Really hungry for a hearty meal that will just hit the spot and leave you stuffed and happy? Barbecue just might do the trick. We’re lucky to have plenty of restaurants that serve authentic, finger-licking good barbecue in Missouri. Big R’s BBQ, for example, boasts a delicious menu with a few of its plates piled so high, you might have to crank your neck to look up. (Okay, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration.)
Unfortunately since publication, Big R’s BBQ has since closed. However, Big R’s Pies is now in its place!
Tucked in Joplin, Big R’s BBQ bills itself as serving meat that simply can’t be beat, but you’ll really have to judge for yourself.
