Fireworks

The Lake of the Ozarks seems to have fireworks going on everywhere on the 4th, and a few places are even hosting celebrations early on the 3rd.  There is lots of time for fun when a holiday actually falls right in the center of a weekend. You can see a complete list of Lake of the Ozarks fireworks and celebrations at Funlake.com.  There are three cruises going out on the water to view the fireworks too.  The Celebration is leaving from the Lodge of Four Seasons in Lake Ozark, the Tropic Island from Tan-Tar-A Resort in Osage Beach, and Playin' Hooky Water Taxi from Millstone Marina in Gravois Mills.  Watching fireworks from the water makes them even more incredible, but these book up fast, so if you're interested you need to make reservations right away.  Their info is also on the Funlake list.

Shorty Pants Lounge 10 Year Anniversary

Yes, our favorite Cajun sister restaurant is turning the big 1-0, and they are celebrating with an all-American crawfish boil.  Jim Beam, ice cold beer, Hurricanes, and spicy crawfish for an incredible night of eating, drinking, and celebrating.  Dustin Clark will take the stage to entertain the crowd when the boiling starts at 6 pm.

AquaPalooza

Our other "sis," Dog Days Bar and Grill, hosts the largest one-day family event at the Lake of the Ozarks with their giant concert on the water.  The stage can be seen from their lower deck and from all of the boats, waverunners, floaties... you name it... in the lake around their docks.  They have four amazing bands performing from noon until 5 pm; State Line Drive, Disco Dick and the Mirrorballs, Double Vision (Foreigner Tribute), and Members Only.  If you head over to Funlake.com/AquaPalooza you can even register to win a 2015 Yamaha Waverunner.  If you aren't lucky enough to make if there, you can listen live all day on Cool Radio 102.7 FM.

We want everyone to have an incredible Fourth of July weekend.  There is a lot going on all over the Lake, but we hope that you make a little time to stop into your favorite Lake of the Ozarks BBQ restaurant and spend a little bit of it with us.  We've got some delicious BBQ waiting here for you, and don't forget to pick some up for all of your holiday picnics and get-togethers.  We look forward to seeing lots of you this July and all Summer long.

5 Health Benefits of Spicy Foods

Are you a heat-seeker?  Wobbly Boots Roadhouse not only has the best BBQ at the Lake of the Ozarks, but our menu also boasts a few items for those that like to spice things up. Hot, spicy foods are not only delicious to eat, but there are actually some added health benefits.  These benefits may just be the excuse you were looking for to add a little heat to your diet.

  

Stress Relief

Spicy foods increase your body's production of "feel-good" hormones.  These endorphins are the body's natural pain medication and can reduce anxiety and stress, even easing the effects of depression.  

Heart Health

Chili peppers can lower the effects of the damage that is done from "bad" cholesterol by increasing its breakdown rate.  The pepper's heat also increases blood flow, which improves heart function and helps to lower blood pressure.  

Weight Loss

Studies have been done that prove that the spicy chemical in peppers - capasaicin - boosts your metabolism.  The effect can last up to 20 minutes after you have eaten.  Spicy foods also help you to feel full and they reduce cravings for salty, sweet, and fatty foods.

Eases congestion

The discomfort from clogged nasal passages can be lightened by eating spicy foods because they thin the mucus.  You have most likely experienced watery eyes and a runny nose if you have braved eating something super-hot.  This heat can also help with respiratory problems like bronchitis and even asthma.

Cancer Prevention

The American Association for Cancer Research has stated that the capsaicin in peppers has the ability to kill some cancer and leukemic cells.  It creates a reaction that lowers the risk of tumors too.

So come on in to Wobbly Boots Roadhouse and order up some hot stuff.  A few of our fiery choices are our Hot Cheesy Stripper and Buffalo Chicken Wrap, both covered in our spicy Hot chipotle sauce, or the El Diablo Burger.  This big boy boasts ghost pepper cheese, jalapenos, and our zesty 6-pepper sauce.  Betcha' that one works up a sweat!

Head on over to the best BBQ restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks and get your spice on.  Brave one of our red-hot choices and we'll be sure to have an ice cold beverage standing by.
