Fort Scott

The Holmtown Pub
206 N. National Avenue
(620)-223-1477
Added by: Delta George, Fort Scott
Favorite Menu Item: Pork Chops
Comments: The Pub has the best pork chops I have ever had! For $10, customers get a butterfly chop (easily feeds two), choice of potato and salad. You won't find white table cloths and fine china at the Pub, but you can find a tremendous chop at a great value.

Iola

El Charro
19 W. Madison
(620) 365-7771
Added by: Carla Nemecek, Iola
Favorite Menu Item: Although they have an extensive menu at El Charro - I can hardly order anything but the Enchiladas Verdes! Two cheese enchiladas topped with pork tips, cheese sauce, lettuce, tomato, sour cream and guacamole. The pork is tender, juicy and with the flavor of Mexico. Served with rice, beans and bottomless chips/salsa. For less than $10, if you go away hungry, it is your own fault.

Lawrence

715
715 Massachusetts Street
(785)-856-7150
Added by: Amy and Craig Good, Olsburg
Favorite Menu Item: various homemade sausages and pork chop
Comments: Michael Beard is co-owner and chef. He purchases only locally produced Duroc pork. He purchases the whole hog and processes it all in house. He makes and cures his own ham, bacon and fermented sausages. Michael is a very creative chef who utilizes the whole pig!
