Edley's does not get much attention in STL possibly due to a plethora of BBQ restaurants. However,…read moreit could be favorably compared to a local chain, Sugarfire, that does get much recognition for its meat, variety and well done menu. The holy trinity of local BBQ is brisket, pulled pork, and ribs. Edley's has another local favorite -- pork steaks. It also has smoked turkey, chicken, and ham. I decided to try the chicken sandwich because poultry is more challenging for many wanna be pit masters. It had a distinctive smoke ring and included both white and dark meats for flavor. Served Southern style, it included a dollop of vinegar slaw and dill pickles. The lunch special was a good value and included a side and soft drink. Brisket tacos satisfied a companion.

3.8/5! The value for money spent is fantastic. With a tip & taxes, we paid around $45 and had…read moreenough for each of us for lunch + a whole take out box for dinner. I really enjoyed the way the menu was laid out, it made ordering super easy. The staff was incredibly kind throughout the whole visit, and cleanliness was a clear priority. Love the excel brand sodas and the cherry on top was the banana pudding (5/5 dessert). I did find the pork to be a bit dry, but the sauce on the table was fantastic so I loaded that on there as well as some of the cornbread served with the platters and it was yum!

I tried Sugarfire tonight and it was enjoyable!…read more Ordering was super easy and the young man behind the counter taking our order smiled, was very friendly. Everyone behind the counter smiled at my father and I, which was so welcoming! The man that took our payment was also friendly. I ordered the turkey plate with baked beans and French fries. My father ordered the brisket, baked beans and asked for unsalted fries. He raved about his brisket being tender and the fries actually tasting like potato. We absolutely dislike salt so we appreciated the unsalted fries. I don't normally order baked beans but didn't want any other sides listed on the menu -- beans did not disappoint! So flavorful and not overly sweet. Super yum! I agree the fries are very good. And the turkey, so tender. I think the only thing is that I am not used to eating room temperature meat. The first bite was warm and then the rest of the turkey was not, losing a little flavor. But honestly, the BBQ sauces are excellent & still worth it. :) I would definitely recommend the root beer! It's like that old school, make ya hiccup kinda flavor -- it's stronger than any root beer I've ever had. It's amazing! Even my dad loved it. I just don't think they make root beer like that anymore. I'm impressed! Overall, the place was clean and the staff were actually cleaning all around us as there weren't many patrons present. The music isn't blaring, which I really like. It's a must chiller ambiance than I thought it would be and I do love the whole counter ordering, set yourself concept. The art on the wall is cool too! Overall, I'd recommend Sugarfire. And I will definitely go back and try more menu items, even the turkey again. Friendly staff, tasty food & drinks, chill atmosphere & very clean. Well done, Sugarfire. Cheers to you & your wonderful staff! Thank you so much.

Anything that tastes a little bit more time to prepare they will bring out to you on the floor. Keeps things flowing very well. I got the four bones (baby backs), broccoli salad (premium side, one dollar up charge), and coleslaw. I also grabbed a piece of sweet cornbread with honey butter, and fried green tomatoes with a lemon aïoli. The bones were not rendered as much as I would've liked, the fat layers were still too thick. But the flavor was good. And every table has six different sauces and you can have as much sauce as you want. I tried them all, and my personal favorites were the Carolina mustard, and the Texas hot sauce. The white barbecue was also very interesting. But they're all good. Fried green tomatoes were terrific! Broccoli salad and the coleslaw were pretty tasteless. As was the cornbread. Really wouldn't describe that as sweet cornbread. It seemed a mostly just wheat flour cornbread. The honey butter on its own was really the best side. I'm not unhappy that I came here, but would I seek it out again or try something else in the area? I would try something else in the area. And for that reason I am leaning toward 3 starts. Although the staff is terrific and really hustles here, and that is why I have to bump this up to four stars.
