First off, the food was amazing but the young lady who helped me was so rude, The one with black hair and glasses, She was on her phone while taking my order, She was constantly getting told by her manager to do her job because she was on her phone in front of customers, And other customers were saying the same thing about her as well, She also mishandled my food and basically almost threw it at me when i was in the drive thru and when i didn't leave a tip in the beginning, She started acting like a brat to me and my husband like rolling her eyes when she closed the window not thinking we can still see her and handing our card with a nasty look on her face. I will never come back because of the service i had experienced and it made my experience there 10 times worst!! Now i never want to go back there and order because i think she'll do something to our food or worse! read more

The best Ive tried so far on my cross country trip without a doubt! Ribs were so delicious and the meat comes off the bone eating with one hand. Had a flavorful bark and just the right texture. Brisket was tasty and not dried out. Corn and mustard potato salad was very good. Leo the pit master was a cool friendly guy and was easy to chat with. I highly recommend you try this excellent barbecue at least once when in the area or just passing by. read more

This place has some of the best bbq I've ever had. Such a crowd pleaser. I love all the meats. The brisket with bbq sauce is amazing! The jalapeño sausage is amazing! The chicken breast, so yummy. Oh, have you tried the loaded mashed potatoes, a must do? Peach cobbler is bomb. Hands down, go and give this place a try. Great staff too! read more

Sanger doesn't have a lot of restaurants, and what we do have we generally protect. My issues with the BBQ here are how salty it is with little smoke flavor. I couldnover look the salty if the smoke level was there. I also find it dry compared to others. I am a BBQ snob, so take my review with a grain of that salt and try for yourself. read more

Damn Good BBQ! Just love the way the meat hits my mouth! 3 meat plate - brisket, ribs, and pork read more

Southern BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Sanger, Texas

This is a mix of experiences that lead to a four. 5 ... The service was fast and helpful. The sides (creamy potato salad, green beans, cole slaw) were all flavorful ... they also have a baked beans, borracho beans, corn on the Cobb and a mustard based potato salad. The roll was soft and fresh. 3 ... The meat, however, was different. While the meats were juicy, they lacked any smoke flavor. I did enjoy the pulled pork. Yet the brisket and turkey were pretty basic. I will add they have tacos, sandwiches, and baked potatoes. read more

We order southern bbq quite frequently considering we work right across the highway from it. Their food is delicious, no complains ever. I will say the woman who answers the phone is anything but nice. I could rave about the food but we are hesitant to even call up and place an order for pickup because she is SO rude. read more

Went through the drive through and got the brisket baked potato and a rib dinner. Both were excellent and had generous portions; friendly service too. Definitely will be back! read more

Food was NOT HOT AT ALL. Figured since I came when it just opene, I'd give it another try. Same thing, unheated food, at three more times.

Ambiance: The place itself is nice, a stand alone building off the frontage road of I-35. The decor was about what you would expect from a bbq joint. The tables were spaced nicely so that your neighbor wasn't sitting in your lap. Counter service: Place your order and watch them cut your meat then they hand you the plate and you serve your own sides. The set up reminded me of Soulman's BBQ because it's the exact same set up. The menu was even very similar. Service: Everyone was pleasant. I didn't have a lot of questions so there was not much interaction, as to be expected with counter service. No one came around to check on people while we were there. Food: This is where the stars begin to fall off the review. I had the two meat plate, brisket and jalapeno sausage. Neither of which was great. The sausage had no snap and wasn't very jalapeno. The brisket was dry with a barely visible smoke ring and no real bark to speak of. I didn't notice until after we were eating that the cutting station where you place your order had a heat lamp scorching down on the brisket and other meats. Maybe that's the culprit for dryness? The sides: I had "bbq beans" and potato salad. Also not too good. The beans tasted like baked beans from a can that were attempted to spruce up but missed the mark. The potato salad wasn't bad, but it was just missing something leaving it rather bland. Overall, we were not too impressed with Southern BBQ. Unfortunate. read more

Passing thru to Oklahoma! We Are from Tennessee. Heading to Chickasaw Annual Conference and Festival. The brisket and Mac & cheese was amazing! Chicken was very tasteful. Loaded brisket fries was a snap platter but my son liked it. The restaurant and restrooms were clean and the staff were friendly and helpful in recommending the daily special. We were too full to eat desserts but their Homemade pies and cobblers Looked amazing. read more

Great food and selection. Large portions, Friendly atmosphere. I will eat here every chance I get !

Really good "Que". Got a three meat platter: brisket, sausage & pork ribs. Surprise was the sausage, very central Texas like. Brisket was very moist and well cooked with good smoke taste. Mac and cheese was spot on. Free soft serve cone was the cherry on top. This place was far above expectations. Try them, you'll come away with a new place for excellent barbecue! brisket read more

Just stopped here for lunch while traveling. Quick friendly service, although much of it is self-serve. We both had brisket, which was good and tender. Excellent mac & cheese! Would stop here again. Quite an old building, but it looked very neat and clean. Even the bathrooms were good! read more

The food is delicious and the people are so nice!! They have to go and pick up! You can also dine in! The brisket and Mac and cheese are to die for! read more

Southern BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Sanger, Texas

Testament to a great BBQ restaurant is the "fatty " brisket and this place has a very good offering. Sides made in house especially the beans are great. Another tell tale sign of good BBQ is the sauce. The regular and spicy sauces both compliment the BBQ. read more

Good barbecue, not over smoked. Sides are tasty, love the dill potatoe salad, fried okra are my favorite. Folks always nice.

I go here A LOT. I live right next to it. but recently I have been so disappointed. I barely ever write reviews, but I was so excited for my food only to be disappointed. I am currently eating the tacos I got from here and they had the audacity to give me the DRIEST LIME IN EXISTENCE. I get that this town has white washed tacos, it's Sanger TX, so I usually don't expect much at all. But one tiny little 1/4 of the driest lime in the world? Pleaseeeeee! I like yalls tacos but when I first started getting them, they would give me 2 small wedges for 2-3 tacos. But recently I'm spending money here to get just 1 lime that's drier than the Sahara? For THREE (3!) tacos. That's just cheap business and honestly shows that they are starting to care less about their customers and food. This is the fourth time in a row it has been like this in the past month and a half. At first I thought it was just a one off, but it's starting to seem like they truly don't care anymore. I get it's probably family owned, but it's the easiest thing in the world to make sure your produce is good..... read more

Hard to describe how much I like this place- let me just say, it is worthy of trying several times a month! Great food.

if I could give them no stars I would we always would get the tacos and we drove off my eight year old said there is one taco I looked back and she was right. went back and the manager accused us of lying why would I waste my time to go back to scam them out of a free taco. I was being honest and he sat there and argued with me for five min I didn't even get a refun! F that place never going back that guy was a complete fool. don't go there they will jip your food and laugh in your face when you explain what they did! read more

This is our go to BBQ place. There is a great variety, food is always fresh and there is a convenient drive thru. It's hard to name a favorite but if I had to, it would be the pulled pork, dill potato salad and cole slaw. We also love the ribs, baked potatoes and peach cobbler. Whatever you get, you can't go wrong. Please note: they also have a rewards program. Make sure to sign up for it to get freebies read more

Southern BBQ definitely has some solid food to offer. I had the sliced brisket and jalapeño cheddar sausage. Both were above average and had great flavor. The sides were decent as well and the rolls were perfect. The staff were so kind. Everyone in my group enjoyed their lunch. I look forward to visiting again when I'm in town! read more

Southern BBQ - Brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, loaded mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Sanger, Texas

Absolutely love this place the mac a cheese is a must have !!! Also people are always nice!!!!

Brisket had alot of fat chicken was dry jalapeno good beans tasted like bush from a can okra was salty cooked in old grease

Ordered the chopped brisket sandwich. Meat was cold, sauce flavor was below average. Me and my girlfriend spent $40 on lunch for two and were totally underwhelmed. Nice people but would only go back if every other place in Sanger was closed that day. read more

The food was great and at an shockingly good price. Definitely go try them out. Oh yeah, kids eat free on Sundays?! YEAH!

The food tasted dried out, and i got it at 8pm they close at 9 so that could be why. The meat, mashed potatoes, and peach cobbler all tasted dried and not great. I've had their food before and it was good, so maybe a bad time to order but for the price thats still not great. read more

The food is great, I love all their side dishes. My favorite has got to the be mustard potato salad and the bbq beans! They also have a daily feature menu with different item menu each day. They are definitely not stingy when it comes to packing to-go orders! I love the family vibes this resturant gives as well, the staff are all very friendly and nice! Fun fact! Children 12 and under, Eat free Sundays with Dine in only! read more

Best brisket fries ever! You must go inside and eat, the have a free buffet bar for bbq sauce and toppings and delicious desserts.

Yesterday we stopped in for a late lunch. My husband and I ordered one meat plate with one side. We both had sliced beef. The meat was soft and tender. It tore apart easily. They serve your meat and hand it to you. Then you can select your own side. I ordered dill potatoe salad and I had mustard potatoe. Both were good and my favorite is the mustard salad. They have different bbq sauce. I tasted the original which is not too sweet and perfect for me. Their machine has crushed ice which was a nice surprise. He walked backed to get another a refill drink. On the way out, I grabbed an ice cream cone. They also have pies to go with your ice cream. There is plenty of parking for all types of vehicles. read more

Southern BBQ - Having bbq with drink and ice cream - Barbeque Near Me - Sanger, Texas

Great smoked bbq, awesome in the small town of Sanger, definitely a local favorite, everything is good there

Don't let the name fool you...they do more than just BBQ! They have the absolute BEST brisket street tacos! Tomatillo salsa is delish!!!!! Family owned. Reasonably priced. Oh...if you like fried okra, order a medium side. You'll thank me later! read more

Wonderful staff and great food. Looking for some good bbq they have you covered. Right in the heart of Sanger, eat in or take out.

Didn't care for the food - it wasn't bad, but certainly not good. Could have been an off day? The fact that they charge $2.50 to cut a sandwich in half if you plan to share because "both people might use the relish bar / free ice cream" is more than a little ridiculous. Not a wise choice when other options are available so close by. read more

NASTY NASTY NASTY BBQ...Do not waist your time here... ribs are like previously frozen mush and the bbq beans are out of a microwave ten times before served.... The BBB already has issues with this joke of an establishment and I should have looked it up before wasting $60 on junk read more

Pedestrian bbq. Think Dickey's. Sliced brisket might as well been chopped. There was no bark and taste had a bland, oven cooked flavor. Service is good and prices what you'd expect. Just not worth a special stop. read more

Southern BBQ - 2 meat plate - Barbeque Near Me - Sanger, Texas

I was disappointed in my experience at Southern BBQ. In my opinion the brisket was marginal lacking in smoked flavor. The sausage was moist. I'll probably never go back. read more

Delicious! Awesome baked potatoes, loaded fries and the chicken!! Can't go wrong with anything you order from this local spot.

Lindsey was fantastic. my family had a great experience. Excellent customer service. We will definitely be back

Completely amazed by our experience here!!! We drove through because we couldn't dine inside due to the COVID19. The lady who took our order was so nice and informed us of the daily special as well as other items on the menu. We ordered the loaded brisket fries, a loaded baked potato with meat (their Saturday special) and a 3 meat plate and 2 sides, plus dessert. We were hungry and about 30 mins from home so we decided to just pull into a parking spot and dig into the loaded brisket fries we got because we didn't know how good they would be by the time we got home. Can I just say...DELICIOUS?!!! They were amazing!! Everything else looks amazing...we just haven't made it home yet to eat. What made our experience even better was that the lady from the drive through, who is the actual owner we found out, came outside to check on us and make sure we were enjoying our food. Who does that anymore these days??? It really was a nice touch to know they care about their customers and we will definitely be back when we are up this direction!!!! UPDATE: We ate the rest of the food and it was fantastic!!! read more
