On the Grid : Pappy's Smokehouse

"When the Pappy’s Smokehouse doors open each day at 11am, the line that has formed outside begins to inch in. It moves fast, and serves as a tour of accolades – walls papered with local and national “Best Of’s” and endorsements by stars from Jim Edmonds to Pharrell Williams. No one lines up to see the fan love. They’re there to taste Midwestern BBQ at its finest. Choices of pork, chicken, beef, turkey and sausage are served in large portions, smothering everything from bread to salad. The side dish options are traditional – baked beans, corn and the like – and can be topped off with BBQ sauces ranging from mild to face melting. Be advised, the early bird gets the … pulled pork. All the food is cooked fresh each day – once their out, you’re out of luck." - Manifest
