St. Louis BBQ strikes again. This place was not good, from a food standpoint at least,…read more I walked in just before noon and there was no line. Red flag? You order at the counter, which was easy, and then pay at the end of the line. The cashier was super helpful and offered recommendations on sauces and offered pickles or jalapeños for my To Go order. I ordered the Big Muddy sandwich which came with brisket, sausage, lettuce and pickles. It was also supposed to have horseradish and bbq sauce, but it did not. Maybe because it was To Go? The brisket was sliced right in front of me, but it was bad. It looked tender, but it was supper fatty and could handle be chewed. I spit most of it out. The problem was probably a bad cut of meat and not the smoking, but they still served it to me. The sausage was great, but only had a couple of little slices. I added some of the sweet sauce which was very good. I chose the beans for my side. Fine, but nothing special. A little dry, so I added sauce to help it go down. Then they had some local soda option, so I passed on an overpriced drink. It looks like there are more local options in the area, I would try somewhere else if ever back in this area.

Once again amazing BBQ. They recently received the award for…read morebest BBQ in St Charles and it's totally deserved. Since I'm from Texas my go to is brisket. Moist and delicious. Also got smoked Chicken which is done to perfection. If you've never been and just want a sandwich I absolutely recommend the Hillbilly Philly!

Big Woody's is worth a visit! I love a small BBQ spot, and I was not disappointed with my…read moreexperience. I enjoyed a brisket sandwich with a line of tasty sauces to sample (I'm a dipper), along with a side of (Woody-recommended) green beans. They have a selection of local pure cane sodas (Excel), and enough seating for yourself and a few friends. Woody was super nice and helpful behind the counter. Loved it, and I'll be going back.

Heavy Smoke BBQ is truly a standout spot in St. Peters. The restaurant is much larger than it looks…read moreon the outside and is great for meeting with just a friend or a large group. I must say that the prices are more than reasonable for the amount of food you get. I tried the pulled pork and pulled chicken, both tender and flavorful. The sides deserve their own spotlight--potato salad is my personal favorite, the baked beans and coleslaw hit all the right notes. My brother ordered the burnt ends. Those were another highlight--smoky, rich, and perfectly cooked. They were sold out of brisket when we visited (which says a lot about how good it must be), but that just gives us a reason to come back soon. If you're looking for great BBQ with big flavor and a welcoming vibe, Heavy Smoke is the place. 5/5!

Service was great and everyone was friendly and helpful. Now to the food, the gumbo, estoufee and boudin balls were all just ok. The corn, green beans and okra were good but nothing spectacular. I absolutely loved the pit beans, mac and cheese, smoked chicken, pulled pork and the Cuban sandwich. The red beans and rice as well as the brisket were also good. My family loved the hushpuppies. They had lots of beer/wine options. Desserts also sounded great but we didnt have room to try.

I enjoyed their turkey melt. It was simple. Not over complicated. Not overly flavorful either. It wasn't bad, but it didn't send my taste buds into a chasm of mesquite as i had hoped. The service was good. But, not in a well manicured way. More of a this is very informal dining and holler if ya need me way. Very polite, unpolished, and taken care of. But, it didn't feel like hospitality in the formal sense you imagine when thinking of a sit down dinner. I hope that doesn't come off as a knock or jest. I intend it to be perceived much more as ambivalent. Anyways, no rush to get back, but if my friends wanna go, ill oblige

Access was only by an exterior set of stairs. There was an elevator, but it was out of service. If…read moremy wife had been with me, we wouldn't have even gone inside. The staff were friendly and food delivery was reasonably quick. The burnt ends did not "melt" in my mouth like a proper burnt end should. They were fibrous and took a bit of chewing. They were also too sweet, so the meat's natural flavor was masked. The sausage was just OK, nothing special to look forward to. The potato salad was overly mustard based and unenjoyable. Two bites were all I could stand. The baked beans with pulled pork were very good. They could have better if they were more savory and less sweet. If I hadn't just visited family in Austin, TX, perhaps I would've been more favorable to Hendricks. Instead, I had recent reminders of how far they fell short of even average Texas BBQ, let alone Terry Black's. I'm not planning on returning.

I split a full rack with mom for my most recent birthday meal and I was not disappointed! Naturally, we each had plenty of leftovers. The ribs came out with that perfect dark, smoky bark that's packed with flavor. The meat underneath was oh so tender. For one side, I went with applesauce - a classic. Appropriately chilled, it was a nice, fresh component to a largely roll-me-out-the-door meal. It was topped with a very confident amount of cinnamon. Heavy-handed for my taste, but if cinnamon is your jam, you'll be thrilled. The baked beans, however, came in hot. And I don't mean temperature; I mean with a spicy surprise. The sweetness of the applesauce cut down the bite of the heat, but I longed for milk to put out the little fire on my tongue. I have a low threshold for spicy food, so you may be quite alright with it, but it was a surprise to me. Pappy's is, hands down, my go-to BBQ spot. First enamored by the location nearest downtown, and thoroughly thrilled when they arrived in my city.

The potato salad was dry and pasty. The baked beans were much too spicy. Their service was very fast but it was a workarant. You had to order sit and they delivered it to you.

Taco Tuesday at BobaQue in New Town Saint Charles did NOT disappoint…read more The $2 tequila and $2 jerk chicken tacos were absolute FIRE. The tacos had this incredible balance of flavors, spicy TENDER chicken with jerk seasoning & sweet pineapple mixed in, and whatever else they put in there just made them insanely flavorful. The ambience is really cute, the place is SO clean, and it was great getting to see the owner Chris who is always so sweet. If you're in New Town Saint Charles MO and looking for a fun Taco Tuesday spot, this one is definitely worth checking out.

The atmosphere and overall ambiance were great, making it a fun place to spend an evening. As for the food, the barbecue hamburger was amazingly delicious and definitely the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with the Blueberry Lemon Drop cocktail, as it didn't quite meet my expectations. The wait for food was a bit longer than I would have liked, but in fairness, the place was packed and there were a lot of guests ordering food at the same time. The staff seemed to be doing their best to keep up with the crowd. My only real concern is that the venue feels a little too small for patio concerts featuring artists with a strong local following. It can get crowded quickly, which affects the overall experience. That said, now that I know what to expect, I would absolutely return for both the food and future patio concerts. Overall, a fun venue with great food, good vibes, and live entertainment that's worth checking out.

I ordered a 2-meat platter with burnt ends that were phenomenal and the smoked habanero turkey that was moist and delicious and the spicy BBQ sauce adding a nice little zing. I was a little disappointed that the place didn't offer cornbread or Texas toast with the platter and I didn't think to ask until after I got my food. Sides were good and I thought the baked beans were very good but the Mac n Cheese was a little too cheese-whizzy for me and wasn't too crazy about it but will get potato salad next time. Also I'll try their brisket on the next visit l since that's my measure of truly great Texas style BBQ. It's kind of an odd setup for a restaurant since it's inside a service station but it's a really nice service station and the restaurants decor is pretty nice. I'd give it 4.5 stars if they allowed it, but will go with 5 stars for now.

I ordered takeout online for the first time- super easy process…read more The food was delicious. I got the half a rack of ribs with the sweet BBQ, thick, flavorful and perfectly cooked. The baked beans were yummy, the coleslaw was average, and the potato salad was yummy but not memorable. The downside was the staff. While I waited, they were eating and not very business place. I also tried the drive thru, but waited for about 10 minutes with no response, so I went inside. Great food, but the overall experience definitely could use some improvement.
