Looking For Variety? Wobbly Boots Roadhouse's Menu Has Got It!

When someone mentions Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Osage Beach, more than likely the first thought that comes to mind is our irresistible hickory-smoked BBQ at the Lake of the Ozarks. That's awesome, as long as you also realize that the Boot's got a LOT more to offer than just that award-winning BBQ. 

They say "variety is the spice of life" and baby, the Boot's got it! Dine with us and you're bound to find something to satisfy every diner at your table. 

Award-Winning BBQ

To better explain the extensive variety offered at our BBQ restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks, we'll go ahead and start with the obvious. BBQ at the Boot is a popular choice for diners in the lake area due to the hybrid-style of cooking we've cultivated to create all of those hickory-smoked flavors everyone loves! This style was inspired by the BBQ meccas of the U.S.A. - Kansas City, St. Louis, Memphis, and Texas. 

The Boot's creative chefs combined our favorite parts of each of those styles to bring you the hickory-smoked goodness people can't seem to get enough of! Combined with our house recipe BBQ sauce, the taste sensation is truly tough to beat! 

Soup, Sandwiches, & Burgers

We offer a different Soup of the Day each day but every single day you can order our famous Baked Potato Soup. (It's pretty popular around here!) You can enjoy those as a soup/sandwich or soup/salad combo or add a cup to any meal as an upgraded side dish. 

If you'd like to upgrade your sandwich, we've got quite a few choices for you there too, with both BBQ and non-BBQ options! In the Sandwiches & Wraps portion of the menu, you'll find tasty treats like the Crusty Cuban, Hand-Breaded Pork Tenderloin, 
Prime Rib French Dip, Texas Style Club, and our Salmon BLT. 

As for our Black Angus Burgers, each one is made with a special blend of Black Angus chuck, brisket, and short rib cooked on a flat-iron grill. There are 7 different burgers to choose from daily and be sure to ask about our additional Burger of the Week when you come in too.  

Great-Tasting Greens

When you're trying to add more vegetables to your diet, the salads at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse are exactly what you need. Full of fresh, healthy ingredients like mixed greens, tomatoes, avocado, and more, they are filling and satisfying. 

As an added bonus, you don't have to miss out on those hickory-smoked meats when you go the salad route. Most of our salads have a great big, heaping helping of them as one of the main ingredients!  

Savory Seafood

Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp is one of our most popular appetizers plus they pair perfectly with all of our steak dinners. You'll also find lots of other delicious seafood choices throughout the best menu at the Lake of the Ozarks. Some of these choices include a fried Catfish Dinner, Brown Sugar Salmon, the Smoked Salmon Wrap, and an incredible Fried Shrimp Po Boy, just to name a few. 

Southern Comfort Food

We earn our credibility as a family restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks in part due to the incredible Southern comfort-style meals that are created in our kitchen. (That and the welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere all around the restaurant.) 

For anyone that enjoys foods "like Mom used to make," we've got what you're looking for! From the Hickory-Smoked Meatloaf to the Chicken Fried Chicken and Open-Faced Smoked Turkey, your mouth will be watering just reading about them on the menu! (Wait 'til you get a taste!)  

Today's blog gives you a good idea of the incredible variety on the menu at our restaurant & bar at the Lake of the Ozarks, but we've barely scratched the surface! You can see a full menu on our website and even order Wobbly Boots BBQ to-go online while you're there. Of course, if you'd prefer to dine right here at the Boot and get a good look at the menu in person, well, we'd love to have you over for dinner!

March Means It's Time For Corned Beef & College Basketball!

What does the month of March make you start thinking about? For most people, it's the coming of spring. We agree that is a wonderful event but around this BBQ restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks, our first thoughts wander to memories of years past.

Baby Back Ribs & Spare Ribs - What's the Difference?

We serve a whole lot of amazing hickory-smoked meats at our Lake of the Ozarks BBQ restaurant. While everyone has a variety of different favorites, BBQ ribs seem to be popular with the majority of diners. Here at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Osage Beach, while ribs are an easy dinner decision, which ribs to order may be a bit more difficult to decide.

The best BBQ ribs at the Lake of the Ozarks are available in two different ways at the Boot; Baby Back Ribs and Classic Pork Spare Ribs. Here's a closer look at exactly what to expect from each of those. This information should make it a little easier for you to make up your mind. (Of course, it might also make you want to order them both!) 

Baby Back Ribs

The name of this delicious dish does not come from the age of the animal, but rather the smaller size of the ribs compared to classic spare ribs. They are also the tenderest and leanest ribs you can order with meat both between and on top of the bones. These are taken from the top of the rib cage between the spine and spare ribs, below the loin muscle.


Baby back ribs are sometimes referred to as back ribs, loin ribs, or Canadian ribs. The latter is due to the fact that Canadian bacon comes from the same loin meat that is connected to these ribs. Generally, baby back ribs have between 10-13 curved bones that are 3-6 inches long.

Here at the Boot, our Baby Back Ribs Dinner can be ordered as either a full or half-slab of tender, meaty ribs. First, they are coated in our special dry rub. After that, we slow-smoke them, lightly grill them, and baste the ribs with our secret recipe sauce before putting them on a plate next to Texas toast and your favorite side dish.

Pork Spare Ribs

Spare ribs are flatter than baby back ribs and tend to have less meat, but since they are also a fattier cut, that often causes them to be one of the most flavorful cuts. They are taken from the belly side of the rib cage, below the section of back ribs and above the breast bone.


Our Classic Pork Spare Ribs Dinner at the Boot is an experience that true BBQ-lovers thoroughly enjoy. Available as either a full or half-slab serving, our special dry rub is used to coat the juicy ribs and then they are slow-roasted over hickory logs until they reach the perfect degree of mouthwatering goodness! We then baste them with our secret recipe sauce and serve them up with a big ol' slice of Texas toast and one of our homestyle side dishes to complete the dining experience.

Ribs AND...

Sometimes you might be in the mood for BBQ ribs but also want to try something else on the menu. That's where these terrific combo plates come in handy! 

Ribbies & Wings
Two of our most popular items on the same plate! 4 individual pork spare ribs with our house recipe BBQ sauce and 5 Wobbly Wings with your choice of sauce. 

The Wobbly Boots Sampler
Even more of some of the best of what we have to offer! 4 onion rings, 4 bacon-wrapped shrimp, 4 Wobbly Wings, and 4 spare ribs slathered in BBQ sauce. 

BBQ Chicken & Ribs Combo
The hearty meal offers a delicious combination of mouthwatering 'que! You get a half BBQ chicken and a half-slab of pork spare ribs, both glazed in our house-made sauce, plus a piece of Texas toast and a homestyle side dish. 


As you can see, we've got those irresistible ribs as both appetizers and full meals at our family restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks. That means no matter the level of your hunger, we can satisfy it perfectly with BBQ ribs at the Wobbly Boots Roadhouse! Swing on by soon and give 'em a taste. You're going to love them!
