Bandanas Bar-B-Q

Bandanas Bar-B-Q serves Southern-style barbecue that is dry-rubbed, cooked without sauce over hardwood smoke, and hand-cut to order. Pork, brisket, chicken, and ribs spend hours in real wood smokers, and hickory smoked ribs anchor the menu. Potato salad, cole slaw, and baked beans with smoked meat are made fresh, and the bread is delivered every day.

Guests can dine in, carry out, order delivery, or book catering, and orders can be placed online. Gluten-free menu items are listed, and gift cards are sold. The smokers run around the clock, so the smell of the pit carries well beyond opening time. The Arnold restaurant opened in 1996 as the first location, and the chain now has restaurants across Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky.
