Time tests all of us, especially restaurants. Word-of-mouth can play a significant role in drawing diners to a restaurant, but the test of time? That can mean just as much, if not more, when it comes to winning new customers – and keeping them for years. This BBQ hotspot in Pennsylvania has been dishing up some of the best food in the state for nearly a century.

A single visit to Stookey’s Bar-B-Q in West Nanticoke will likely turn you into a lifelong customer – if you’re not one already.

The unassuming barbecue hotspot has been a Pennsylvania favorite since 1926. However, in those early days, Margaret and Ralph Stookey made and served their famous barbecue from a roadside stand that doubled as their home.

Today, the barbecue joint remains in the family, run by the third generation of Stookeys and it’s still as popular and as good as ever.
