Sharp's Tavern in Hermann located off the main drag for some of the best cheeseburgers in the state! And the beer is cold and cheap as well.

From Race Staff:

Lexington - grilled hamburgers, hotdogs, fruit, water, ice, sports drinks, and protein bars.

Waverly - Scout Troop BBQ from 4-10pm; burgers, dogs, cole slaw, potato salad, water; also "grab-n-go" sacks by the ramp with ham & cheese sandwiches, fruit & water

Miami - BBQ Tuesday night, pancake breakfast Wednesday morning sponsored by the City of Miami; likely food available the whole time it's open.

Glasgow - food and drinks all day Wednesday, sponsored by Boonslick Tourism Council. Details to follow.

Cooper's - the best Thai food you can find within 200 miles, from 4pm to after dark, plus regular American fare, ice, water, drinks, snacks, etc. The kitchen will serve breakfast if there is enough interest

Noren/Jefferson City - ice and water (way too much red tape so far for anyone to want to sell food)

Hermann - Fruit & drinks?

Washington - possibly drinks

St. Charles - BBQ pork steaks, brats, snacks and drinks available lunchtime on Friday till 4pm.
