This place has lines out the door everyday. They cook a set amount of food everyday and once it is gone it is gone. People leave everyday without food, but it is so good THEY COME BACK to try again!

I came all the way from Los Angeles to try this place and was not disappointed. They only make a certain amount of food everyday so they do sell out. The ribs were incredibly tender and just fell off the bone. The brisket was also very good. I preferred the sweet sauce the best. Too bad I don't live in the area but if i ever get back here I will be going here again.

Absolutetly Amazing

The Executive Chef told me "these ribs a gonna change your life" and it was no hyberbole. The ribs at Pappys are unreal; perfect balance of sweet and smokey. The have a beautiful crisp outside and tender, fall off the bone interior. Unfortunately we weren't able to try the brisket or burnt ends because they were sold out. If you're in St. Louis you need to get yourself to Pappys.

Catering Department - Great Experience So Far

My daughter is getting married next summer. We met with the caterer at Pappy's BBQ. She was very nice and had some great suggestions. Looking forward to working with this establishment over the next several months.
