Who doesn't love cheap eats?

Let us rephrase this. Who doesn't love a cheap meal that tastes amazing?

As inflation creeps up, finding cheap eats is getting more and more difficult.

According to a recent report by the Associated Press, the Federal Reserve is expected to announce one of the largest interest hikes since 1994.

This is a bigger increase than previously projected, according to the AP, and is a signal that "the central bank is struggling to restrain stubbornly high inflation."

Along with this, the cost of food has shot up, which means that everything in the supply chain will feel the affects from it. And trust us, our regular orders at our go-to places have increased in price! Consumers have also changed their shopping habits, especially at the grocery store, due to rising inflation, according to CNBC.

Plus, people are getting more concerned about food prices. In a survey conducted by The Harris Poll and Alpha Foods, 90% of Americans are concerned about food prices.

Prices of the foundations in the food pyramid such as meat, oils, grains and wheat have increased. And this is due to many factors such as the rising cost of fertilizer and energy, according to CNBC. There also have been food-export bans and disruptions from nations that supply wheat, oats, sugar, and palm oil, which are in most -- if not all -- foods.

With all of this being said, it's harder than ever to find a cheap meal that satisfies our hunger.

And although Las Vegas is thought to be a city of exclusive dining and expensive restaurant bills, we're here to prove this stereotype wrong!

Las Vegas is home to rich cultural communities with microcosms of authentic, local and cost-effective eateries.

Grab your bibs and wet naps because it's about to get a little messy. When out of towners think of Las Vegas they think of gambling, entertaining shows and hot weather but what they're forgetting is all of the great eats the city has to offer.

Vegas has been expanding it's culinary landscape for the past decade by bringing in more restaurants, upping it's recipe game and importing some of the best chefs in the world. Barbeque restaurants are staple in any city but do the plates in Vegas taste like home? We're glad you asked.

From saucy ribs, smoked brisket, pulled pork, roasted creamed corn and sweet coleslaw are just a few decadents the Vegas BBQ lifestyle has to offer. If this town does anything, it's not skipping out on their delicious meats and sides.

So who truly has the best barbeque eats in town? Well, there's a lot that goes into discovering the very best. Three things were looked when gathering this data: Price point, hours of operation and Google reviews based on a five-star rating. One star equals not the best and five stars means the restaurant is amazing. We added dollar signs to showcase if the restaurant is cheaper or expensive. The more dollar signs, the more expensive the restaurant. We added the hours of operation to show who stays open more days of the weeks and who stays open late.

It's nice to know who stays open for all of those late night barbeque cravings. Yes, we're just as guilty.

With sauces and rubs passed down through family recipes to going home full, our digital department scoured the internet to find the best barbeque restaurants in and around the Las Vegas valley. And yes, Henderson is just as much a player in the bbq games than one might presume. We hope you enjoy the list, and if you agree, let us know on social media.
