Named Best Ribs in America by the Food Network & Best BBQ in Missouri by Southern Living
Great food. Good times.
The name of our BBQ joint is a tribute to the late Jim “Pappy” Emerson. He was our brother, uncle, friend and mentor. Pappy kept things simple. He loved the outdoors and he worked hard. When people came to visit, he tried always to provide an atmosphere for great food and good times. A perfect description of Pappy’s Smokehouse today.

The Pappy’s FAMILY.
a local tradition
It all started in 2008 with the opening of Pappy’s Smokehouse. Since then, we have expanded our family and added Bogarts and Dalie’s.
Our flavors range from Memphis stlye BBQ to Louisiana inspired sandwiches. Although our restaurants range in style, our mission stays the same. We aim to provide quality, homestyle food while making every customer feel like family.
It all started when Pappy's opened their midtown location in 2008. Pappy's is known for their nationally acclaimed dry-rubbed ribs. They are slow smoked to juicy perfection over apple and cherry wood for a lightly smoked flavor. Additionally, their menu includes items like pulled pork, smoky beef brisket and burnt ends.
Bogarts Smokehouse opened in 2011 and is located in historic Soulard. Their mission is to create great tasting, high quality BBQ. Their menu includes smoked tri-tip sirloin, pastrami and apricot glazed ribs.
Opened in 2015, Dalie's brings the best St. Louis BBQ to West County. Located in Valley Park, Mo., Dalie's offers the traditional favorites, along with daily specials like Brisket Chili, Creole Wednesday and Smokehouse Chicken and Dumplings. Customers also enjoy special sandwiches including the Vegan Sub, BBQ Ham 'n Cheese, Ultimate Reuben stacked high with two types of pastrami and Cuban Sandwich.
