Hey, it’s just me again, cranking up the old Mercury to go on another road trip. �is time I’m bringing you the best locally owned places to eat and enjoy in Missouri. �is has become quite an adventure to be able to go from state to state to learn about each unique Mom and Pop restaurant. We have already been to Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas and now the journey continues with a trip across Missouri. My hope is that you enjoy the State Back Road Restaurant Series as much as I have enjoyed bringing it to you. Just toss the book in the car and we’ll explore the �ve regions together.

We’ll start in the Northwest Region where you will �nd Rolling Pin Bakery in Glasgow. �ere is nothing like a good warm cinnamon roll with a cold glass of chocolate milk �rst thing in the morning. (Yes, I prefer milk over co�ee; that is just the kid in me.) Try the Iced Snickerdoodles (page 29) while you are there. You may even run into the “ladies” there. Read about them in the book—it’s quite a story. Bring your cooler and stop at Kurzweil’s Country Meats where you can take home “Raised on the Farm” meats. Or, eat in and get them to serve you Smoked Pork Chops with Apple Glaze (page 27). In all, you will �nd 22 outstanding, locally-owned restaurants in the Northwestern region.

Next, we’ll cut across to the Northeast Region where you will �nd Marshall (pronounced Mar-shell) at the South 63 Café in Macon. �is lady runs the café like she does her home—you are always welcome and she feeds not only your stomach, but also your soul. She will tell you to come and join the other nuts in the café and enjoy yourself with laughter, teasing, wisdom and a blessing to take you on your way. If you leave hungry, it will be your own fault. �e portions are big at a reasonable price and you will get a “Bless You” when you waddle out the door. Try the recipe for Coconut Cream Pie (page 85), my father’s favorite, or the Hand-Breaded Tenderloin (page 84).

Later, we’ll visit Mama Campisi’s On the Hill in St. Louis where you will learn the fascinating story about when Fried Ravioli was �rst created. �ere are 22 restaurants in this region, also, and I can tell you, each restaurant is as good as the one before.

Now let’s jump to the Central Region right in the middle of Missouri. Tired yet? Stop at the Iron Horse Hotel and Restaurant, get some rest and enjoy the Bananas Foster Cheesecake (page 119). YUM. Enjoy a walk through the past re�ecting on the glory days of the railroad barons in their furnishings; if Tracy is there, he’ll tell you the stories. Don’t forget to stop in Sweetwater BBQ in Saint Robert. Say hello to Ms. Saxton for me and enjoy barbecue done right. Don’t forget to try some of Judy’s Everything Carrot Cake (page 147). Too full to eat there? Go home and make it yourself with her recipe. You will �nd 15 locally owned places featured in this region.

Let’s drop down to the Southeast Region, as we continue our journey and visit Toni Brown at the Fiddler’s Fish House in Dexter. Toni learned this business from the pond up, you may say. She serves great �sh—from pond to plate—along with sides including her Vinegar Slaw (page 201). Her daughter Layla works by her side; Fiddler’s is truly a family run business. Drop in and visit Strawberry’s BBQ as you pass through Holcomb. Enjoy his beans, slaw and legendary 2-pound pork steak—it really is as big as a dinner plate. I hope you will have time to visit all 14 restaurants included in this region.

Okay let’s �nish our tour with the Southwest Region and we will have come full circle through Missouri. Uncle Rooster’s in Seymour, with the big white rooster prominently displayed out front, is sure to grab your attention. Come in and visit with Wayne “Rooster” Durning, check out the locally made cra�s for sale and even sign your name on the �oor so everyone will know you have been there. Have I told you that a good hot dog is my favorite comfort food? Uncle Rooster’s serves the best Chicago dog; it will give you something to crow about. As you travel to Branson and turn a curve in the road at the base of the, what I call a mountain—I was informed it was just a really tall hill, you will come across Dana’s Bar B Que and Burger Shop. �e smell of barbecue smoking will reach you long before you �nd Dana’s, they are well known for the best old-fashioned hickory smoked barbecue around. �ey smoke their meats 12 to 14 hours every night over hickory wood so the smell is incredible. �ese two restaurants along with 10 more will keep you well-fed when traveling in this region.

A�er losing Leonard to cancer back in 2011, I had to �nd another road buddy. My Grandson Nic traveled with me for a while, but now that he has turned 18, he has other things on his mind —girls, work, hunting, hanging with the guys. Granny isn’t top priority in his world now, so I had to �nd another traveling friend. God has blessed me with Richard Shaw. I wonder how long it will take him to get tired of being “lost” for hours? As we travel along, Richard and I wonder at the things we see like the steeple still pointing toward heaven while the walls around it have gone. What happened to the old church? What about the old chimney standing in the middle of a �eld? I’m thankful that he’s by my side on my road trips these days.

Of course, even with new travel partners, one thing never changes. Wherever our travels take us, we always search out the locally owned restaurants for a great

meal. I suggest you get in your car and travel, too. Just go right and see where it will lead you. When you get hungry, you may be surprised at Mom and Pop places near

where you are. Travel near a river or large stream, and I bet you will �nd a great cat�sh place to eat. I have. Sni� the air, smell that hickory wood burning, bet it is

a barbecue place or a steak dive. I hope you will get out, enjoy life, and experience things you do not normally get to enjoy … and support the locally owned places to

eat while you are there. Where’s the keys? Let’s go!

Greatest Thing Since Sliced BreadHome of Sliced Bread, Chillicothe

Chillicothe Baking Company first introduced the world to sliced bread on July 6, 1928. In an advertisement from around that time, owner Frank Bench boasted about his Kleen Maid Sliced Bread. Saying, “Just think of it! Every slice perfect and CORRECT, far better than you could cut it yourself. There was a time when you ground coffee. Now you buy it ground. Well, this is the same sort of sensible, logical improvement.”

The sliced bread sold by Chillicothe Baking Company was also advertised

as “the greatest forward step in the baking industry since bread was wrapped.” This led to the popular phrase, “greatest thing since sliced bread.”

We take it for granted today, but there was a time that “sliced bread”—a loaf of bread that has been sliced with a machine and packaged for convenience—was unheard of by busy moms of the day. Since the beginning of civilization, bread was made in loaves that had to be cut to size by hand. Previous efforts to mechanize the process resulted in squashed slices of bread.

Then along came Otto Rohwedder of Davenport, Iowa. His did the job with multiple knives that sliced from the top and the bottom at the same time. Two metal pins inserted at each end held the loaf together while it was wrapped in paper. When the housewife was ready to use the bread, the wrapper was opened and one pin taken out. Enough slices for the meal were removed and the wrapper was folded closed.

However, it was almost NOT the greatest thing since sliced bread, because nobody wanted Rohwedder’s machine. He had worked on the device for more than a decade, but bakers were skeptical, fearing the bread would go stale. When Bench decided to give the machine a try, his Kleen Maid Bread quickly became very popular, increasing their sales by 2,000 percent in just a few weeks.

The city of Chillicothe decided to honor this monumental event and in 2007 made their official town slogan: “The Home of Sliced Bread.”

FUN FACTS: X U.S. o�cials banned sliced bread on January 18, 1943, as a

conservation e�ort during the war. �e ban was very unpopular with housewives of the day and lasted less than three months.

X Rohwedder sold his three jewelry stores to fund the development e�ort and to manufacture his bread-slicing machines.

X In 1917, a �re broke out at the factory where Rohwedder was manufacturing his machine. It destroyed his prototype and blueprints.

X In 1927, Rohwedder obtained a patent on an improved machine that not only sliced the bread, but wrapped it.

X By coincidence Frank Bench went into production with the machine on Rohwedder’s 48th birthday.

X �e �rst loaf of sliced bread was sold commercially on July 7, 1928, at Chillicothe Baking Company, owned by Frank Bench.

First Presidential LibraryHarry S. Truman Presidential

Library and Museum, IndependenceOne of only thirteen U.S. Presidential Libraries, and the first built under the provisions of the 1955 Presidential Libraries Act, the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum is the presidential library for Harry S. Truman, the 33rd president of the United States (1945–1953).

Built on a hill overlooking the Kansas City skyline, on land donated by the City of Independence, the Truman Library was dedicated July 6,

1957, in a ceremony which included the Masonic Rites of Dedication and attendance by former President Herbert Hoover (then the only living former president other than President Truman) and former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.

Two permanent exhibits chronicle the Missourian’s private life and political career—with exhibits depicting his most difficult decisions, like using the atomic bomb, the Cold War and recognizing Israel. In an educational program called The White House Decision Center, school students take on the roles of President Truman and his advisors facing real-life historical decisions in a re-creation of the West Wing of the White House. The museum’s historical collection consists of approximately 30,000 objects, including hundreds of Truman family possessions, political memorabilia, diplomatic gifts, and 1,300 letters from the Truman courtship and marriage.

President Truman and his wife, Bess, their daughter Margaret Truman Daniel, and her husband E. Clifton Daniel, are buried in the museum’s courtyard. Museum visitors can also see two of Truman’s offices—the actual office he used at the Library from 1957–1966 and a replica of his Oval Office with a recorded message from him about the contents. There are also exhibits featuring the guns used by the two Puerto Rican nationalists who almost killed Truman in 1950 and a copy of the 1948 “Dewey Defeats Truman” newspaper.

Dedicated in July 1957, the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum was the second Presidential Library to receive national designation but the first to be created under the 1955 Presidential Libraries Act. The Truman Library is administered by the National Archives and Records Administration and supported in part by its nonprofit partner, the Truman Library Institute.
