Not sure where you're coming from, but regardless, Patti's 1880's settlement is worth the extra hour it might take added to your trip. 2" pork chop was amazing.

 

Never been to Patti's because of the wait, but everyone I know from WKY says it's excellent.

You have to call for reservations. You can even do them online now

I get it every time

If folks are coming west to see their teams take on Tilghman, McCracken or Mayfield and they are staying the night, you might take a Saturday trip another hour west to Sikeston, MO to Lambert's. Lambert's is what Cracker Barrel wishes it could be. Just follow US 60 west to the KY/IL/MO border about 30 miles through Ballard Co. and then another 30 miles or so to Sikeston.

Is that the place they throw the rolls?

 

I vote for Patti's 1880 and I am from Northern Kentucky but visited the establishment many a time, when my Daughter attended Murray State University!

 

BTW we always called and made Reservation Link

Yes, home of the thrown rolls at Lamberts

Lamberts would be a heck of a haul. Good food, but you will also be waiting a couple hours to be seated. Coming from Monroe County you will probably take the WK to 24 which will take you by Patti's. Not sure if they have up their Christmas decorations yet, but that is always cool as well.

Yes, they have the decorations up.

The Pork Peddler on 8th street, not far from where the old Exec Inn was. Buffett. Ummmmmmmmm good! Stop there every chance I get when back down that way. There's also a little BBQ shack just past the mall on the left going towards the stadium...the name escapes me. Not a fancy place, just good simple bbq.

Backwoods BBQ?

Backwoods BBQ?

 

That sounds right. Simple place for sure, but I have enjoyed the bbq the two or three times I have stopped there to eat.
