But what really makes them stand out is who they are beyond the food. They consistently show up for their community and surrounding communities in both the good times and the hard times, and that says everything about the owners of the business, Bob and Holly Mannecke. Florissant is so lucky to have a place like this and although I have moved across the river, I make sure to stop in every time I am in the area -- because it's truly that good!

Let me just say--the pork steak was hands down the most tender I've had in Missouri. Everything we…read moreordered was absolutely delicious. We tried the smoked wings, pulled pork sandwich, those huge buttery baked potatoes, and the pork steaks... every single item was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars is because one of my items--a burger--was missing from my order. It was a small hiccup in what was otherwise an amazing experience. I also love that this establishment gives back to the community, which makes supporting them even better. Great food, great purpose, and a great vibe--I will definitely be back!

And I'm really disappointed. I normally have great reviews to give to this place and it's not about…read morethe food at all. It's about their hours yesterday I came here and they were open till seven or at least a advertised on the site. They were open till seven and I got here at 6:50 to grab some of their amazing baked beans only to be told by the staff outside that they were closed when the sign in the window said open. I guess no big deal disappointed but I'll come back tomorrow which brings me to today. So now I stand here, looking at the building when the sign says open the hours on Yelp say they're open until five only to find that their doors are locked-so it's not the food that I am disappointed in as I won't get the pleasure of feeding in two days in a row. I'm disappointed that the staff opted to close early. I understand if you run out of meat, but perhaps someone would just like your baked beans as they are so delicious that's what I was looking forward to not to say I wouldn't enjoy some of the ribs and potato salad, but the baked beans are just off the chain. So I ask anyone at Sharp shooters that's reading this review that note what your hours are and hold true to those even if you have to tell me that you're out of ribs or you're out of pulled pork or whatever that looks like allow me to come in and get a drink or some french fries but just straight up be closed before your hours are posted is very disappointing

When you get to a little host to stand, you will place your order there the menu is on the wall next to you. You can get it to go or you can eat inside. They do not have a lot of room inside, but it definitely fit the 6 of us and more. We all got something different to eat, and everything was great. The service was great and they gave us a little extra dessert to try for free. Yes, I think they do use a sweet baby rays barbecue and yes, the rib has a little maybe brown sugar on it but it was awesome. Pork steak has some kind of rub on it, but everyone loved it. Pulled pork sandwich and the tacos were also great. We also love the sides we received with our food. Definitely would go back if in the area.

Every single person in our group raved about how delicious their meal was. The service was outstanding as well. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. The sauces deserve a special mention. The Chipotle Aioli was incredible, and the Jalapeño Carolina sauce was absolutely delicious. Honestly, every sauce we tried was a hit with our group. If you're looking for great barbecue, excellent service, and amazing flavors, this place is definitely worth a visit. We'll absolutely be back soon!

There is a good sized patio out front on the parking lot. The inside also has a fair amount of seating - seats at the bar, high top tables, and regular tables. It was pretty warm, so we dined inside. Our server was Angie and she was great! She was very friendly and spent a few minutes talking to us about menu items. She also checked up on us throughout our time there to make sure everything tasted good, etc. We ordered drinks and then got serious about ordering. So many things sounded really good, but decisions were finally made. We shared loaded tots to start. They were good, but the word "loaded" is a stretch. There should have been more toppings in the tots. I know the photo looks like there's a lot, but there wasn't much cheese sauce, sour cream, or bacon. My husband got the smoked wings and said they were really good! I got two tacos - one brisket and one bbq shrimp. They were okay. The shrimp taco was pretty good, but it had a little too much sauce on the shrimp and it overpowered the other flavors. The brisket was extremely dry. We'll more than likely be back!

Mr. J's BBQ is a BBQ stand on the NE corner of The Kirkwood Farmers Market…read more You can find him there on Thursday and Saturday. He serves great St. Louis backyard style BBQ prepared in a couple barrel pits. He prepares several meats every day he is there and has a number of sides. Today I tried his ribs, his brisket, his pulled chicken, and chicken thigh. All had good smoke flavor and were well cooked and seasoned. I really enjoyed the chicken thigh and the ribs. Don't get me wrong the other items were good, but I enjoyed those 2 the most. I'm not a fan of pulled chicken, I've noted that previously, but Mr. J's pulled chicken was right good. He puts a little of his se'lah gold sauce with it and some sautéed peppers and onions. That makes for good flavor. The reason for the 4 not 5 stars is minor. I had several slices of brisket on my plates and the first slice I picked up while nicely smokey and well seasoned was tough. However, every other slice was perfectly tender indicating a proper cook. I only tried his Se'lah Original Sauce. But let me tell you he has a wonderful quintessential St. Louis style BBQ sauce in that. Man is it good. I get to KFM often during the summer. I'll be back by for sure. Y'all enjoy!!

The ribs were perfectly smoked using on site smokers. The ribs were very, very tender. I didn't count the number of ribs on my rib plate but it was very generous compared to a sit-down restaurant.

The pros: -The variety of sauces were delicious -The brisket was moist and had food flavor -The Mac and cheese had fantastic flavor -The plate was served with pickles and onions, which I haven't seen since I left the south -Great value! The cons: -the pulled pork was dry -The Mac and cheese was super saucy -not a big variety What I sampled was delicious, and I'll keep up with the Southerner to try more food (I have my eye on the chicken and waffles on a stick).

Walking through the office today I caught the smell of delicious smoked goodness and instantly wanted some for myself. I can't tell you how happy I was to find that the aroma that caused me to lose track of my engineering responsibilities was located directly outside the front door to the building. This was my 2nd time to get a mouth watering BBQ sandwich from The Southerner. The folks running the truck are always more than helpful and provide a meal that's a good value proposition. Quality, quantity and price seem to be well balanced. Albeit a tad bit on the expensive side. Look to spend about $12 for a sandwich and side. The turkey, brisket and sausage are all great. The brisket is pulled not sliced or chopped. It makes for a great tasting sandwich that doesn't need much sauce at all. Although the sauce is pretty darn good they get 5 stars for not needing it.

Pulled pork: 3.5/5 - decent but not amazing. Seasoned fries: 2/5 - underwhelming. Slaw: 0/5 - tasted old, couldn't eat it. My take: I love BBQ and wanted to love this place. The pork was fine, but slaw tasting old is a real issue. Sides need to be fresh, and that one detail makes me question the kitchen's consistency. Maybe it was an off night. I'll probably give it one more shot during lunch when turnover is higher. If it's still off, there are too many good BBQ spots around St. Charles to settle.
