Smoked brisket with barbecue sauce and baked beans

Our History


Filling Station BBQ is a uniquely nostalgic family oriented and owned business located in historic downtown Lee's Summit. The building itself opened as a Texaco gas station in the 1930's and later became a garden shop. In 1999 the gas station was renovated into a BBQ restaurant which included an onsite smoker. The original gas station design was retained outside and is currently acknowledged by the Historical Register. The nostalgic interior is decorated with vintage signs, pictures and memorabilia from the old gas station days. Outside you will find colorful seating provided for those spring, summer and fall days when you just don't want to go inside.


The current owners, Chris and Genni Nudson, reside in Lee's Summit with their family. They bring a deep passion for BBQ, exceptional customer service, and a love for nostalgia to this beloved establishment.


Chris and Genni are dedicated to maintaining the nostalgic atmosphere that has made Filling Station BBQ a favorite while adding their unique touch. Their commitment to delivering outstanding BBQ and a memorable dining experience is at the core of their mission.


Join us at Filling Station BBQ, where tradition meets a dash of spice, and every meal is served with genuine hospitality.
