This is a wonderful BBQ place in a classic old building. Feels like an old general store at the stop sign in downtown. Food was good and beer was cold.

Great service. Great location. Great atmosphere… but anyone who has ever ordered brisket at a BBQ place will see this picture and understand my rating.

My favorite bbq in the world!! Great drinks too. I come for the dry rub chicken wings well done every time but i tried the burnt end chips and the amazing veens as well. Very reasonably priced for two people only 50! I just love them. Just wish they had a buffet!!!

Enjoyed this place. Had the burnt ends (appetizer) and a hot link sandwich with mac n cheese. Burnt ends were really good in particular, had read reviews they frequently run out of them or they sucked lol, but I thought they were some of the better ones I’d had in the STL area. My server was also good and attentive, I’d eat here again if in town.

We enjoyed our time here. We had appetizers and drink specials. Hubby had taco boats and I had the loaded burnt end chips which is their version of Irish nachos. They were out of burnt ends though, so I had it with pulled pork. We also tried the bourbon slushy drink specials. Hubby said his bourbon slushy was really good. Mine was ok, but I'm not much for blended iced drinks. Overall it was pretty good. I'd go back again.
