This North County carry-out is soul barbecue at its most authentic: snoot sandwiches, rib tips, and smoked sausage, all dressed in a house sauce St. Louisans grew up on. Closed Tuesdays.

C&K Barbecue: Frequently Asked Questions

What should I order at C&K Barbecue?

Regulars point to Crispy Pork Snoots, Snoot Sandwich, Rib Tips, and Smoked Sausage.

Is C&K Barbecue expensive?

C&K Barbecue is budget-friendly ($).

What kind of barbecue does C&K Barbecue serve?

C&K Barbecue serves St. Louis barbecue. St. Louis barbecue is its own animal, built on the pork steak, the crispy pork snoot, and the St. Louis-cut spare rib, finished with a sweet, sticky, tomato-based sauce. The tradition leans closer to grilling and long backyard smokes than to the all-day pit cooking of Texas, and it carries a deep soul-food lineage on the city's North Side.
