St. Louis BBQ | Sugarfire Smoke House | Pappy’s Smokehouse

We tried the two most popular barbecue joints in St. Louis, Pappy’s Smokehouse and Sugarfire Smoke House.
At Sugarfire, we tried the baby back pork ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and their homemade sugar pie for dessert.
Next stop, Pappy’s Smokehouse to try out their BBQ. We ordered up a full rack of pork ribs and brisket along with their special deep fried corn on the cob!
Both places deserve their mark in the Best Barbecue in STL! We gave our personal preference which is in this vlog. Bottom line, you can’t go wrong with either place.
St. Louis, thank you for some great BBQ!

We ate Sugarfire in October and it was FABULOUS! So delicious! The meat was juicy and tender, and the sides were great. I'm really craving some Sugarfire BBQ! Hope to one day come back and have more.

[@billandlisa]

Looks bomb! Can’t wait till next week!

[@joanne6086]

Bill & Lisa, you are killing me with all this great food..how wonderful to go to different states and try all they have to offer. We are lucky to experience it with you. Thank you!💕

[@billandlisa]

Joanne You’re very welcome, Joanne! We still have to check out the Carolinas for their bbq!

[@FoodFiend]

Wow, looks amazing. You guys live the good life!

[@claysteezy]

Midwest genius

[@Joeschroederdailypay]

Pappa’s BBQ looked rediculously good 😎😆😆😎

[@billandlisa]

Both places were so good!

[@iluvsooubway8008]

I went there while I was in Saint Louis and they had really good smoked wings

[@margejohnson2987]

I really appreciate that you try the BBQ without any sauce first. And if I am not mistaking, white sauce is a Alabama thing that is usually goes with the smoked bbq chicken. I am so happy you are enjoying the Mid-west, looking forward to your travels and eats in Detroit.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Marge!

[@applebomb4091]

That cornbread and sugar pie 🥧 looks delicious.

[@billandlisa]

The baked beans and cornbread were so good together! Loved that sugar pie too!

[@austinstitzel]

I'm gonna guess that they just had regular hand cut fries at Pappy's Smokehouse

[@mindyweller1451]

Alabama white sauce has vinegar in it. I love Sugarfire and their dry rubs. The white sauce is awesome sauce👍. Hope u enjoyed ur fun in St. Louis and with the Cardinals!

[@austinstitzel]

That looks delicious!

[@aliciabratton3832]

Found y'all and been binge watching. I'm from Alabama and the white sauce is an Alabama original from Big Bob Gibsons in Decatur! I now live in Memphis and saw where y'all ate at Central. Its one of my favorites, as I like the dry rub chicken wings. We also have a Hattie B's now, and its right by where I get my hair cut (convenient). Love your content!

[@BrentsBistro]

We were there in Sept 2017. Great bbq and city! Pharaohs Donuts also awesome.

[@Fantasy23Legend]

As a Kansas City native, Pappy's is not better than my top 4 joints in KC. One thing I regret is I never remember what I like and dislike about certain places. I need to start a vlog lol. I have not tried Sugarfire, but it does look pretty good.

[@mauimom1246]

That made me hungry! Now I'll be craving BBQ all night, lol.

[@yvonneacosta2539]

OMG!!! Want some BBQ now. Glad I ate before viewing. I'm salivating. Need to try some of that BBQ, cornbread, corn and sugar pie. The pie reminds me of/looks like sweet potato pie. My new mantra "eat before watching, eat before watching". Next up, Detroit.

[@billandlisa]

Yvonne Acosta LOL Yvonne! That sugar pie was surprisingly good!

[@mariacarpenter2206]

Sugarfire is my family's favorite. We prefer them over the other BBQ places in St. Louis.

[@karenglaicar5486]

Great video. Lisa you made the ribs and beans look so good to gether.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Karen! It was a great combo!

[@izettaspinazze1870]

Oh my those look amazing 😉

[@amramr-wy5eb]

Time to save for US trip, food looks delicious

[@neilyaremchuk6798]

White Sauce is usually an Alabama style sauce used on chicken.

[@susanahurtado2000]

Looks delicious!!!😃

[@lucindasc949]

Awesome BBQ video 🎊🎊🍻🥩

[@JScott-pt6hm]

I want BBQ!!!! Lol

[@aneurisvasquez]

Once you’ve tried franklins bbq and little ms bbq every other bbq spot won’t hit the same, they’re spoiled now

[@Fantasy23Legend]

One day.....One day lol. Franklin's is on my bucket list

[@vondafallis8792]

OMG LOOKS SO GOOD

[@austinstitzel]

I'm gonna guess that Bill is a Scorpio and Lisa is a Pisces

[@ginapearson3601]

Lol, how hard was it for you to call deep fried corn a veggie? Hehe 🤣 looked great.

[@NancysNibblesofLife]

My germ meter is going off. Touching that bottle then eating with hands. I’m sure they wipe those bottles though. Probably wouldn’t stop me from chowing down though. Love to you two. The first place looked tastier cause of the cornbread.

[@billandlisa]

We saw the table staff wiping the bottles and tops when cleaning the table for the next guests. That cornbread with the baked beans were meant for each other! lol

[@NancysNibblesofLife]

Bill & Lisa's food and travel vlog I’m glad to hear that. They seem like pros so I’m not surprised.

[@barbarakuntz637]

I prefer Sugarfire over Pappy’s & I knew you both would also after watching all your videos. U need to come back & spend some time eating Italian food on The Hill & trying some Ted Drewes frozen custard!

[@billandlisa]

Yes, several of our viewers mentioned Italian food on the Hill. And, the frozen custard sounds interesting! Something to look forward to on our next trip to STL.

[@thegouger1933]

Kansas City BBQ!?

[@billandlisa]

We have a vlog on it! Search 'Bill Lisa Kansas City'. =)

[@radrew684]

Sugarfire is good but they give you more sides than meat

[@ltd9792]

It would be great if you guys use a microphone in crowded places.

[@billandlisa]

m lc We’re low budget production. We cup out hand over the mic end of our phones to direct it the best we can.

[@klrich222]

Awwww. Would have loved to meet you while you were here. Sugar fire has several locations throughout STL. Pappy's isn't not my favorite. They are a bit to dry and peppery for my taste.

[@billandlisa]

That's one of the things we noticed about Pappy's ribs too; some parts were a bit dry and some were very moist. Think it just boils down to personal taste, there were plenty of Pappy loyals in there, that's for sure. lol

[@josesedillo8713]

I just came out of that place worst bbq ever...
