This week on the Sauce podcast, Meera and Michelle discuss a visit to Fourth City Barbecue, which is located inside Fortune Teller Bar on Cherokee Street. The brisket is wonderful, likely due to the 24-hour process it takes to execute, but it’s not all serious business; specials like their take on a McRib offers a break in the usual barbecue suspects.
They also talk about a recent trip to check out the Fattened Caf inside Earthbound Beer across the street where the chicken tocino ube sliders were extraordinary with tropical pineapple flavor, a little spice and sharpness from pickled, shredded papaya.
Finally in the conversation, a First Look at Bacaro, the new aperitivo bar in St. Peters, along with a lineup of where to find great fat-washed cocktails in St. Louis.
