This is the best BBQ in town as far as I’m concerned. Everything I tried was amazing. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the BBQ sauce was terrific. The sides were also fantastic; I highly recommend the pea salad, potato salad, and pit beans. The sampler is a great deal and easily feeds six large adult men after a day of labor. If you’re tired of everything tasting the same, like it’s off the same delivery truck, then go to Heady’s for unique and spectacular BBQ.
For Father's Day, the Hillbilly decided on BBQ. And since one of my favorites in Springfield was closed, we drove to Republic to get Heady's BBQ.
Since it was Sunday, they only had the brunch menu, which was a little disappointing. But the food we did get was very good. A nice BBQ joint for a suburb of Springfield.

Another positive (which we rarely mention): they had the BEST soda mix for their Coke products! Diet Coke rivaled McDonald's (if you know, you know)!
Atmosphere is just average but the smell walking in is SO GOOD!
We'll definitely be back!
