Sometimes a small amount of moisture can make a brake surface very sticky. I have had them grab like that. Once they dry out they are OK. If it is not that, you might have a wheel cylinder going too far out and locking in that position due to lack of adjustment.

I had the same problem on my 98 Xj.Had to jack it up with the wheels on it and found out it was a out of round brake drum.What bites about that is I just did the brakes 3 or 4 months ago!!!It never did it before though,thats what I get for buying middle grade-supposedly good drums!I just replaced everything:drums,all hardware&wheel cylinders.Sound is gone!!!Oh by the way I used Wagner drums&shoes with Raybestos hardware&wheel cylinders.:D
