URBAN LEGENDS BBQ

URBAN LEGENDS BBQ

Signature Snacks and Starters


These are the items people text their friends about. They show up at catering spreads, disappear first, and keep people coming back. Thursday through Sunday only — they go fast.

Pig Shots

Smoked sausage wrapped in bacon, stuffed with cream cheese filling — one of our most asked-about snacks. Available while they last.

Squatch Eggs

A Southern Illinois original — jalapeños stuffed and wrapped, smoked until the outside bites back just enough. Order ahead if you can.

Texas Twinkie

Whole jalapeños stuffed with cream cheese and smoked brisket, wrapped in bacon, and glazed with sweet jalapeño jelly — legendary in every bite.

Chicken Nachos

Loaded nachos topped with smoked chicken, cheese, and everything else — built to be a full meal, not a side dish.

Loaded Fries

Fries stacked with smoked meat and toppings — the kind that require two hands and a stack of napkins.

Our Thursday–Sunday schedule means limited quantities on everything. We sell out regularly — arrive early or call (618) 964-4048 to check availability.
