Red Shanty BBQ & Cafe

Red Shanty has hands the best the best barbecue I’ve ever had in a restaurant. The brisket was fantastic. The homemade chips are great. We ordered 2 pieces of the amazing butter cake and 2 more to go. Large portions and more than fairly priced. Service was so friendly and speedy, too in a great atmosphere. Can’t recommend highly enough.

It has to be one of the best BBQ I ever had hands down. The meat is super juicy and the flavor is on point.. you have to try it for yourself you won't regret it . att a guy just happen to driving by

Such a cute, friendly place with great food. They make their own chips with a few seasoning options. Highly recommend trying the chips. They have a VERY LARGE alcohol selection. I would guess just about anything you want. They also have some really cute items for sale as wells as a candy section with some old fashioned types you don’t see much any more.

The brisket wrap was exceptionally good! Plenty of chopped brisket in the wrap. I was very pleased. The flavor was excellent. We enjoyed the Vodoo seasoned cowboy chips, and The trinity sandwich and pulled pork sandwich was also very good and plentiful. You get what you pay for. You'll leave happy and satisfied! Our server was very good as well. I don't remember her name but she was a young long-haired blonde girl. Very personable and efficient!

A Hidden Gem in Higginsville – Unforgettable BBQ and Outstanding Service From the moment we walked into The Little Red Shanty BBQ Joint, we knew we were in for something special. The rustic charm and warm, welcoming atmosphere made us feel right at home, but it was the service—and the food—that truly set this place apart. Our server, Morgan, was an absolute standout. She kept our drinks topped off with perfect timing and genuine friendliness, and it was clear she truly enjoys what she does. Her energy and attentiveness made our meal feel more like a dinner with friends than a night out at a restaurant. We felt like valued guests in her care. As for the food—wow. I had the BBQ pork ribs, and they were everything you want from great barbecue: tender, juicy, and practically falling off the
