I've lived here for 6 years and have heard constantly of how good Moonlite is, however, I was never taken there to eat. Well we found Moonlite by accident a few days ago and decided to stop in and give it a try. What a wonderful surprise it was! We enjoyed the atmosphere, the wonderful service but most of all the delicious food, from meats to desserts, it was the best BBQ I've EVER eaten, and I've eaten a lot! It was so good we went back the very next night and had the same wonderful experience again. Thank you for being such an asset to Owensboro and the surrounding communities.

WOW! When I visited my Dad and Step Mom from Vrmont we went to your restraunt for dinner. What a delicious meal. Southern cooking at its best. Now, when I want to send them a treat for a holiday, anniversary, birthday and now Father's Day I think of how deliciuos that meal was. They love eating there and my mouth just waters thinking about the meal I had. When I visit again this year we are definitely heading there for a long awaited tasty treat. Thanks, Peggy Roberts

My wife and I came down to Kentucky back in July of 96 to visit my father. He grew up there in Owensboro and returned after 35 years. Since we were all hungry and I remember as a kid going down to Stanley, to a place called Dales BBQ, I was in the mood for Mutton, as ya know that just doesn't happen in NY. So he suggested we go to the Moonlite, him and his wife Helen frequented the place, and said it was awesome. Well to make a long story short, I ate and ate till I was so stuffed, and even took more home with us, lol. You all have a great establishment and wonderful atmosphere. The food is tremendous and I want to come back for more. Thank you for the great moment we had while there, we'll make it back soon. Only this time we'll be bringing our lil girl Amalia Nicolette Conrey along :) Best wishes and continued success, James Conrey II

We came to Kentucky last week to help some friends move. As a treat they took us all out to dinner at your excellent restaurant. I grew up on barbecue, but I have to say yours is THE BEST! Since I got back home I have prepared several things out of your cook book & they are all delicious. Hats off to your awesome food & friendly atmosphere. You have me wishing I were coming to Kentucy again soon. THANKS for a great experience!

We live about 70 miles from Owensboro, and we love not just the BBQ but all the food and deserts. The Burgoo is out of this world. We go to Moonlite with the entire family and usually friends along, about 5 or 6 times a year. About 5 or 6 times a year my son and I will drive to Moonlite and get containers of food to go and bring it back home to invite friends over. The food is packaged very well because when we get back home the food good and warm, ready to eat. I wish you would build one here in our town !!!

We have place in New York called Virgils, which has tried to copy the recipe but there is nothing like Moonlight.

I'm a truck driver and recently had a pickup in your town. When I asked two locals if there was any good BBQ in town, they looked at each other, smiled, and said in unison, "Moonlite". I was very pleased with my lunch buffet and have to say that my first experience with BBQ mutton was great. The burgoo was on the edge of my spiciness scale, but I ate it anyway and enjoyed it. The banana pudding wasn't as good as Grandma made, but it was real close. When I returned to work today, I volunteered to go to Owensboro any time they want to send me. When I return, I hope you have a spot saved for me there!

My husband and I love Moonlite. Every year we look forward to celebrating our anniversary and birthdays( which are a week apart) at Moonlite. We are foster parents and don't get away from our 8 children often,but when we do go out it is always across the border to Moonlite. Once in a while our children get lucky and get to eat at Moonlite also, but we do like our special time together there. Pappy and Catherine are sadly missed now when we come. Looking forward to the trip for our Birthdays this weekend. Thanks for the best BBQ in the tri-state!!!!!!

To my delight and plesant surprise our family banquet was held at the restaurant on Sunday after church service. I love the blackberry cobler and I always plan to eat at the restaurant every time I am in the Owensboro area. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!!

I am pleased to know of your online store. I was born and raised in Owensboro and now miss the mutton and burgoo that we had at least once a week. I will be purchasing enough for a party toward the end of this month. Can you approximate how much sliced mutton I would need for 25 people? I plan to order sliced and chopped mutton and a gallon of burgoo, but am not sure about the quantity. Any suggesions would be appreciated.

A co-worker and I were just disgussing how we both had eaten at Moonlight many years before. Myself while I was helping our survey crew and staying at Executive Inn in Owensboro MANY years ago. My co-worker and I both agreed that Moonlight was and is the best barbeque we've had. I just found your web site and thought I'd leave this submittal. Ron Dean Nicholasville KY

I heard about your place at a lecture put on by the Culinary Historians Club of Chicago today. The presenter, Gary Viviott (called the Professor of BBQ in Chicago, see John Kass article in Chicago Tribune 6/12j@ Chicagotribune.com) highly recommended you. I will be in the area next week for a wedding and my eyes lit up. See you next weekend!

We love to visit the Moonlite BBQ whenever we have visitors from outside the Kentuciana area. They ALWAYS rave about the quality of the buffet! As one of the spokesmen for the Roadfood.Com website that shares 'foodie' information with over 26,000 web-members, we are proud to recommend a stop at the Moonlite to anyone passing near the Owensboro area. This time we will be in Henderson KY for the W C Handy Blues and BBQ festival Friday June 17th...But dinner will be at the Moonlite !!

I miss having mutton and burgoo on a regular basis. I grew up in Owensboro, but went into the Air Force in 1964. Since then, the only time I get Mutton is when we visit my brother, Judge Jeff Taylor. I have been around the world and all around the country, and there is no substitute for Barbeque from Owensboro. I graduated from DCHS is 1964, and I spread the word everywhere I go. You ain't had real barbeque until you've been to Owensboro, Ky.

I lived in Owensboro in 1983-84. The buffet at Moonlite Bar-B-Q was one of my favorite places to stay a while. I just found a local Brunswick stew here in Florida that is not sweet. It reminds me of the Kentucky Burgoo from Moonlite. Some good things stay with you.

My father and I come to Owensboro each year now to attend the BBQ Festival on Mothers Day weekend. He was raised in Owensboro in the 50's and remembered this little BBQ place he and my Mother had gone to as teenagers. On our first trip up there we drove by and was he surprised. He went there as a teen when there were only a few places to sit. We had already eaten that day so I didn't get the chance to eat there on that trip and made the comment that we should plan to the next year. We left 2 hours earlier the next year from Memphis just to go to the buffet. What a great layout of food. Being the former head chef of a local BBQ team, I feel I'm pretty well versed in how BBQ should taste. Believe me when I say you folks have got it. EVERYTHING was good. Keep up the great work and we'll see you in May.

Moved to AZ 25 years ago; come back to see the trees change and to EAT BBQ MUTTON at the Moonlite!! This past Oct (2004) we toured from Louisville to Evansville to Knoxville (via Owensboro)to Lexington back to Louisville. We sampled pulled pork (no one had mutton except you know who) We had Chicago style; Texas Style, Louisiana Style, Kentucky Style and Tennesse Style. We enjoyed the all (execpt Texas Style, is that really BBQ?) any way Moonlite is THE BEST. Moonlite is the perfect combination of sticky sweet Indidan style and dry spicy Tennesse style and only Moonlite has the mutton mutton mutton. We love you Moonlite.

I am delighted to say that I will be returning to the US in 2005 and visiting the Moonlite is priority one on my list of things to do. Thank you for all the wonderful food, service and memories and this time I will be bringing my wife and kids to visit for the first time. Not just the best Barbecue in the world but the best food there is in the world. I'll see you next summer.

Our family are long time Moonlight ham fans. Your friend, and ours, Mr. Glen Barnes first hooked my dad up with your wonderful hams. Two years ago I was lucky enough to spend a few days in Ownesboro specifically to eat at your restaurant, and did we eat! What a treat to be able to try all of your excellent fare! This year, my daughters will get to carry on a third generation of holiday tradition for us by ordering the Moonlight hams. We thank you, AND Mr. Barnes, for starting something that we intend to keep going for another twenty years. God Bless, and Happy Xmas! Terrie Darragh

I was born and raised in Owensboro, we moved to Phoenix in 1987 when my husband got a job with America West Airlines. I tell the people here about the best bar-b-que ever is Moonlight. Of course, they have no idea why we would eat sheep, they are for grazing and for there wool. I wish y'all had a place here I really miss the good food from home. I come home in the summer and always make it down for some chopped mutton and the best potato salad in the world.

We have visited your place many times in the past and the best thing that happened one time was when we drove to Owensboro and brought our granddaughter with us. After we ate and started home, Jessica our granddaughter said " we drove down here just to eat". We told her yes because we love to eat their Bar-B-Que. You can imagine what she said after that. Yes I can't believe you. It was a wonderful meal.

Many years ago (during the early '70s)I traveled to Owensboro five to six times per year. My visit's to Owensboro ended when I was relocated with my Job from Hicksville,New York to Providence,Rhode Island. On the majority of my Owensboro visits General Electric personnel always took me to the Moonlight. I have traveled the world extensively and must complement you. . . Your Country Ham and Mutton are some of "the finest I have ever had." My trips to Owensboro have been long gone but the "fond memories" of the wonderful people at the General Electric Plant and and "mouth watering" Barbecue served at the "Moonlight" will linger on in my memory forever. Fortunately I have a friend of mine here in south Florida who played for the Miami Dolphin's (now Retired) who hails from Owensboro. He has just returned and informed me that he has a special treat for me that is guaranteed to rekindle the juices in my pallet. Good luck and thanks for the wonderful memories.

We were both born and raised in Owensboro and our families still live there. We try to hit Moonlite every time we are in to to visit and usually stop by on the way out of town to bring some burgoo, beef or mutton home with us. Having lived in Tennessee for 6 years now, I can tell you that compared to back home in Owensboro, folks here have no idea what good BBQ is!

Hi, I was born and raised in Owensboro. Everytime I come home to visit my family, I stop by your restaurant. I've been living in Minnesota for the past 22 years and I never forget the taste of good mutton. Northerners don't really know what mutton is. This time I plan to come to your restaurant around the Thanksgiving holiday and have a meal (your buffet)and I also will be bringing family members. Thanks for being a family tradition in fine dining. See you next week! Margo Blay-Bugbee

I was born in Owensboro (1935) My dad was Havey Conrey and mother is Maurine Johnson of Thruston. Their home at that time was on Geary Court. Dad worked at Mills Drug Store early on. The Mills Family were good people. My uncles, Tommy Conrey and Jerome Conrey lived there until their death. Jerome was head of the circulation dept. at the Owensboro Inquirer. My husband and I drove to Owensboro 2 years ago and ate at the Moonlite 2-3 times that week. I grew up hearing the words "Moonlight BBQ" so had to try it as an adult. Wonderful..we'll be back asap!!

I found my way to Moonlite back in the late 80's. I ventured in and had the BEST BBQ I ever laid my tongue on. In the mid 90's, on business, I was blessed to be in Owensboro and once again lay my tongue upon such wondrous BBQ that I thought I'd died and gone to Heaven. I have been all over the South, eaten at many Q joints and Moonlite is, and shall always be my absolute FAVORITE.

Hello Moonlite Bar-B-Q and Bosley's!!!! Hey, I just wanted to drop you a line, and tell you how wonderful your place is. I first discovered Moonlite about 10 years ago, while living in Nashville, TN. I've been a fan ever since! I try to make it down to Owensboro at least a couple of times a year A) Because it's a neat little town! B) Because I know I can get the best BBQ on the face of the earth there! Thank you all, and keep up the great work!

I'm just reviewing your web site and I have downloaded some recipes to try. You were not in business when I was last in Owensboro, 1961, so your Inn is new to me. Being in the BBQ Baby Back Rib, Whole Pig Roasting, Chicken and Sausage catering with my mobil trailer, wood cooking only, I guess it is time for me to return and spend time at the Moonlite and your Mutton "Q". Until I do I'll do the "Online" Store ordering. Mutton was a mainstay during WWII at our home in New Jersey. About the only other place I know of to dine on mutton is at Kean's English Chop House in New York City.

I was born and raised in Owensboro, and actually worked at Moonlite during the summer of '93, but haven't lived there for almost 10 years now. I joined the military after high school and have been all over the country. I've had barbeque from other states such as Texas and Georgia but nobody's compares to "Owensboro-Daviess county barbeque"!! No other area in the country knows anything about burgoo or mutton. Anyway, I usually try to visit Moonlite during the Christmas holidays, and I hope to make it back this year. Keep up the good work!

She called last night to ask me if we liked Burgoo, my husband is a native too-Go BIG BLUE- not only do we like it, I've spent the hours it takes to make it for my supper club that I featured our favorite Ky. dishes. Yours was delicious!! I saved enough to have my mother over for dinner tonight, she's from Ky. too. I know I will be using your online services now. TL

Being a pilot, I flew down to Owensboro from time to time just to "eat at Moonlite".

FOOD VERY GOOD, THE SET UP FOR THE BUFFET IS HORRIBLE!! YOUR WORKERS CANNOT EVEN SAFELY PERFORM THE TASK OF FILLING AND REPLACING FOOD ITEMS. IT IS A CROWDED MESS AT THE BUFFET TABLE. WITH THE MONEY THAT MOONLITE MAKES, IT SHOULD INVEST IN SOME MUCH NEEDED UPDATES FOR THE BUFFET AREA. THANK YOU.

My husband and I have ate at Moonlite several times. That is our anniversay and birthday dinner place. We have eight dependant children, so it is difficult to get a sitter, but when we do that is our favorite place to go alone. In fact, we are going there today for supper to celebrate both our birthdays. We also bring the kids once in a while, but it is our favorite alone place. Thank you for all the good years you have given us and our family.

Walked in saying I was going to backrupt your buffet until I saw how well stocked it was. Nothing on the buffet looked other than home cooked and tasted that way. My nephew and I drove up from Birmingham just to try your mutton and we were more than well pleased. Enjoyed the service and hospitality as well as the road direction Ben (I hope that is correct, I have inner ear trouble)gave us to continue on to Charleston and Matoon at a later date. Thanks for a great meal.

I am a former employee '90-'91 I get a lot of people who want to purchase my old work T-shirt with Bar B-Que stains on it this morning someone offered $150 for a shirt this is the first time I have seen your site and am well pleased. That shirt 14 years later advertises for you. Have a pleasant day.

You have the BEST ribs and burgoo I have ever had. We drive to Owensboro just to eat at Moonlite. We always make sure we are very hungry. You also have one item on the salad bar that brings back a lot of memories for me. My aunt, Katherine Ruth always would bring the peanut covered bananas to family get togethers and I just loved them. I tried making them one time but they didn't taste like her's or yours. Thank you for your fine food.

I just want to say Thank You for all the great food over the years that I had from the "Moonlite". I live in Saint Louis Missouri, but both of my parents are from Owensboro and everytime that we would drive in to see our relatives we always make a stop at the "Moonlite". Thank You again for all the great food that you all make. We will be ordering online soon, after I get the food order from our family here in St. Louis. Keep up the good work! :)

Moonlite barbecue is the best that I ever ate. I plan to come to Owensboro again to get some more. I got the pork but I plan to get some chicken and some sauce too. The meat was so tender and not stringy and tough like other I have eaten.

While I was in the Army for 30 years, I always looked forward to the time that I could return home to Owensboro. One of my first stops in town would always be the Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn so that I could surround my taste buds in Moonlite's delicious mutton. Now I am living in Atlantic City, and I still dream of going to Owensboro and having me a mutton feast. Thanks for being there, Darrell R. Brown, Sergeant Major, (US Army, Retired).

My mother was from Sorgho and every year we went to visit and as a big treat for my brothers and I, we got to have mutton and burgoo. We just dined in your restaraunt over the weekend and as for the last 30 years or so, the mutton and burgoo still have the fantastic taste that we so much enjoy. It's one of those memory things for us that take us back to many good times in our lives.....Thanks !!!

When my dad wants to pay someone for a deed they have helped him with (and they won't take pay) he always takes them to the Moonlight for his payment. Just last year he took the Hospice workers and friends from church who helped with my mother during her fight with cancer. He knows when he offers to take someone there, they will always accept. He is never disappointed. Thanks

I was lucky to grow up in Owensboro. My parents are both buried there. It is what I return to in memory when warmer times and fond experiences haunt. Becoming an author and fulfilling the dream of world travel, having a life of great diversity and wide experience, it is strange that three things of childhood/yound adulthood haunt: the Derby, Kentucky autumns, and family events at the Moonlite. I was so pleased to find this guestbook just to note a fond thank you for all the wonderful meals and happy days this most special establishment provided. I envy the generations that now savor your joy and delicious meals. Wishing your staff all continued success. Though it has been decades, I still look forward to the hope of one last visit...someday.

In 1969, my father-in-law William Kimbley took his new daughter-in-law (me) to eat mutton (for the first time.) We went to the Moonlite, which already had a reputation for serving Owensboro's best Bar-B-Q. Well I was hooked! At the end of the week, my husband Larry and I went back to Georgia, where Larry was in college. I found out that I was pregnant, and my first symptom was that I woke up in the middle of the night craving MOONLITE Bar-B-Q. That was in October, and my father and mother-in-law went to the Moonlite a couple of weeks later and bought some mutton and brought it on ice all the way from Owensboro, KY to Atlanta, GA. During my long pregnancy we came up to KY twice to see relatives, and our frist stop was to the Moonlite, and then twice my in-laws brought down Moonlite Bar-B-Q to me. Well, my son was born, and he is now 34 years old, he was raised eating mutton at the Moonlite all of his life, as was our 33 year old daughter. We now live in St. Louis, MO and will be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary this Friday, May 7th. We are coming to Owensboro to eat at the Moonlite on Sunday for our anniversary and Mother's Day. PS. Several years ago there was a story in the Messenger Inquirer where Henderson was challenging saying that they had better Bar-B-Q than Owensboro. I fired off a quick email to the editor and told them who made the best Bar-B-Q and that was Moonlite! Keep up the good work, and we will see you all on Sunday the 9th! Feel free to you any or all of my comments for advertisement purposes. I will sing the praises of Moonlite Bar-B-Q to anyone who wants to hear them. Constance L. Kimbley

I had always heard of Moonlite BBQ and had never had the chance to eat there, my husband and I came to owensboro on our anniversary just to look at some old car's that he had seen on a car lot while he was delivering grain to the grainery a few day's before that, and I told him that someday I was going to Moonlite BBQ to eat, that I had always wanted to eat there rib's and BBQ that everone I had talked to said that they had the best rib's that you could find, so although he was under the weather he said well let's stop and eat. I was very very pleased although my husband couldn't eat but a few bite's I really enjoyed it my self. I will someday have to try it again, I will have to bring my two son's and let them see what real BBQ is all about. I really enjoyed my meal. Thank's Wanda Hesson

I really have enjoyed your site. My father passed when I was little. My entire family has tried to make his burgoo. Although ours is good it is not his. I am going to try your recipe and I appreciate you'all sharing it with us. Originally from Hopkinsville now in Nashville and I have to drive or make my own hickory smoked bar-b-q/ribs etc. Thanks again and may God Bless You! Feel free to email me if you wish or will see you in Owensboro one day. Murray Wall

My dad was from Owensboro, but after my grandparents died I seldom got back there. I made it there last summer (2003) and visited some cousins. I suggested that we go out to eat, and they recommended Moonlite Bar-B-Q. You place is WONDERFUL. Not only are all the varied bar-b-q'd meats great, but the vegetables and deserts are delicious. I will definitely make it to Ownesboro more often, both to see family, and especially to eat at Moonlite! Keep up the great work!

Hello, I'm emailing to compliment your food and restaurant. I was there on the evening of the 23rd of March. The food was outstanding and the service great! I've never eaten at a lot of Barb-B-Q places, but yours is the best I've eaten. The barbeque sauce is amazing and don't ever change one thing. I know that the next time or if I ever do get to get back to Owensboro, I will definitely be dining in with you. Thanks for the great meal, Shawn Andrew of London, formerly of Jamestown, KY.

I was down in Owensboro back in 1998 for business at the CMI/Alcoa facility in Hicksville. A friend of mine took me to the Moonlite for lunch one day and I was hooked! My dad grew up in Paducah and moved to Detroit just after WW2. I am a Yankee/Hillbilly and proud of my Kentucky roots. Next to Starne's in Paducah the Moonlite is tops in my book!

I had the pleasure of eating at your inn last year during the USSSA baseball tournament. We had unfortunatly waited toward the middle of the week to eat there, but still we had to visit one last time before we left. This cause for what I can only describe as a very content, but uncomfortable trip home to Alabama. But all I can hope for in the future is that we will find our way back there sometime soon. For even up till now my wife and I still on occation talk about our visit to your buffet. Until then all I can say is Good Luck and God Bless......Mike Rouse

Prior to retireing to South Carolina we entertained at our hoe for over 20 years with crowds of friends ranging from 100 to over 500 in later years. We always served Burgoo made by a local caterer BUT upon moving to the Hilton Head area we wanted to keep the tradition going on a smaller scale and startee ordering Moon Lite Burgoo and found it to be the best we ever served (or enjoyed). Only regret is that it took us too long to discover the great taste and the convenience of ordering from Moonlite. Thanks for helping us keep the tradition alive in South Carolina.

I not sure when i can get back. But I met someone from pikeville today and talked for hours about home and of course the subject of food came up. She told me you had a web site and am glad to see it. I hope the frozen overnight mutton is as good as fresh.

He stated in a recent newspaper article thatthe best barbque is what you were raised on. Well I was raised on Moonlite and can remember sitting on one of the stools at the bar and eating a chopped mutton sandwich more than once. Heritage goes a long way and so does tradition.

I am now 48 yrs. old and I have been eating at Moonlite since I was a little bitty girl, whose parents loved Moonlite too. It is amazing that the quality is always consistently outstanding, considering the quantities that you must prepare. You're are always the first choice for birthday, anniversary dinners, holiday get-togethers and celebrations of job promotions, etc. You have been a very important and stable part of my life for as long as I can remember.

You have the best bar-b-que around. I know of several people here across the river that travel to O-boro for special occasions. In fact, this New Years Eve we plan to come to visit you. I'm from Beaver Dam and have been coming to your establishment for years. I've told so many people about your food and have got them started going. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a great and prosperous New Year. God bless you all, Donna Williams

I grew up in Owensboro and do miss the bar-b-Q. I'm beginning to think I'm the only one out here that knows anything about "how to make great bar-b-q" and no one has ever heard or tasted Burgoo. Can we please get a store out here. By the way, I'm bringing my Fiancee home over Christmas and we will be stopping by. She's going to flip when we get into the parking lot!

Grew up in Owensboro but have not lived there in 32 years now.....but every time I get back that way to visit family I always stop in and eat and of course take some cans or even a gallon or two of Burgoo home, and to my sisters who live in Washington and Florida who don't get the chance to get to Owensboro, well.....of course I am a nice sister and always get them something from you folks to send each Christmas, and year after year....they exclaim ...there just isn't anything better for Christmas than mutton and burgoo. Folks...yea you the one reading this right now, that hasn't tried the mutton and burgoo yet from Moonlite Inn in Owensboro, Ky....don't try it if you don't want to get totally hooked on this great food.....there just isn't anything better ...and no place that can compare. be nice to yourself and your family....go on...buy some mutton or burgoo....Merry Christmas all....and to all a good night.....12-08-03.

We can't find it up here but now that we have your site we will order it and once again experience the taste of southern hospitality. Thanks for sharing it.

Having moved here from Henderson and our daughter went to college in Owensboro, we have to come to moonlite on every trip we make back home. We end up bringing cases of burgoo back here to family and friends. When someone visites from there,, guess what ? Yes,, they bring burgoo when they come. WE LOVE IT !!!! We will be there friday nite (the 28th) for dinner. Some discount coupons for burgoo would be nice,, haha. See you then. Don and Joan Lovelace

I grew up in McLean County, KY, neighbor to Daviess County. Often I think of the times my Granddad on my mother's side would take the entire family out to eat at Moonlite. It was a good opportunity to try and have the entire family out to eat. Just the ring of a stout plate of mutton and a bowl of burgoo eat at my heart. I remember fondly the days that my Granddad Wiggins would start early in the morning with my Grandmama and the "big black kettle" starting the yearly burgoo brew. It would always be made in the fall so we could eat on it all winter long. Truth be told it didn't last long. From the sounds of it, me and the rest of my mother's side of the family will be dining there around the Christmas Holiday. LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!

It has been almost 7 years since I've last vistited moonlite, I was so impressed and over the years always yearn to return. On my current job, I mentioned KY, and a wonderful place for b-bque-moonlite, and wondered was it still there, interesting enough, my co-worker logged immediately into your web site and told me with great enthusiasm he too loves moonlite and orders from you often. I am so glad to know you have expanded among the years and are well known across the nation. As they say, first impressions are everlasting, and I plan on planning a trip with my family just to enjoy eating there again this summer. Keep up the wonderful cooking tradition, your quality of food and fine cooking remains in the hearts of millions of people for many many years!

When I was a child, in the early to mid-50's, we lived on Bosley Rd., just up Parrish Ave. from the restaraunt. My parents and I used to eat there at least once a week; sometimes more. My Dad knew the man who ran the pits, and loved the ribs. Years later, in '64, I was married and my new wife, and I, spent a brief honeymoon in Owensboro. Of course, we had to come to the Moonlite. Now, almost 40 years later, I still miss the ribs and burgoo. No one in Texas seems to have ever heard of burgoo; they seem to think it might be some kind of gumbo. I tell them that it's "Kentucky gumbo." I didn't know you all canned it. I plan on buying a case as soon as I can. Well, that's enough hot air from me.

Your Restaurant is absolutely the finest place that I have ever had the pleasure of eating at! I've eaten there twice, and I am frustrated that Owensboro is so far from Alliance. I hope that your family are able to continue to operate your Restaurant, as I hope to take my family down there one day. I've had to work at our Hopkinsville, KY Facility a few times this year, so driving up to Owensboro isn't a big deal, but I need a little more time to make it from Northeast Ohio! Keep up the excellent work!

I would like to say that your Bar-B-Q is the best that I have ever had. It all started about 4 yrs ago when myself and some friends took a motorcycle ride from Salem to Moonlite because we have heard so much about it, this is about a 90 mile motorcycle ride for us one way. To make a long story short we always try to get a bunch of people together for a ride to your store every Memorial Day weekend depending on which ever day the weather is best. Thank you for the excellent Bar-B-Q.

As an Owensboro native, I have GREAT memories of the Moonlite. When my mother made a recent trip back to the 'boro I had her bring back a 5 gallon container of burgoo. It was heavenly as always! Thanks for providing consistently great food that makes those of us that know Moonlite turn up our noses at other barbeque!

I was born and lived in Owensboro for 29 years. Altho I think South Florida is the greatest place on earth to live, I have never found anything here to compare with your mutton. I'm in Florida more than 33 years and that is the only thing I miss about Ky. Keep up the good work, if I get within 100 miles I always stop in for at least a sandwich.

Wow,,,looking through the guest book you certainly have made an impression on many people across the country. I guess I am no exception, born and raised in Owensboro I miss the wonderful bar-b-q. There is no where else you can get that taste of home. Thanks for posting a website so that those who are homesick can have a taste of home anytime. I am sure to be a frequent online customer. I only come home once a year, but i am sure to eat mutton and burgoo everytime i am there. Again, thanks and nice web site!!

My wife and I enjoy the Moonlite so much that if we can't come once a month, we feel deprived. I always have the BURGOO and BLACKBERRY COBBLER--special treats for me, after having lived in New England and Idaho. Barbeque anywhere else just isn't the same! We've been here so often that the staff recognizes us, and we feel at home. We love to give (and receive!) Gift Certificates for birthdays and Christmas.

While it's great to have access to your wonderful BBQ via phone, online, and now in Wal-Mart stores, it sure would be nice to see the Moonlite expand. Yes, I'm talking franchise possibilities and not just for my own personal consumption. May I suggest you put store number two in Bowling Green, KY? Please email me with ideas and suggestions because I'd love to have you guys in this town too.

After reading in Stern's ROADFOOD book about the great BBQ at Moonlite, we dropped in for the first time about 8 years ago. Well, 8 years later and a hundred or so visits under(?)our belt we are ready to announce our thoughts . We moved to Southern Indiana to be closer to our kids and grandkids in 2000, At least that's what we told them !! In reality, we moved from SoCal to this area to be close to the MOONLITE, the family is a bonus !! We enjoy the casual approach to the buffet and the friendly chatter between patrons as we move along down the line. Now if I could only get the "Fast Time-Slow Time" thing down, we could time our visits a bit better. Keep up the good work, and keep making that Blackberry Cobbler too !

I have been meaning to add my input to your guestbook for some time now. My husband and I ate at the Moonlite back in March and are still telling people about it! It was probably one of the best places we have EVER eaten for real, southern homecooking. (The mac n cheese was awesome!)The selection of side items and BarBQue were unbelievable! Everything was so tasty and we throughly enjoyed our visit. It is worth a trip to go eat there. Thanks for a yummy lunch and great hospitality. We will be back sometime!

We went to dine at Moonlite BBQ on a Saturday afternoon and we had a good time. Brian and I always enjoy Moonlite. Guess what? This Russian friend told me Moonlite become his favorite resturant while his staying in U.S.A. He told me once that Russia would be more than thrilled to have Moonlite. Way to go Moonlite folks!

Greetings Master Chefs of the BBQ, My father, brothers and I spent the past weekend in Owesboro at the Motorsports festival where we were treated to the best barebecue I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Our hosts, Jeff Jones (the executive director of the Owensboro Area Museum of Science and History) and his lovely wife Nancy, told us that under no circumstances were we to leave the city without tasting Moonlight Bar-B-Q. I had the chopped mutton, the country ham, the cornbread, the 'nana puddin' and the burgoo and I must say again that it is the best I have ever had. I would have to say that quite possibly the highlight to the glorious buffet, though, was the mac&cheese. It has long been a running joke in my family that restaurants shouldn't even bother making mac&cheese because you can't taste it anyway. Until last Saturday I had never found a restaurant mac&cheese that could top the box variety. I could not find a single item on the buffet that was not the best I've had, literally, and I tried them all. My wife is jealous that she didn't get a chance to have any so, unless I plan another 10-hour drive, I had better check out your mail order page. Not for my own selfish reasons though, just to keep peace in the family. Cheers and you WILL see me again! ...Brad

My sincere gratitude to your establishment for producing the absolutely finest barbecue I have ever tasted. I have eaten many times in your restaurant, and my family traditionally purchases lots of your ware every year for the 4th of July. I am a graduate student at Western Kentucky University, and I have brought students from WKU up the Natcher Parkway to Owensboro several times so that they can experience Moonlite for themselves. Once, I brought a carload of international students (2 Icelandic and one Nepali) to Moonlite, and we had a great time! I was also there with a group when President Clinton visited in 2000. I am planning yet another trip this summer or fall for several Pakistani friends I have made here at Western. To the Bosley family, keep up the excellent work you all do. Moonlite is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

Had the amazing luck of being taken to your restaurant by the folks at the Baskin Robins icecream plant where I was visiting and doing some automation software. I LOVED your place and have been telling EVERYONE whom I meet who lives or travels within a few hundred miles of your place -- About your Marvelous Moonlite Bar-B-Q. Just read a writeup on it in the Los Angelese Times and my mouth started to water so I had to order some of your fantastic smoked meats. All the best -- to the best, George Margolin

I love your mutton. I grew up in Louisville and have lived in Chicago the past 20 years. No Yankees know what mutton is so I always have to wait and get it from a relative. It's great to see I can now order from you. However, I put in my name on your mailing sheet and an error comes up and says to only put in digits for my phone number. I did --- three times and it still wouldn't take. Thanks so much.

I am so excited to know I can order Moonlite Barbeque online. I am originally from Rockport, IN, but now live in Indianapolis. I am home visiting for Christmas and my mother told me I could order online. I got so excited that I had to place an order immediately. Every time I come home to visit, we try to visit your restaurant. I love the chopped mutton and burgoo. I tell my friends all the time how good your food is. They have no idea what I'm talking about. I will have to take some of the burgoo in to work and have them try it. Thanks again. Now I'll be able to order chopped mutton and burgoo whenever I want. HOW WONDERFUL! Hi to Mom and Dad in Rockport.

I grew up in Owensboro from birth to 13 years till we moved south in 1978. I even lived on McFarland Ave all that time, That close to Moonlight. I remember the paper plates stapled together when you got take out. Everytime we went back up to visit relatives my Aunt always had mutton and burgoo waiting for us when we arrived, mmmm mmm mmm. We always looked forward to that. You never know what you have till its absent in your life. I love being able to purchase your products and still get that great Moonlight flavor sent to my doorstep. I haven't been to visit since 1984 but one day I'll bring my family there and it will be a guaranteed stop. Being in the military I ran across a person who has a sister in Henderson and he never once heard of Moonlight. Well I told him about it and when he went to vist he said he ate till he hurt. It's great that the beacon light will still continue to shine showing me the way back to the best Bar B Q in the world.

Why don't you give weights, volumes and clearer descriptionsin your on-line catalog? I was all set to buy country ham & some sorghum syrup but you don't say how much ham for $9.20 or how it is packed. How much (by volume) sorghum am I getting for $2.79 and is it pure sorghum or cut with something?

I tell you...This place is the bomb when it comes to old fashioned barbeque. I grew up in Waverly Ky just down the road from Peak Brothers Barbeque and I can tell you that these places are the only people in the world who can cook....next to my dad. I have two young children and my wife and I have already started them on the Moonlite tradition. I have live in Paducah.Murray,Des Moines IA,Moline Il. and traveled to alot more.....NO ONE can even come close to you guys.....KEEP ON COOKIN'!!!!!!

Been living in Phoenix 25 years. Got married on the Hunter's Moon just so we'd always have an excuse to come back home (to Evansville) for our anniversary. This year is #26. Have missed 'good' bar-b-que for so long, finally got to come back. Moonlite is GREAT (the web site is nice too)

I was born near Owensboro in 1936 and was spoiled at a very early age on the very best flavored and smoked mutton on the planet. Whereever I go the comparison pales to the magic you can perform with a few old goats. (the meat, not the owners ) I have wished many times to enjoy the crunchy end pieces and dreamed of the day I could order on-line. Imagine my delight when coming across the USA Today mention including your phone number and then was excited to be given your web site. My order accompanies this note. Hurry. It must give great pride to know so many people have come to identify the Moonlite with the very best features of Kentucky. ( do you miss the drive-in? ) All the best for many more decades of scrumptious mutton and burgoo. Jim Cecil

I am an Owensboro native and moved to Colorado last year. Boy what I would do for some chopped mutton and burgoo right now. My family and I love Colorado but they don't have any idea what real Bar-b-que is. I plan to mail order some things for Christmas - I know it won't be the same as getting in that wonderful buffet line and the smell - oh the smells. Thank you Moonlight for some wonderful memories!

Stumbled upon your site while doing some invetigative work. I must say that it's very well done. There is nothing better tan "GOOD" Bar-B-Q and the next trip that my wife and I make to Athens, Alabama to visit relatives we will make it a point to detour by Owensboro for some of your Bar-B-Q. Just reading all of the other peoples comments makes me want to take off your way tonight! Don Lewis

I moved from Owensboro to Alabama back in 1989, and met my husband here and he took me out for some BBQ and when they brought me that sandwich with some sort of yellow slaw on it, I about died. There is no doubt about it. Moonlite BBQ is the best there is and when I am there visiting family your restaurant is the first place I want to go.

My wife and I live just outside of Saint Louis MO, and discovered your Diners Heaven as I think of it, last year while visiting friends in Tell City, Ind. We just came back again, with 12 30 0z. cans of your Burgoo. We have now consumed over 26 cans here at home in the past 10 months, am hooked, and would love to see your products in our stores if not a Moonlite Inn in Saint Louis. To sum it up, your food is exceptional and supurb in every way.

I just moved back to New Hampshire after living in Owensboro for a little over a year and I love MOONLITE..when my parents came to visit me I took them to MOONLITE and my dad who hates getting his fingers "gooky" even enjoyed the BBQ..when I told my dad BBQ he immediatly thought of the BBQ we get here in the NorthEast which is dripping with sauce and not very good at all..he was very impressed with your BBQ...I am glad that there is a website now I can have a little piece of Owensboro in New Hampshire...Roberta

Being in the north east it always makes me feel good to go home and get a bowl of burgoo, and a mutton sandwitch. Keep up the good work!!

Moonlite is the absolute BEST place I have ever eaten. I married an O'bo girl in 1980 and wound up moving there & living there for 2 years. My wife brought me to the Moonlite & I fell in love with the place! Oh, those Thursday night buffets! Still a bargain, from what I see here. We wound up here in NJ, and I missed that great Bar-B-Q so bad I couldn't stand it. So until we split up in '89, we would go back to O'bo to visit here family and we would hit the Moonlite! You just CAN'T get real Bar-B-Q up here at all, and FORGET about mutton & burgoo! But in the mid-80's my soon to be ex mail ordered some Moonlie for my b-day & surprised me! And now I found this site so I will be indulging again, definitely getting some cans of that awesome burgoo! Kudos and may the Moonlite live forever!

My husband and I were in owensboro for a class and the best part of the trip was finding your resteraunt. I have never tasted such quality food and never at a buffet style, usually it is a more low quality food with buffet style but each and every dish was quality. The only suviouners I purchased from kentucky was from your resteraunt. I brought home the canned mutton and also purchased your cookbook so I can try my own... Thank you again for the experience....

Born and raised on BBQ from moonlite, I am now in the military and travel around to many places. We are able to visit home about twice a year. Everytime we visit we make sure we are pack some mutton with us when we leave. I have been able to share it with people in New Jersey, Georgia, and eastern Kentucky. I have always heard favorable responses from them. I like it so much, that I purchased gift certificates for my family for Christmas gifts. My two cents. Scott

I married someone from Owensboro. We live in Lexington, but every time we go to Owensboro we try to make it to Moonlite. It's become my favorite restaurant in the state of Kentucky. Certainly the best buffet anywhere. My last visit we ate there twice in a twenty-four hour period. Thanks for keeping the wonderful tradition alive for so long. Is there any chance of branching out and opening another Moonlite in Lexington? Just wishful thinking.

When I was a child and we visited town we would drive all over visiting cousins and other relatives we had not seen in a long time. These trips into the country were always completed by having dinner at the Moonlite by myself with Dad. I miss him and the times we had together at the Moonlite.

My reasons for posting here are a bit different from most. I've not been to Owensboro, but am writing a community guide for Owensboro for a local publishing company based in the Columbia, S.C., area. While seeking information on your community I ran across your site. Since I'm a lifelong fan of good Bar-B-Q as well as a professional writer I had to stop in when I ran across your site. Pretty impressive, even though you seem to be refurbishing it a bit just noes my mouth water, just browsing through your recipes. Might do some mail-ordering soon! In the meantime, I'm still seeking a little information that might help someone who needs to move to Owensboro. You know the stuff I mean: who and where to call to get the power turned on, the telephone, cable-TV service, and so on. Also the local radio and TV affiliates. Some of this information is on www.owensboro.com, but some of it seems to be missing. It's November 6, one day before Election Day. If anyone reading this in just the next few days can supply me with any of this information, I'd greatly appreciate it; and if I chance to visit Owensboro I'm definitely stopping by!

I am from Owensboro, born and raised, however when I left my children were 2 and 3 years old. Even though we ate Moonlite at least once every two weeks they could not remember the food. We came home last year for the first time since 1992 and the first place we headed was to Moonlite. We took our boys to the buffet....I thought they were gonna kill themselves, they ate sooo much - they still talk about the food and that the first thing they want to do when they go back to Ky. is go to Moonlite!!!! Thanks so much for the food and the memories. Linda

We just visited Owensboro to see our DeLacey, Kunze, and Lee families. One of our favorite parts of visiting is a regular trip to Moonlite. We took our daughter-in-law from New Mexico there for the first time on July 30th. It was her first experience with Southern BBQ. She enjoyed her meal thoroughly. She liked the ribs the best. My Mom always has coconut cream pie. We enjoy everything! Thanks for always making our trip to Moonlite and Owensboro a pleasure. Rhody and Donna Hornovich Troy, Michigan

My wife and I first ate at Moonlite in 1997. We were living about 1 1/2 hours away at that time but, from the first time we went, we would often travel to Owensboro JUST TO EAT AT MOONLITE! (The only thing we did regret about having to travel so far was that it took SO LONG between the time we left our home and the time we finally got to enjoy the bbq. But, now that we live in Evansville, we don't have to suffer near as long. ) The food has always been great and the service is unbeatable. I can't really single out just one food item to compliment because EVERYTHING is delicious. (although I really do love the chocolate-pecan pie...YUMMY!!) Every waitress we've ever had has been very friendly and attentive. One thing I really like is how attentive the waitresses are concerning my drink...I drink a lot when I eat and the waitress usually has our glass re-filled after just a couple drinks of pop. The great service combined with the great food ALWAYS makes for a very pleasurable dining experience for us. We will definitely be back. Very satisfied customers, Alan and Cheryl

Have enjoyed your barbque buffet many times but one memorable time was eating at Moonlite the same time an out-of-state college basketball team was there. I walked up to the dessert section,and as I was trying to make a decision from the many choices offered, I heard one very tall young basketball player say, "Oh my, I've done died and gone to heaven". I guess that could sum it up for many Moonlite customers. THanks for the good food and pleasant surroundings.

Since I am from Owensboro, having been graduated from Owensboro High and ky wesleyan College, I just happened to find your web site. The last time I was in Owensboro (many years ago) my wife, judi and our son Chad had dinner at the Moonlite. Our dear friends Sarah and David Purdy took us there and it was a very delightful evening. Enjoyed all of the great food. I hope to be able to order some great chopped mutton and burgoo. hello to all in Obo

WOW.........All I ever hear out here in the Pacific Northwest is MOONLITE BBQ. Ever since my daughter married Shane from Owensboro that's all he talks about. Well, I finally got the chance to eat some real BBQ last weekend. I had the opportunity to travel to Nashville and took the time to drive up to Owensboro to meet "The Family" and have some Moonlite BBQ. It was FANTASTIC!!! I'm looking forward to ordering from the internet and having a Moonlite BBQ night at our home here in Bellingham, Washington. Thanks Pat!

Just wanted to say I've been going to Moonlite Inn ever since it first opened, & every chance I get to come to Owensboro thats the first place I head to. My mom was born in Owensboro, so we use to visit there quite a bit when I was younger, & I remember Moonlite Inn when it was a small orange building. The food has always been fantastic. Thanks for the memories from the past & the one's from today that my children will have.

I grew up in O'boro and worked at Moonlite for several years during my high school days until I joined the Air force. Now I'm married to a woman from Oklahoma and each time we come home she can't wait to eat at Moonlite. I'm now stationed in North Carolina and cant find good Bar-B-Q anywhere out here. When my parents come to visit they always bring me a cooler full of Moonlite Burgoo and chopped pork and mutton. And as much as I hate too, I do share with the guys and gals at the base. Hey Pat, Jane, Fred, ever thought of moving to N.C., they need some help when it comes to Bar-B-Q....hahaha Keep up the good work and cant wait to taste your cooking again.

I had the pleasure of eating at the Moonlite last summer and it was great! When my friends told me they needed a ham for New Years Eve, I knew who to call. The ham (and the chopped mutton and pork) arrived right on schedule and was fantistic! My cold blodded Wisconsin friends all wanted to know how to get to Owensboro so they could try out the Moonlite for themselves. Thanks for the prompt, friendly service and the GREAT FOOD.

I,m setting here at work and the subject of Barbeque comes up. Well, since I was born a raised in Owensboro, I consider myself an expert on the subject. Most folks down here don't even know what burgoo is. Once I accessed this web site, my expertise was verified. Thanks again Moonlight. When I come to OBO or one of my relatives comes to the coast, I know I'll get some burgoo and mutton. By the way, my aunt is a waitress there. Guess who she is.

Hi, I was raised in Owensboro, and lived there for 34 years until I moved to Kissimmee, Florida 13 years ago. My Dad and I would stop on the way home to pick up a takeout order of the best Bar-B-Que around. My Mother still sends me Bar-B-Que for a X-Mas present. About 5 years ago, my brother in law and a few friends, were going to the Bahamas for lunch, as my brother in law was a pilot for a huge construction co here in Florida. He asked where I would like to go for lunch if I could go anywhere I wanted to go. I told him about Moonlite. Well, the trip was on. In about 2 hours, we arrived in Owensboro, hopped a cab, and had one of the best lunches I have ever had at Moonlite. Needless to say, we loaded up on packaged goods , and we were on our way. I guess this was the most expensive lunch I have ever had, but, well worth it. I will be placing an order via internet. Thank You, Sincerely yours, Joe Alvey

I am now a college freshman near Lexington and I brought back some mutton up here and the gang went nutts over it. I can't believe that the world hasn't converged on out nice little community for this wonderful delectable delight. Once a year can not be near enough for the world to excperience this wornderful food, so your mail order business must be booming. Keep up the terrific work and can't wait for my next break to come home to MOONLITE. "Moonlite Bar-B-Q down on Parrish Avenue!"

My hometown is Owensboro, Ky. I've been going to the Moonlight since I was a kid. I introduced my wife of 3 and a half years to Moonlight and now, when we head to Ky, all she talks about is hitting the buffet as soon as we get into town. The food is great - plenty of it too. The mutton is the best. And the cornbread - how much butter do you put in there....Soooooo good. I recommend the Moonlight to everyone who goes that way - even if it's an hour or two out of their way. Keep up the great work - and keep that mutton coming. Thanx Tony Scherm

Back in the old days, when I was a U.S. Army helicopter pilot, we required constant flight training to stay combat ready. We also required food to keep from getting hungry. Owensboro had two things that helped us, an airport and Moonlite BBQ. Unfortunately some misinformed, bitter people got the Owensboro area put off limits. Now that I am retired from the Army, they can't stop me from driving up. I brought my wife to Moonlite BBQ for the first time Labor Day weekend. It was as good as I remember it. Keep on cooking good food and giving good service.

I'll be looking for some more of the best sauce around soon. My BBQ's over here are the hit of the Americam Community here. I get invited to all the best events (as long as bring the BBQ) Thanks for giving me a taste of home from so far away. I'll be back in July....save me some mutton.

I grew up in Owensboro over 5o years ago. The bar-b-que there has always been great. Visit after visit, Moonlite has exceeded the competition. It is still one of the few places where real mutton can be found. The buffet puts Las Vegas to to shame. Keep it coming.

I visited the Moonlite Bar-B-Q twice in the past two months. Once with my Mother, who passed away earlier this month. The next time with my Brother and Husband when we buried my Mother in Utica. The Moonlite has always been a "landmark" in Owensboro that we are sure to visit on each trip to Daviess County. Your waitresses have always been cordial to us. The food is wonderful. We won't miss a visit to the Moonlite every chance we get. In honor of my Mother, Dorothy Nell Epley Travis
