East Texas Bbq place you should eat at
1. Stanley's tyler 2. Original Bodacious longview 3. Country Tavern stick to the ribs kilgore 4. Sheps palestine Stanley’s is not even close to what it use to be. I believe the pitmaster is now at the original Bodacious on Mobberly in Longview. That too bad, I grew up eating at Stanley's. The bodacious on mobberly was near grandmothers house are there everytime we visited. You appear to have been to casual with your list. I wish you would have labeled it “tentative” or some such before posting.

CT is way over rated for anything. Ribs are ok. It is also over priced. That being said, it is not worst. But I am not a huge fan of Stanley’s either, in spite of all the awards they receive.

23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy. Take note—your reward is great in heaven, for this is the way their ancestors used to treat the prophets.

I have been here in East Texas for the past five years and, for the most part, it is an eating wasteland. My go to BBQ place is Smoke Monkey on 155 in Flint. The original is in Rockwall. While BBQ is a personal thing, these guys are pitmasters and catered presidential dinners for both Bush's and for a few governors. They have great brisket, pulled pork and ribs as well as what are probably the best beans I have ever tasted.
For the most part, though, the majority of BBQ, burger and Mexican restaurants are mediocre. Each area may have one or two good places but they are few and far between. That would be Eddie Deans. If you ever doubt, just have 1 call with Mr Dean and he will tell you.

I agree with the guys. CT is all about ribs.
Great ETX BBQ joints are
Bodacious on Mobberly Ave - #4 in the Texas Monthly Best BBQ Joints Stanleys think they are #8 in Mobberly Ave Riverport in Jefferson Top 50 also Bodacious in Hallsville is also a solid joint.
Now, hoping one day that we can get Forand Family Barbecue in Texarkana on the list also.

East Texas was bbq hell for years, but it is getting better. Of course, the original Bodacious in Longview is back to where it was in the 70’s. Darrell’s bbq in Center can be very good. Brendyn’s bbq here in Nacogdoches may be the best of all of them.

I was never impressed with CT's brisket. Stanley's is OK but it is definitely living off its past reputation. I occasionally go there for lunch with vendors and I get the mother clucker sandwich Cadillac style and that is very good. https://knue.com/the-ten-commandments-of-the-mother-clucker/
