Title: Looking for restaurant in Mansfield Texas?
Post by: MarkinJHawkland on August 26, 2016, 05:25:56 PM

Can anyone recommend a good bbq restaurant near Mansfield Texas?  South of Ft.Worth? I guess any good restaurant really. Thanks!

I use Yelp ( smart phone app available in the Google Play store - or the  Apple store whichever phone you use..)

Thanks I use yelp but I figure the crowd here knows its stuff better than the average yelp reviewer 

FWIW I ended up at place called Big D that was OK. They were out of all meat expect ribs which is usually a good sign. They were just ok. Very heavy on smoke. Too much for me. Nice vibe to the place with a guy singing and playing guitar.

Thanks again,
Mark N

Big D is solid, but you figured that out already.  There isn't much out that way other than going into FW or Dallas.  Jambo's is sort of close as is BBQ on the Brazos.  Both are worth a trip.  Those are about as close as you'll get to Mansfield.

Thanks for the info. I'm not against taking a drive for some good grub. I'll consider the two you mentioned. Thanks again.Mark .
