Edley's does not get much attention in STL possibly due to a plethora of BBQ restaurants. However,…read moreit could be favorably compared to a local chain, Sugarfire, that does get much recognition for its meat, variety and well done menu. The holy trinity of local BBQ is brisket, pulled pork, and ribs. Edley's has another local favorite -- pork steaks. It also has smoked turkey, chicken, and ham. I decided to try the chicken sandwich because poultry is more challenging for many wanna be pit masters. It had a distinctive smoke ring and included both white and dark meats for flavor. Served Southern style, it included a dollop of vinegar slaw and dill pickles. The lunch special was a good value and included a side and soft drink. Brisket tacos satisfied a companion.

I really enjoyed the way the menu was laid out, it made ordering super easy. The staff was incredibly kind throughout the whole visit, and cleanliness was a clear priority. Love the excel brand sodas and the cherry on top was the banana pudding (5/5 dessert). I did find the pork to be a bit dry, but the sauce on the table was fantastic so I loaded that on there as well as some of the cornbread served with the platters and it was yum!

So, if you have a large group, call ahead to reserve a table. Recommend the Gangnam Style wings. It's simply delicious . It's soy sauce base, slightly sweet and tangy, and somewhat spicy. If you're just driving through call ahead because it takes 15-20 mins to cook because they cook when ordered. Another reason why the food is great here.

The sides were very good--especially the etouffee and baked beans--but the main reason I came was for the barbecue. The baby back ribs were served cold, and for me that's difficult to overlook. Good barbecue starts with the meat, and cold ribs significantly affected the overall experience. Maybe I caught them on an off day, and I'm willing to believe the food is usually better than what I received. However, based on this visit alone, I think the restaurant is a bit overrated. The sides were solid, but cold barbecue keeps me from rating it any higher.

My wife and I have driven past the place 100 times and she finally talked me into trying it out for lunch. WOW. Awesome food. We both had ribs, I went for a double order of spaghetti as my side, the wife went with green beans and yams. The portions were large and came with a cornbread muffin. Ribs were fall off the bone tender and the spaghetti was very good. I am normally not a green bean fan, but I tasted the ones my wife ordered and they were delicious! It looked like small pieces of potato and I don't know what else in them. I never eat yams but these were great. Too sweet for my taste as a side, but I had them for "dessert" after finishing my meal. Tasted more like sweet potato pie than anything and dipping the cornbread muffin in the sauce was sinfully good. EVERYTHING was home made from scratch. We were way too full to try any of the desserts (cakes, peach cobbler, sweet potato pie) but I will sample them next trip. The menu is not large but be sure to ask as there are several items available not listed. I was craving some fried chicken, which I was told was available, but I'd already ordered the ribs. I'm going for the chicken next visit....collard greens were an option (not listed) as well but I am not a fan. My ONLY con would be no butter for the muffin..but it was moist without it and after I figured out how good it tasted dipped in the yam sauce, I would not have used it had it been there !We were totally stuffed for less than $20. We are already planning to head back next week. Give this place a try...you won't regret it!!!
