General Info

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. We take just as much care with our side dishes as we do with our meat. Our Potato Salad and Cole Slaw are hand-made, fresh each day. Our Bar-B-Q Baked Beans are slow-cooked with our special sauce and chunks of smoked meat.The tradition began in September of 1996 when our first Bandana's BAR-B-Q opened in Arnold, Missouri.
