The SceneThis place is takeout only, but since barbecue can be messy, it's best to eat your ribs in the privacy of your own home with those who'll forgive a little sauce smeared on your face. Don't let the appearance of the waiting area deter you from placing your order.The FoodOn the counter, a sign reads, "The secret's in the sauce," a claim that goes back to 1963, when C&K first opened. Whatever's in the sauce is good--it's spicy, not overly sweet. Chicken, beef and ribs make up the main categories of the menu, and you can order smaller portions than whole chickens and whole rib sides. Your…
Tender meat, Good Service, Quality Food, Nice Family

C&K has good business fast service. They have a sign up that says, Will gladly take your order after your phone conversation. Have your money ready when you get to the window if it's crowded. And they can get crowded but a third person shows up from the back and quickly unfolds the crowds. While you wait, take a look at the posters of their accomplishments and awards in the BBQ business. It's a family business that has built a tradition in St. Louis. I recommend anyone to go there. The sweet potato pies are to die for!!!!!!
- Pros: Always Good food and service
- Cons: Carry out only!! And they do take call ins all day!
BBQ to the MAX!!!
by Budtrk
The rib tips at C K are the BEST I have found anywhere. The value for the money is excellent. The snoots are exquisite. The sauce here is different than any sauce I have ever tasted. Kansas City and Memphis, you have nothing on St. Louis when it comes to BBQ. You gotta try this, it's great!
- Pros: Sauce, Snoots, Tips are the best
- Cons: Can't think of any
Can this really be called Barbecue?
by bjman71
I can honestly say that other than the fact that their so called BBQ swims in Barbecue sauce, there really is nothing about this place that is BBQ. I don't know if they smoke their meat or not, but it tasted and the texture sure looked and tasted as if they had simply simmered the meat in BBQ sauce. This is not good barbecue.
