Life is more fun on Welcome to the home of Barbecue Fun in the Lake Charles area, Paul's Rib Shack! We take great meats, smoke them with tender-loving-care over a live real-wood fire, all with a flair for fun and Louisiana style. Our hope is that when you put those tender morsels of barbecue goodness in your mouth, you will say it's the best barbecue you can remember! (That's what the

current members of tell us, anyway!)
