CLOSED: Sugarfire Smokehouse★

If the lunchtime queue at this celebrated St. Louis import stretches onto Washington Street, the friendly staff might reward your wait with a sample of succulent, slow-cooked brisket or pork. Daily sides like creamed spinach, corn casserole, and pimento-cheese potatoes round out your meal. Sauces range from Texas hot to an Alabama-inspired one with horseradish to a smoky and complex coffee-barbecue. Juicy turkey, salmon, and a smoked-Portobello sandwich complete the less-than-expected menu at this welcome addition to Indy’s growing barbecue scene. Lunch and dinner daily.
