Try the Barbecue That Branson Talks About

At Full Throttle, smoked meat is serious business. Everything is prepared in-house with attention to detail and flavor. Local favorites include the sliced brisket, burnt ends, and smoked turkey breast.

Dining with a crew? Order the Family Fire-Up Platter, loaded with ribs, chicken, and pulled pork—plenty to go around. Don’t forget to sample the house sauces like Blackberry Moonshine BBQ.

Burgers and Sandwiches with Big Flavor

The BBQ Boss Burger stacks brisket, pulled pork, cheddar, and crispy onion straws on a brioche bun. Other standouts include the Prime Rib Philly and the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich, served on a toasted cornbread bun.

All come with fries or fruit, and trust us, these plates don’t skimp on size.

For those looking for something on the fresher side, try the Smokehouse Cobb Salad with smoked turkey, avocado, and cheddar. You can also add grilled salmon or chicken to a Caesar or House Salad for a protein-packed option.
