19 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Saint Charles

“The absolute best brisket anywhere in the St. Louis metro area. Big Woody's is the standard all others are measured against.“

“On Saturday, My husband and I got the big muddy and I could not finish but oh was it so so good!! Worth every penny! Look at the pic I uploaded. It's delicious looking and tasting. The sausage was amazing with the brisket! I had the potato salad for a side. I had to remove the bun on order to get through the meat on my sandwich. The sodas are different than what you see at other places and we tried a few flavors, all very good. My husband ate his sandwich no problem and he had house fries as a side. We both really enjoyed it. The customer service was exceptional and it was very quick and we had our food fast and fresh. Next time, we want to try the ribs! Thank you for a great experience!“

“Very good food and drinks“

“I am an Office Manager at a construction company, and one of my jobs is to plan and coordinate events. We had our company Christmas Party which was held at Moonshine Blues Bar. I posted on the "What's Happening in St. Charles?" Facebook page looking for recommendations on venues for a group of 50 looking to let loose, have good food and drinks, and have fun. Laura reached out informing us that Moonshine Blues Bar was exactly what I was looking for. And she was so right.

First and foremost, a huge thank you to the bartenders, Megan and Jen. They were absolutely AMAZING! Their energy, professionalism, and ability to keep everything running smoothly really made the event feel special. Not to mention, they were so friendly and personable, making sure everyone had exactly what they wanted. They truly went above and beyond.

The food was nothing short of phenomenal. We’re so grateful for all the hard work that went into it. There was a bit of a hiccup with the food (my fault). However, we’re extremely thankful for how Laura handled everything, with Megan's assistance. The food turned out to be delicious, and we couldn’t have asked for a better spread. They truly went the extra mile to ensure we had an amazing experience.

I also have to shout out the Brad Alan Band. Laura ALSO helped me with booking the band, she gave me her best recommendations, contact information, and helped with coordinating with them. They played great music, set the tone for the night, and allowed us to converse while listening to their amazing talents. I'd recommend them to anybody, and I'm SO thankful Laura helped point me in their direction.

We are already looking forward to next year’s event and, without a doubt, we plan to make this an annual tradition, whether it’s for Christmas or even just a casual group gathering. The guys had an absolute blast and are still raving about it today—“

“I ordered the Pop's Plate to serve my family on Christmas. The food was incredible. I have to admit I was a little afraid to reheat the meat (as they were closed on Christmas Eve) but the heating directions were PERFECT! It was the easiest Christmas meal ever. Thank you Heavy Smoke BBQ !“

“I have missed the Schlotzsky’s we had at home and was so happy to find one here in St. Louis, my all-time favorite“

“I have been a customer of Salt N Smoke for the past 4 years and always have had a wonderful experience, however this recent time with a nightmare to say the least... I ordered on 1/12/2022 around 8:45 PM via a Call-In on a Debit Card. What I ordered was (2) Bestie 2 Combos, one with Sweet Ribs and Smoked Wings sides were Sweet Potato Chips and Mac n Cheese, the 2nd Bestie 2 Combie was Ribs, Smoked wings and for the sides it was the Fries and the Mac N Cheese. Total for the Order was $41.72 Charged to VISA Debit Card Ending In (4360) I recently moved away to Iowa in the past 1 year so anytime I come into town in Saint Charles to see my parents which is often I always get Salt N Smoke in Saint Charles, MO I wish I could get it from Delmar if it was closer because I have never had a bad experience at that location ever, however Saint Charles is a different story. When I got to my parents I noticed all of the food was cold, not even slightly warm, I was really confused on how that was possible because I arrived at Salt N Smoke in Saint Charles before my order was finished. I ended up warming up both dinners because I did not want to waste food but still could not get myself to finish the meal mainly because there was something very wrong with the chicken almost like it was spoiled, my girlfriend was trying to be polite and ate everything to her regret, 1 day later she told me she had the worse stomach pain she has ever felt and it was so bad where we had to rush her to the E.R Hospital at Great River Health Center in Fort Madison, IA where we currently reside. After waiting 2 hours, doing blood tests and urine samples the doctor came to the conclusion that my girlfriend had gotten "Gastritis" which is a bad stomach inflammation which the doctor recommended it was caused from the poultry at the BBQ place she ate which was Salt N Smoke on Saint Charles... Tried to write them via Email no response, they will be hearing from my attorney.“
