It was my first time ordering, & VERY DISSATISFIED ! I ordered the Sample plate, & the meats were SOOOO dry. The potato salad was watery like, & the beans had NO flavor to them at ALL. It's the 4 of July & they're serving BULL... NEVER AGAIN! read more

My potato is always SLAMMin' I normally order, via DoorDash and they never disappoint! Service, for me is always just "down home" nice. I had the chance to finally stop by, to order in person - greeted my very nice - I didn't have to wait 2 long - and the store is very interesting, to say the very least! Ambience was decent, however that PARKING - whew! Don't get your car washed before going, #imJustSAYIN' read more

Let me first start with the good, the cook on the brisket was very good not a dry piece on the plate. Friendly people. Place was clean. Now let me get to the heart of this place, all the meat and sides needed more seasoning, more oomph! I would title this place almost there or going in the right direction just needs more oomph to their food. BBQ sauce was a little thick but again has a good base. Also, fix your soda machine or get rid of it and sell individual cans or bottles. I know running a restaurant isn't cheap but having 3 of 6 options out of order isn't a good selling point. Especially when the out of order signs show how long they have been out. Again this place has a good base just needs to take it up to great. read more

They were very kind and had everything ready. They included extra bbq sauce & toppings. The only complaints I'd have is the meat was all piled in one container. We ordered a variety of 5lbs and the Mac and cheese was so dry no one ate it, they also only included a few slices of bread. For the price I would've expected better quality. read more

I at least want to give this a 2 star rating for the staff but I can't bring myself to do it with how extremely bad the food is here. The other reviews saying this is good bbq, either have never had good bbq or they have no taste buds. There wasn't anybody there when we pulled up, but I figured it was because it was an early Thursday night. Nope, not the case here. I think the true locals know this place is bad. The staff was extremely nice! The food on the other hand was so bad. We barely touched our food and pretty much threw everything away. Even the sides were sour and tasted bad. The sides and bbq sauce tasted like they had been sitting there all day or even multiple days, which I'm probably right. The meat was discolored and was very dry and didn't taste good. I honestly don't know how this place hasn't gone out of business. Anybody reading my review, take mine seriously and do not even entertain the other reviews. You can zoom in on my plate and see the discolored meats. I say the following with no exaggeration at all, this is the worst bbq I have ever had in my life. read more

Shorty's Texas Bar-B-Q - Baked Potato and Banana Pudding - Barbeque Near Me - Seagoville, Texas

Some of these best BBQ I've ever had! The atmosphere is a real ole school style vibe. You walk in there and the smoky aroma of excellent bbq will hypnotize you. A huge menu, portions are awesome, and amazingly priced! The ladies that helped me were super nice, great conversation about bbq! I had the three meat. The meat does not need sauce at all but when you add the sauce, it's even better and didn't think that was possible. Brisket was tender, potato salad and cowboy beans are amazing. I didn't order any but I did get a sample of the smoked cabbage and it can't be beat! Sleep on it if you want to and you will regret it! This place is awesome!! read more

Do yourself a favor and visit this place! The BBQ is great and the sides good, especially the gumbo. The staff was very nice And helped us out a lot. Please go and support this local place. They are open pretty late and they make plenty of food so they don't run out of everything by the early afternoon. A must! read more

Wow! The BBQ was fantastic - so full of flavor and the prices were very reasonable. Shorty's lunch special is a sandwich, chips and a drink for $8.99. My husband and I shared a 3 meat plate with ribs, sliced brisket and chicken with 2 sides (BBQ gumbo and cooked cabbage). They don't skimp on the meat and it was so juicy! The rub on the ribs was sweet and tangy and there was a ton of meat in the gumbo. I think our total was just over $14 and there was more than enough food! We left with very full bellies!! They have catfish on Friday and Saturday nights and I'm sure it is just as delicious. The servers were also super friendly. My only complaint is that it's not closer to North Dallas (where I live)! ;). If you're passing thru, I highly recommend stopping!! read more

Shorty's Texas Bar-B-Q - Three meat plate of ribs, sliced brisket and chicken with BBQ gumbo and cabbage with BBQ sauce on the side. (3 Meat Plate with 2 Sides) - Barbeque Near Me - Seagoville, Texas

Family came over last minute so decided to order from here since I've seen decent reviews for it. Got $80 worth of brisket, chicken, sausage and a few sides.. sides were whatever 4/10, but the meats were all dry and bland. Save your money if you love good BBQ read more

BEST BBQ i had around this side of town . Best service with great people and the food is to die for plus I had one of their PIES , it was OMG!!! . Over all it was clean and amazing place I would recommend to take family or a date night. If I could get a discount on this place since I'm like 5mins away from here and it was first time coming there I would so make this my place every Saturday instead of the flea market down the street ‍‍. Best bbq read more

I have lived in the area of Seagoville for close to 40yrs. I am not much to eat out because I think of myself as a pretty good cook and I am not much a BBQ sauce lover, either. To say the least, I am pretty hard critic of any restaurant. I also never go to the point of writing a review, but it was hard not to in this case. I went in for the first time.... a true country feel. They have Rock Christian music playing and there is a Bibles on every table...how refreshing in light of what this country is going through but after reading their story, no wonder their faith in Family, God & Country to get them through the hard times, as well as, the good. I got the ribs & chopped brisket, tender & very good flavor and I didn't need the BBQ sauce, perfect. Pricing was very reasonable. I had their Cole slaw & green beans. Saved me from cooking that night but I had left overs with the ribs that I made breakfast with fried Golden potatoes, chopped green onions & scrambled eggs over shredded rib meat & then layered a Colby cheese over it. "Basically baked potatoes with rib meat." Needless to say it was an absolutely a hit that morning. Thank you, Shorty's...I will be back :) read more

Food is not very good. Chopped meat looked like the grizly part not used. And the BBQ sauce was almost frozen, and tasted like it was watered down. The side dishes were not either. read more

still the best bbq ribs & brisket in dallas, period , nuff said for best bbq in dallas !!! Don't get no better BBQ THAN SHORTY's a good Christian owned business!!‍"THE TEXAS BLUES MAN" read more

They have a really nice chopped beef sandwich. But I would not recommend anything other than the chopped beef sandwich.

sorry,but my first order with them ,did not impress me,the meat tasted boiled rather than bar,b,que and the sides tasted spoiled.

I thought the barbecued brisket sandwich was just great!!! I wanted a second one!! I saw another guy with a to go box with the same sandwich, he was complaining about there being too much fat on the meat, I thought the ratio of fat and me was perfect!!! read more

My husband and I stopped here for a takeout just a few minutes before they were closing up. The staff could not have been nicer and the food could not have been better.

We are out on the porch and will definitely be back again soon. So good. read more
