This BBQ Hotspot In Arkansas Has Been Serving Up Some Of The Best Southern Eats Since 1928
When a restaurant has been around for decades, it’s definitely doing something right. That can certainly be said for McClard’s Bar-B-Q Restaurant. Practically a state icon, it’s been serving up some of the best southern eats since 1928!
Every great success has a story behind it, and McClard’s Bar-B-Q Restaurant in Hot Springs is no exception!
Everything changed for the McClards when a guest, who was unable to pay for his 2-month stay, offered an unusual form of payment – a recipe for "the world's greatest bar-b-q sauce." The McClards accepted the quirky offer, and the rest is history!
Today, McClard’s is a landmark with tons of accolades under its belt, including being voted one of The Travel Channel’s, “Top 10 Bar-B-Q Joints.”
Since day one, the family-run restaurant has stuck to the principles set forth by the original owners, such as using only the best ingredients, buying quality cuts, and never skimping on portions.
