1. Pappy’s Smokehouse
Pappy’s Smokehouse is a St. Louis classic, and any local worth their salt is sure to refer you to this restaurant. All meat is prepared fresh daily, so be sure to stop by earlier in the day or call ahead to make sure that they don’t sell out.

Available sides include vinegar slaw, baked beans, potato salad, crinkle fries, sweet potato fries, green beans, applesauce, and fried corn.

Bogart’s Smokehouse combines the hometown flavors of Memphis and St. Louis to create incredible brisket, sandwiches, and more.

Put a healthy spin on your barbecue meal by ordering the BBQ salad with smoked onions, pepper cheese, your pick of dressing, and your choice of meat. All rib meals are served with two sides, and our suggestions include the deviled egg potato salad, the sweet and sour slaw, and the spicy pickles. Save big by purchasing a bulk combo with ribs, a pound of any meat, buns, and your choice of sides to feed the family.
