Shug Smoke Shack - Donnellson (IL)

5 /5 jimmy ruiz: All around a great place to eat. I met the owner supper amazing gentlemen. The loaded banked potato with brisket is a must. Only bad thing I must say is its not close enough to home. But id take the 4 hour drive with a group of friends anyday..

5 /5 Devin Meisinger: Had a last minute Christmas party with the family and wow! So glad we went with the brisket and mashed potatoes, so friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to have another reason to come back. Can’t recommend enough.

5 /5 Carrie: Our first time there today and we were surprised how everything tasted. Highly recommended and well worth the drive from Springfield! A hidden gem! They had free water inflatables for kids set up too!

5 /5 Lisa Casterline: I had seen great reviews from friends raving online about this place so I wanted to try it out. It was the first Fathers Day after my Dads passing and I was struggling to come up with a way to still make the day special for my husband, but not stress any of us out. I decided to try it for the first time by ordering the Family Feast. The food was amazing and the portions were enough for another meal for the 4 of us. We were even running late to pick it up and they called to make sure we werent lost and everything was OK. The ribs were our favorite (fall off the bone tender), but EVERYTHING was really delicious. Without even knowing the importance of it to us, they made the day special by providing a family feast worthy of Fathers Day (without the hassle for us). Would definitely recommend this place.
