Bodacious BBQ - I-20 & Hwy 14 East of Tyler


As usual dinner time came and it was time to strap on the feed bag. We had already decided that one of our nights out would be at Bodacious BBQ. So we hippety hopped to Bodacious. We usually see this place with a good number of customers on the parking lot, but not tonight. Also, this is a stop for truck drivers and there were two rigs here tonight. Bodacious is not a chain of BBQ restaurants in the Texas area. They say they are the real one!!

 The wifey and me ordered the two meat plate or as I call it the Bloggers Special. We got brisket, hot link, pinto beans and potato salad.

The brisket was a fairly lean cut of meat and that is good because Mitcho does not like much fat on his meat. The brisket had a nice taste to it and the BBQ sauce had a good spicy twang. So it was pretty good BBQ, now it won’t compete with Franklin’s, but whose BBQ will? The hot link was a little fatty and was short on hot, but it was ok. No  real complaints here.

The real story here is the pinto beans. These beans had plenty of chili spice in them. There was a definite chili taste to these beans. Mitcho luves chili on his beans. This is a big plus here. I may be back to get some beans to go.

The potato salad was run of the mill, it tasted ok, but no real pluses or minuses.

Overall, given Bodacious a non-Bodacious 7.1.

NOTE: Tyler has a Rudy’s BBQ on the North side of the loop. Mitcho is a big fan of Rudy’s.
