A Texas Barbecue Primer From Regional Styles to 6 Essential Stops

"This East Texas mainstay continues to thrive even after the passing of the late founder, Roland Lindsey, thanks to his wife, Nancy, and granddaughter, Madilynne, who run the corporate business. Lindsey first opened Bodacious in 1968 off Mobberly Avenue in Longview, and today his grand-son-in-law, Spencer Halling, mans the pits of the original location, cranking out housemade sausages with a satisfying snap and saucy brisket sandwiches served chopped or sliced. The Mel-Man sandwich — a large helping of chopped brisket mixed with a chopped hot link between two buns — has become somewhat of a local legend over the years, and their Dr. Pepper burnt ends and spicy pinto beans are the winning combination and only served on Fridays or Saturdays (sometimes both days)." - Kristy Alpert
