One of the Best Saint Louis Restaurants Support The Military

A recent poll discovered 72% of St. Louis residents support free sweet tea for active military members.

Being an active military member just got a little sweeter.  While the temperature starts to climb, more folks will start drinking iced tea. For those in the military they can have free sweet tea with an order of  Saint Louis Ribs.

“I’ve been in the business for over ten years and have to say, the military has been a huge part of our success,” claims Anita Matthews, co-founder of Ms. Piggies’ Smokehouse.  ”These brave men and women do things most Americans won’t do.  They work in conditions that many folks only have seen in the movies.  I’m proud to be in a position where I can support our active military members.

Every Saturday, from April 15 to May 15, 2011 active card carrying military members will receive Free Sweet Iced Tea from the Ms. Piggies’ Smokehouse on 10612 Page Avenue in Saint Louis with valid id.  For those who live in Saint Charles, they may visit Ms. Piggies’ Smokehouse Express located in New Town at St. Charles and receive a free medium soda instead.

“I’m looking forward to a good turn out every Saturday at our New Town at St. Charles location,” says Matthews.  ”If we can find more great businesses to partner with this spring, we would love to do more cross-promotions in community”

According Wikipedia the oldest known recipe for sweet ice tea was published in 1879 in a community cookbook called Housekeeping in Old Virginia by Marion Cabell Tyree, who was born in Texas
