Cooking from Scratch has some pretty good fried chicken... I also like Missouri Hick BBQ near Cuba, I dont like it for sit down, but I call & pick up a couple racks of ribs on my way back to St. Louis occassionally. Cheers.

I'll have to try that idea.

Cookin' From Scratch has some amazing chicken strips. Best I've EVER had.

I want to say Cookin' from Scratch was on Food Network recently. I think they have a billboard up on 44 about it too.

Missouri Hick does have some good BBQ, we usually stop there after camping at Huzzah Valley.

Roger that! One of the reasons we bought a home in Stockton....albeit a small reason. Makes the 5 hour trek from Omaha a little more worthwhile. My wife doesn't mind a long day on the lake as long as she gets a Bongo's fix. We also like the Boat House on 39 in Stockton. Decent bbq, cold beer.

That Hillbilly Place at Bennett is next to Larry's. I think it is open again but maybe only on weekends. It has gone through several owners. I ate there a couple of times last summer and their BBQ ribs were excellent. I'll second the restaurant at Sand Springs too-great salad bar and soups. Dowd's Catfish House in Lebanon is pretty good also.

I didn't used to be too impressed with the Dining Lodge at Bennett but actually got a very good meal there last year. I decided to take a trout in and have them prepare it. They fixed the trout and served it with the salad bar and choice of three vegatables for $8.95 and it was very good.

My food fix that have to get when I travel up through MO on fishing trips is a Burrito Enchilada Style at Mexican Villa in Springfield.

My finance always said we have to stop there I am from st.louis but I now live in branson . We stoped there it was cheap and very good and its country . Full of old timers telling stories but it was very good. They give you that southern feel and great food made me proud I moved from st louis to the country.

We stopped on our way down to Montauk last Wednesday....The pan fried chicken was perfectly cooked and delicious.
