I like Bodacious for that area. Get the rub and sauce and bring to Gris Gris.

Wife has a place a few miles from the one by the Kilgore exit. Actually up by where Sao’s Sonic.

Try Jack Ryan’s in Kilgore. My neighbors sons own it.

Too bad Lupe’s is gone. Not sure what for Mexican. Stop by Harley’s Liquor for all your Hot Damn needs.

Bodacious on Mobberly is not the same as the other Bodacious. Was ranked in the top 5 of Texas Monthly a few years back, not saying TM is the holy grail of BBQ but it's a good reference.

El Rincon or El Sombrero for Mexican.

Juicy's for a burger or breakfast.

Roma's for Italian.

Jack Ryan's in Kilgore is great and they are good ppl as someone referenced. Huge Tiger fans.

Get an Earl Campbell kolache from Shipleys.

Dairy Queen for Steak Fingers.

For those who have had both, Which is better? Carter’s or Bodacious? I’ll be grabbing some bbq on my way back to LA this afternoon. Thanks

Look up Country Tavern just west of Kilgore.
It’s only like a 30min Drive.

I grew up in Longview (went to Spring Hill HS)

Best hamburger in America: Jucy’s

Best pizza in America: Pizza King


**anyone ever visiting Longview needs to go to these 2 places, and bring me back take-home-bake frozen pepperoni pizzas from Pizza King (I prefer double pepperoni while you’re at it)

And yes, chopped beef is great at Bodacious, but I’d recommend Pizza King and Jucy’s over Bodacious

Also Posados is probably my favorite Mexican restaurant in Longview

Shogun (hibachi) has always been a favorite of mine as well
