Did somebody say BBQ? Thad "Little Nick" Denthrif II tells Jake how Little Nick's BBQ was started in St. Louis by his Grandfather in 1953 and was passed down through four generations. Talk about BBQ being in his veins. If smoked meats make you drool a little at the thought of them then you need to head down to Auburn street and get some of this authentic deliciousness in your belly. We know we sure will. 🍗 🤤 🍗
