Start Your Meal Off Right With Our Awesome Appetizers

Wobbly Boots Roadhouse in Osage Beach offers a great big menu filled with all kinds of hearty plates full of the best BBQ at the Lake of the Ozarks. Before you get to the main meal of lunch or dinner, you'll want to take a look at the many delicious appetizers we have to offer.

We suggest that you either come into our Lake of the Ozarks BBQ restaurant either very hungry or with a few friends to share some appetizers with so you don't miss out on this tasty section of the menu.

Wobbly Boots' Fried Pickles - Kind of a Big Dill!

Fried pickles began as a delicacy throughout the southern United States. This delicious treat eventually headed north and we all fell in love with the taste too. Wobbly Boot Roadhouse found our own way to cook up this fantastic dish that makes it a "must-try" item from the appetizer list. 

Our Lake of the Ozarks family restaurant serves up a half pound of pickle chips per order. They are hand-breaded in our specially seasoned flour, fried to a golden brown, and served with a delicious Chipotle Ranch dipping sauce. Either as a snack, an appetizer, or side dish, the fried pickles at Wobbly Boots BBQ are an excellent choice.  

Who Created the Fried Pickle?
As with many origin stories, there is more than one. There is a record of a "French Fried Pickle" recipe being published as early as 1962 for the Food Editors Conference in New York. 

Another popular story, which seems to have come about much too late to be the original, is from the Hollywood Cafe out of Hollywood, Mississippi. Their tale from 1969 begins with a crowded restaurant and a cook without enough catfish to feed them all. In desperation, he reached for the industrial-sized jar of dill pickles that was handy, rolled them in the catfish batter, dropped them in the fryer, and served them to the patrons. They were an immediate hit.

The most popular story, which seems to fit into a more plausible time frame, is out of Atkins, Arkansas. In 1963, Bernell "Fatman" Austin owned the Duchess Drive-In across the highway from the Atkins Pickle Plant. (FYI: Atkins is known as the pickle capital of Arkansas!) Staring across the street at the pickle plant, Bernell was inspired to create a recipe.

That particular recipe is a well-guarded, family secret to this day. You can now only get a taste of Bernell's original creation once a year at the annual Picklefest held each May in Atkins. The family dishes up about 2,500 orders of the "Fatman's Original Fried Dill Pickles" at every festival and the money raised is used for scholarships and charities that Bernell supported. 

Sometime in the late 1990s, three high school friends brought the southern deep-fried pickle to the Minnesota State Fair, calling them the "Preferred Pickle." They were so popular, the same three friends began manufacturing them under KWF Foods and selling them to the foodservice industry. 

The Boot's Are the Best!
Regardless of how the fried pickle found its way to the Midwest or who actually invented it, the best BBQ restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks has perfected it! The next time you have a craving for some Wobbly Boots BBQ, add an order of our Fried Pickles to the mix. We just know you are going to love them!

A Mountain of Food - The Wobbly Boots Sampler!

There is an enormous amount of delicious food to choose from on the menu at our Lake of the Ozarks BBQ restaurant. Sometimes it can be extremely difficult to narrow down which dish you want to order. One menu item that allows you to get a taste of not one but FOUR of our amazing food choices is the Wobbly Boots Roadhouse Sampler.

Even though it's listed in the appetizer section, if you tackle this plate on your own it's more than enough for a full meal! It's also a great choice if you'll be sharing with a few friends. Here is a look at all of the mouthwatering treats you get when you order our Wobbly Boots Sampler. 

Wobbly Wings
Wobbly Wings are most definitely one of the most popular items on our menu, and with the Wobbly Boots Sampler, you get 4 of them. One thing that makes our wings so very tasty is the fact that they are smoked rather than fried. (Except for the "Trashed" Wings, which get a dose of both!)

First, we take jumbo chicken wings and then we coat them in our house dry rub. Next, they are slow-roasted over hickory, ensuring only the most flavorful, juiciest wings possible. The flavor is incredible, even if the wings are served plain, but if you are in the mood for sauce, you can pick from these:

• BBQ - Our house-recipe sauce. A great addition to anything!
• Original – A mustard-based sauce like no other. Try it, you'll be hooked. 
• Chipotle Buffalo – Our version of traditional Buffalo.
• Teriyaki – Sweet meets heat. Delicious!
• Trashed – Our smoked wings deep-fried before serving. 

Spare Ribs
When you dine at a BBQ joint, you really should give their ribs a try. Here at Wobbly Boots Roadhouse, you'll certainly be glad when you do! The 4 Spare Ribs on our sampler are very likely to make you crave an entire dinner featuring this incredible hickory-smoked meat! 

We prepare them for the smoker by adding our special dry rub. Once they're done in there, they are lightly grilled and basted in our house-recipe BBQ sauce before being added to the plate. They are tender, mouthwatering, and the very best in ribs!

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

Another extremely popular item from the appetizer menu is our Bacon Wrapped Shrimp. They are small treats with GREAT BIG flavor! 4 large gulf shrimp are each individually wrapped in our hickory-smoked bacon. Once that is done, they are grilled to perfection. Delish!

Famous Onion Rings
This dish normally comes on a plate as a full or half-order appetizer, or sometimes people upgrade their side dish for dinner to include these crispy treats. On the Wobbly Boots Sampler, you will get 4 of our amazing onion rings made from thick-cut yellow onions. We bathe them in buttermilk, then hand-bread each in our seasoned flour and fry them to a golden brown. The chipotle ranch dipping sauce is great for dipping!

So, are you ready to give the Wobbly Boots Sampler a try? It's a wonderful introduction to a few of the tastiest menu items at our family restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks, and this mountain of food is suitable both for a BIG meal or for sharing. You can't go wrong when you order 4 foods in just 1 dish, but of course, no matter what you choose to order from Wobbly Boots BBQ, it's going to be a delicious decision.
