Fire-N-Smoke Wood Fired Kitchen

This bbq is incredible. We were road tripping and passing by overnight in a nearby motel. Decided to get some take out to try this place out and ordered the two meat platter with burnt ends and fatty brisket. It was incredible bbq - it's good enough you don't need bbq sauce, the crust was wonderfully charred and smokey, very beautiful. The green beans were also fantastic. Best of all was the price - only around 21,22$ for the platter, two sides, and bread w garlic butter. It was so good that we went back two more times - once right after getting the first platter, and one last time the day after when we stayed an extra day due to a snowstorm. The ribs are also really good. I'm so happy we were able to eat such amazing bbq unplanned for.

One of my kid's favorite places when we visit. I find you don't need to commit to the BBQ here as you can order brisket on a bun rather than make a sandwich with white bread + meat. I am OK with that, but a BBQ purist may not approve. Either way I found the brisket tasty.

BBQ was good, bar service was a young space cadet, she wasn’t on the same planet as I was. lol. Light fixtures drop dust bunnies when your jacket hits it accidentally. Watch out. lol. But I’ll be back. It’s next to the hotel. Hahah

Fire n Smoke is hands down the best BBQ in town! We’ve been coming here regularly since discovering it, and every visit has been consistently fantastic. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and top-notch. I also really appreciate that they’ve kept prices reasonable without sacrificing quality… such a rare find these days. On top of that, the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Definitely a 10/10 experience, highly recommend!

Moving my reviews over from Yelp. This was the ROTD in STL on 1/15/17: What a surprising find in a veritable wasteland! The wife and I stopped on the way to Parent's Weekend in Ohio. I wanted something quick (but DEFINITELY not fast food) that we could enjoy. I remembered that fellow Yelper Brian M had good things to say about the place and decided to give them a shot. The woman who was working the counter answered all of my questions about the restaurant and their food. She also recommended the two-meat combo since we were looking for something to split. She told us their two most popular meats are burnt ends and pulled pork so those were our selections. We also picked their sweet potato casserole and baked beans. The food was so amazing that I really need to give some details on eac
