Mississippi State (Starkville, MS)

Two Brother’s Smoked Meats: This is by far the favorite in Starkville amongst locals. Just down the street from Mississippi State University is this multi-story barbecue masterpiece. Smoked chicken and brisket are the staples here with a pecan-fueled outdoor smoker. This place speaks Mississippi barbecue to the soul.

Starkville Café: Great southern-style breakfast spot early on game-day. Their special homemade syrup called “duck butter” is a must-have.

The Little Dooey: Laid-back restaurant with barbecue, catfish and more. Checkered tablecloths make you feel right at home in Starkville.

Bulldog Burger Co.: This casual regional chain offers some of the best burgers in town. Popular amongst the college crowd and offers a classic deli fare with a southern twist.
