I had that happen once on my pickup maybe 15 yrs. ago. It was raining and on the slick road, there wasn't enough friction and the rear tires just slid along. I recall jacking up the rear, removing the tire, backing off the brake shoe adjuster then tapping around the drum with a hammer until the shoes popped loose.
