AMAZING food. The brisket melted in your mouth. The pulled pork was great. Was given a sample of the hot wing the wings were just the right hot. And tasted the chili. Omg. Cannot wait to go back. Located behind the Mobil and bp by 94 and 367 light. Will be back soon.

BBQ with options for everyone, burgers and bratwurst too! Sides are very good, coleslaw, baked beans and grilled potatoes. If your on the way north to IL from St. Louis, stop in West Alton on the east side of the highway. BBQ that will not disappoint your tastebuds! Owners are great stewards of their craft and are at the ready to serve you. Nice area with tent and tables, I always ask to still with others to enjoy good food and meeting new people. Seating and area is under the protection of the tent. Address to drive to Dam-It Joe's, 124 Richard Drive, West Alton. Or use the WAZE link I pasted below to get you there! https://waze.com/ul/h9yzv4fqwf

The smokers and food trailer. Everything we tried was delicious.

Driving through we saw a tent and food trailer. The food was so good! The best burnt ends, and best wings and sides (the smoked dices potatoes are to die for not to mention the baked beans and coleslaw). They were pet friendly offering water and bringing a hot dog for our dog.. Everyone is great and the atmosphere inviting. This place is a must if you are in St. Louis.

Great place! From the moment you walk in you get a great vibe, great decor and music, friendly…read morestaff who are always smiling and happy to help, it's refreshing to see. Ordered a 3 meat platter, ribs, burnt ends & brisket, sides were Mac & cheese & twisted fries. Platter took a few minutes to make while we freshened up, got our drinks and found a table. Food was delivered and first off everything looked yummy, everything was also hot which is important to me. Ribs were lightly smoked, had good bark on them & were seasoned well. Burnt ends were delicious and so was the brisket. Platter served with 2 slices of bread & garlic butter, this was a nice touch. Sides were both yummy as well. Tried a few of their specialty sauces and they were delicious as well. Now I may be nit picking here, but they lost a point for how the platters were served, 2 identical platters should be identical. One platter had thick cut brisket, the other thin sliced. One had Mac & cheese with crunchy crumbles, the other no crumbles. Also the ribs were dry, I know with baby back there is not much meat, but these were overdone.

When I moved over to the Riverbend area, I was worried about finding a good BBQ restaurant. After…read moreall, I had so many to choose from living in the city of STL. There it was like finding a Walgreens, there practically was one on every block. After a few misses at other restaurants, I thought I'd give Fire-n-Smoke a try. Actually, I was driving back from STL and my go to in STL was closed due to a water pipe break, so I had no BBQ in the car. When I programmed their address in the GPS, I was shocked how close it was to the intersection of 111 and 255. This was going to be an easy pick-up and back on the road to home. First impressions count and this place was super clean, practicing social distancing and everyone was wearing mask (correctly) and the staff were also wearing gloves on both sides of the counter. Win! Being a first time visitor, I'll admit I went overboard with my order. I ordered way to much food for one person, but I got to sample many things and I divided it up into additional meals. Not only did I have today's lunch, but I also have lunch and dinner for tomorrow. To sample multiple meats, I ordered the Three Meat Platter. I choose; Baby Back Ribs, Burnt Ends and Pulled Pork. The young cashier recommended the pulled pork, she said it was one of their most popular. Out of the three meats, it was my favorite. The ribs had good flavor, but did not totally fall off the bone the way I like it. I had to do some work, to get all the meat off the bone. The Burnt Ends were good, but a little fattier then I am use to. However, I'll give them another try. My platter came with two sides. Everyone raves about the Mac-n-Cheese in the Yelp reviews, so it was a no brainer to choose it. Again, I asked the cashier which other one I should choose and she recommended the Fried Potato Twisters. I didn't want two heavy carbs, so I asked if they did the BBQ Beans in house and she said, yes. I know it's another carb, but it just seemed a better choice. Also, easier to split up into another meal than cold fries. I liked the Mac-n-Cheese. I really appreciated that it was baked and served in its own separate tin dish. Could have had more seasoning for me, but that can be resolved with a pepper shaker and spices from home. The BBQ Beans were pretty standard and had good flavor and lots of brisket pieces in it. In addition to the Three Meat Platter, I ordered 6 Chicken Wings and I'll tell you now, these little babies will be a go to for me. They are smoked over oak before being tossed in the fryer and tossed in the sauce of your choice. I had the Buffalo sauce served on the side for mine. No sauce needed, these little beauties tasted divine, just as they were. Best of all, they also packaged them, 3 flats and 3 drums. If you know me, you know I want the numbers to match. Service was friendly and as stated earlier, they were following CDC guidelines to the max. So glad I finally gave them a try and realized it's only a 12-15 drive from home. Not bad for good BBQ. When: February 20, 2021 Why: Lunch and Searching for a BBQ joint to call my own.
