If anyone is traveling thru E. MO. ( I-44) between Springfeild and St. Louis there is a place on ol' Rt. 66 in Cuba,Mo. called Missouri Hick. It's a "log cabin" style smoked / BBQ smoked meat place. Great food andstaff. There is a "front porch" and upstairs balcony if you want to eat outside. They have dish called the Sampler Platter --- pulled pork,pulled beef , 4 or so ribs plus two sides for about 9 bucks. They also have 1/4 , 1/2 and a whole slab of ribs plus two sides dinners. Opens at 11 AM, I believe they are closed on Mondays.They do the smokin' right there in back and have 4 different homemade sauces to try...
