Best BBQ I’ve ever had.
The ribs were just mind-blowing, especially with the Southeast Missouri vinegar sauce on top. The coleslaw was also very good, and the pulled pork sandwich was also solid.
Service was super fast (maybe too fast?), and the restaurant does not accept tips apparently.
I really suggest a stop here for a meal, I could eat those ribs anyday! Good prices also.

BBQ place makes you think meat and bbq sauce. Ordered take out after long drive to eat in hotel. They said ten minutes it took 20. Got no bbq sauce. Ordered blue cheese salad dressing got ranch. Some bbq is great without sauce but they were out of brisket for combo so I got turkey. Turkey was two slices of dry turkey meat. No sauce. All meat tightly wrapped in foil and likely under a heat source – drying out meat. Good flavor just dry.
Three meat combo did not include a plastic fork for turkey?

Food was good, brisket was delicious, ribs was ok but needed cooked longer in my opinion…..pork steak had to much sauce on it but was good, I did not care for the baked beans, baked potatoe was dry even with a lot of butter

Went in the drive thru saw a roach on the wall and tons of dead flies in the window. The teenager at the window was rude and kept scoffing. Kitchen looked absolutely gross and was 3 or 4 people in the back smoking while a big line in drive thru. Wouldn’t recommend

The ribs are the best I have ever had. They have a sweet smoky flavor and the meat is extremely tender and still moist. We also ordered a bbq melt made with the beef brisket. The meat was delicious and tender and flavorful also. We used the drive thru but there is also a welcoming dining room.

We had a 20 min wait for ribs but dang, they were worth the wait. Everything was so fresh and tasty.

Not a bad little place, but not the best food I’ve had. The meat was a little dry. The salt shakers were clogged, so who knows the last time they were cleaned. You basically pay for your meal, get your own drink and find your own seat. The prices were decent, but the food could have been better.
