Barbecue Wentzville MO trusts

Smoke, sides & a seat at the bar

Old Town Smokehouse is a locally owned BBQ restaurant and bar in historic downtown Wentzville. We smoke brisket, ribs, pulled pork, turkey, pork belly and St. Louis pork steaks in-house, in limited batches, so what lands on your plate came off the smoker today.

  • Meats smoked fresh daily — some items sell out
  • Scratch-made sides: mac & cheese, cheesy cream corn, baked beans, collards
  • Handcrafted cocktails & a deep bourbon list
  • Walk-ins welcome; call ahead for large groups

Bourbon bar Wentzville

Handcrafted cocktails & a bourbon shelf worth the trip

Our bar is the part of Old Town Smokehouse other BBQ joints don't have. Try the Smokehouse Old Fashion — pork belly-infused whiskey, orange-maple syrup and bitters, smoked to order — or our Barrel Aged Manhattan, rested in a barrel in-house until it turns silky.

We're proud members of the St. Charles Bourbon Society, and the shelf runs from Buffalo Trace to Blanton's, E.H. Taylor and Blood Oath.

Must be 21+ to order alcohol. Please drink responsibly.
