy and rich. The tater tot casserole was interesting. Kinda pasty but still really good. I thought it needed some crunch but that could be because the way they hot hold it. We will be back every time we are in sulfur springs. This is top notch Texas BBQ!

The…read morebuilding is an old style gas station that has been transformed into a casual BBQ restaurant with plenty of parking. Easy in and easy out. Call-in "to-go" orders are welcome. My first visit to Sharon's BBQ and Grub House was on a Friday, at forty minutes past the hour of eleven in the morning. The restaurant was reasonably busy. I must have had the look of being lost on my first visit, but the staff quickly told me and my guest to seat ourselves and a waitress would assist us. The table we chose was in the front section against the wall with a nice window looking out onto the parking lot and onto Church Street. Unfortunately the table was unclean from the previous guest and littered with cracker crumbs. One of the staff quickly wiped the table down for us. Sharon's has a "special of the day" posted on the board along with a standard menu. On the day of my visit, the special was pulled pork tacos and that is what I selected, for $7.75. Not a bad price at all for BBQ. The plate was delivered quickly to the table and the food was warm. The pulled pork was tender and served on the small "street taco" style flour tortillas. There were three. On the plate was a bowl of course chopped white onions, and two-blend course shredded cheese and a small serving of BBQ sauce. I was offered sliced jalapeno peppers, I declined. This particular special also was also accompanied by a side of pinto beans (approx 1/3rd cup). The plates and bowls remind me of the kind that I used to eat from when I was in elementary school. The shredded pork was moist and tender and the tortillas were warm and fresh. The BBQ sauce was surprisingly sweet. The pinto beans were not remarkable. What makes Sharon's BBQ and Grub House a jewel is that it is on the northside of town, easy to get to (one does not have to traverse 18 traffic stop signs to get there), easy in and easy out, and they serve quickly. If you dine with Sharon's BBQ and Grub House, you will actually have time for lunch with time to spare. I will certainly eat at Sharon's BBQ and Grub House again. No regrets! Sharon's BBQ and Grub House accepts credit cards and is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10:20 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. https://www.facebook.com/Sharonsbbqandgrubhouse/
