We built Sugarfire Smoke House® to be different. From the use of local ingredients, to the awesome culinary exploits of our world-trained chefs and pit masters, the barbecue we make is exceptional. We are consistently ranked among the best BBQ restaurants in the nation. We offer traditional favorites like baby back ribs, juicy pulled pork, and the best beef brisket in town. We don’t stop there; our brand of BBQ is unconventional – you'll find house specialties like smoked brisket cheese steak sandwiches, smoked fried artichokes with lemon aioli, pork belly hush puppies with jalapeno jelly, or boozy Chocolate Peanut Butter Bourbon Shakes. Sugarfire Smoke House is smoking the standards for the best BBQ in the world.
The tradition began in September of 1996 when our first Bandana's BAR-B-Q opened in Arnold, Missouri. Our mission remains the same, to provide the best Southern Style BAR-B-Q, with exceptionally quick service, in a friendly, family atmosphere. Our real wood pit smokers operate 24 hours a day, which is why you can "SMELL THAT SMOKE" every time you come to Bandana's BAR-B-Q.
Our meats are hand-rubbed before they go into the smoker. This is how we apply our special Bandana's Dry Rub, which contains over a dozen herbs and spices. This combination requires 11 to 14 hours in the smoker to produce our signature Bandana's BAR-B-Q taste. The BAR-B-Q then goes straight from the smoker and is hand-cut to order.
