Prairie Fire BBQ

London's only Traditional Kansas City BBQ- find us at Arch 88-89 | Wood Lane Arches | London | W12 7 Real BBQ can't be rushed, it's done, when it's done.

Prairie Fire BBQ was created in 2013 by a Kansas Citian that moved to London and missed the authentic taste of home, Kansas City Barbecue. I was raised on Sunday family meals of slow smoked meats from the BBQ pit. It all began many years ago, firing up the smoker to start the day's long low and slow cook of brisket, pork butt, chicken and ribs for the family feasts. I learned the craft from watchi

ng my graddad those weekends on the backyard patio. Later honing my skills working with American Royal Champion Boondoggle BBQ. The annual parties at the Lenexa BBQ competition were always great fun with amazing 'cue. What makes Kansas City style the greatest is that we smoke everything, not just Brisket, Pork or Ribs like our regional neighbors. The ubiquitous smokey tomato, molasses and vinegar BBQ sauce everyone knows was created in Kansas City. When the sauce is done right, it enhances the BBQ experience. Our Great Taste award winning Prairie Fire BBQ Original sauce is handmade here in London. I think of it as Kansas City in a bottle. Kansas City is the BBQ capital of the world, with over 100 BBQ restaurants, two of the worlds premier annual BBQ competitions, and the home of the KCBS- Kansas City Barbecue Society (The primary governing body of all major BBQ competitions worldwide)

I would be remiss not to share some of my hometown favorite 'cue joints all of which inspire me in one way or another: Bear's Smokeshack, RJ's, BB's Woodyard, Smokin' Guns, Bryant's, LC's, Jack Stack, Rosedale, The Dotte, Brobeck's, Gates, Guy & Maes, McGonigles & Okie Joe's. The best, well that's a great debate.

Since announcing our upcoming closure after the Super Bowl, we’ve had customers say they cannot believe it. The last few years have been exceptionally difficult for hospitality. Our costs have increased so much so that without a packed house every night, it is simply not sustainable. We opened the restaurant 2 months before lockdown in a new development that is still incomplete. Throw in Brexit, a war, massive inflation, crushing VAT, business rates and increasing wages and it’s surprising we survived this long. The worst part, even with all of these obstacles, if VAT was only 10% for restaurants, we would have survived. That is pretty crazy.

It is with much sadness we announce the closure of Prairie Fire after the Super Bowl tailgate on Sunday 11 Feb.💔

Please visit us this week for one last brisket, PFQ Signature burger, and a cold beer.

A heartfelt thank you to our loyal customers. Without you we never would have been able to keep doing what we love.

Much love,
The Prairie Fire Team
