Missouri is known for having some pretty incredible barbecue , so it should come as no surprise that a couple of popular Show-Me State restaurants were recognized as being some the best barbecue joints in the entire country.
According to a list of the 13 “absolute best” barbecue restaurants in the U.S. compiled by Mashed , Harp Barbecue in Raytown and Bogart’s Smokehouse in St. Louis are definite must-try’s for any BBQ lover. Reviewers praised the brisket, jalapeño sausage and cheesy corn at Harp and the “delicious ribs with yummy sauce” at Bogart’s. Here is what Mashed had to say:
” Harp Barbecue in Raytown, Missouri is certainly the sort of barbecue joint that can surprise you in more ways than one. Not only does the location change depending on where Harp Barbecue is able to pop up that day, but so does their menu. Basically, this is a truly authentic barbecue experience, with a down-home flair and some incredible meats in the lineup (no matter what version of the menu you get on your visit).”
