Great food, great conversation with the owner operator, hope I get through here again soon

Following a peaceful day by the lake, we decided to sample a local eatery before returning home. A quick Google search led us to Big Bo Sherman's BBQ, which boasted impressive reviews.
Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly by Mr. Bo himself. His hospitality and demeanor were genuinely inviting, complemented by his charming Texan/Louisianan accent.
I selected the brisket and sausage plate accompanied by beans and potato salad, while my companion opted for a baked potato topped with brisket and a side of ribs.
The brisket appeared to be oven-prepared rather than smoked, lacking both smokiness and flavor, and was disappointingly dry. Similarly, the ribs seemed oven-cooked, with no trace of smoke or distinctive taste. Their texture was unpleasantly soft and ultimately unsatisfying.
The beans emerged as the highlight of the meal, offering a peppery depth and rich flavor profile. As for the potato salad, I found it inedible—resembling mustard-infused mashed potatoes rather than traditional potato salad.
Mr. Bo's exceptional customer service and friendly personality deserve recognition. However, his barbecue style simply didn't align with our preferences.

We decided to stop and grab some BBQ and we are so glad we found this little hidden gem. The Shermanator was amazing and so was the baked potato. The owner is so sweet and we really enjoyed our conversation with him. We will be back for sure!

Stopped by and got some BBQ. I was very disappointed I didnt get to try the ribs. They ran out so I would suggest getting there early for that. Got a brisket sandwich. It was good. Loved the beans that came with it. There is a small outdoor eating area so that was great.

At home BBQ with a family atmosphere. Sausage, ribs and beans were phenomenal! Mr. Sherm is a great man and watched out 1 & 4 year old while we polished off the remainder of the food. Called ahead to make sure they still had food left and Sherm answered quickly with “Y’all come on, we’re full up!”

Small portions. Brisket tasted like it was cooked in an oven. No smoke flavor and very fatty and cold. Once i got all the fat off. There was only enoungh meat left for one slice instead of 3 slices only 4 slices of sausage. Pinto beans were extremely salty and potato salad was mushy (like mashed potatoes)With pickle juice. I would not recommend

Imagine stopping in to see your favorite uncle except he also serves you great barbecue. Sherm is a southern gentleman and a nice guy. Great experience stopping on our way to Austin, highly
Absolutely fantastic! I have been working in TX for 6 months and frankly haven't found good BBQ until a friend of mine told me about Big Bo Sherms and I was not let down. I drove 4 and a half hours from Corpus today 5/20/2023 and I was not disappointed. I got brisket, sausage, potatoe salad, and baked beans and let me tell you it was what I picture Texas BBQ to be. I will have no problems making this drive again real soon!
