I've been here twice and both times the food was delicious . . . ribs the first time and brisket sandwich with fried okra the second! The meat is sooooo tender, smoked and REAL bbq. Don't miss this place, it's as good as it gets for down home food at reasonable prices. You won't find better bbq in Texas....sho nuff!! More

Wonderful ribs! Great brisket and great catfish as well. The shrimp were run of the mill but it didn't detract too much from the tastiness of the other items. If I am ever in town again I will definitely stop by. More

Had the catfish basket. It was hot, great taste and reasonably priced. At the recommendation of my fishing guide (who only gets BBQ), I tried the cheese burger basket for lunch, on my way out of town. It's a grand slam of burgers. Awesome. I'll be back to try the BBQ on the next fishing trip to the Sabine River.... More

Went to Daddy Sam's while on business in Carthage for dinner. Ribs looked tasty and actually tasted great. However, 5 small ribs with a side of beans and a side of potato salad with a water was $15. Doesn't make a lot of sense but I wasn't in the mood to argue. I would ask questions about costs if you... More
