It was 1530 (3:30 pm) by now. This was the 4th place the Google Map led us to after three failures. We were seated and served instantly by a young smiling hostess then a waitress. The waitress answered every question we had about the foods on the menu, including the portion sizes (generous). My wife chose the Jalapeño and Jack Cheese Links with baked beans and crispy fried okra. I picked the Sliced Brisket, cole slaw and crispy fried okra. Our appetizer was a fried string onions with a garlic flavored ranch dip. We are picky about our okra, we want it crispy, crunchy and served hot. This was perfect! The atmosphere was open, tables only, several tvs, on (sports), the staff were all inviting and friendly, the waitress was always asking if we needed anything everytime she went by. The restrooms were clean and the children's drawings in the hall cheered the place up. (I especially liked the green pig with the yellow head.) They gave us the military discount, probably offer first responders discount as well. We would highly recommend the Shreveport Bodacious BBQ on Line Ave and will go again!

He told me to call him and let him know how it was after eating it. I must say, I called him back with good words. I told him, I had eaten all the ribs and sausage before even trying the BBQ sauce. The flavor of the ribs and sausage was so good, it didn't even need sauce. When I did try the BBQ sauce it was really good. The beans and dirty rice were really good also.

I had been bragging about "real North Louisiana BBQ" to my kids, but when our take out Podnuh's order of a pound of dry and tough ribs arrived with a large styrofoam cup container of mashed potatoes (looks like someone just spooned a tiny bit of gravy on the top), I was let down. The baked beans container was small too. The thing that kinda makes it complaint-worthy is there was no BBQ sauce with my order. As a whole, the presentation and value vs cost here was way off..... I wonder if this was just a coincidence or if this is normal. $55 for so-so BBQ is not what I think of Podnuh's. It has to be better than this.
