"Their slinger is legendary: a breakfast mountain of hashbrowns topped with a hamburger patty that topped with eggs that are topped with chili, cheese and onions."

"On the weekdays, I'd say The Mud House, which has a great version of a Slinger, which is a variation on a classic St. Louis dish that traditionally has ground beef, chili, potatoes, eggs, and cheese. At The Mud House, they'll do it with Andouille sausage or faux meat with a really great chili, cubed potatoes, egg, and cheese. That's a great hangover breakfast if you need it."

"Five of our favorite classic slingers as well as five modern takes of this St. Louis treasure - The Mud House’s slinger has been on its menu for about two years and is one of the café’s top three sellers for a reason: Though this vegetarian version of the classic St. Louis slinger is rich and hearty as-is, customers can also order it with pork."

Nicole Plegge

"Until The Mud House made its debut, vegans and vegetarians were unable to enjoy the magic that is the St. Louis slinger, with its heart attack-inducing combo of chili, hamburgers, hash brown, and eggs. But at this coffee shop, you can get the Mud Slinger with roasted potatoes and black bean chili or switch out the eggs with tofu scramble for the Vegan Slinger. So hearty, even die-hard carnivores won't miss the beef."

"And The Mud Slinger, a concoction of roasted potatoes, cheddar, onion, veggie black bean chili, and two sunny eggs served on top, is an all-time favorite."

Dan Rozier

"Their made-from-scratch menu includes a perfect portabella reuben and a spectacular mud slinger—a breakfast platter piled high with roasted potatoes, cheese, onion, black bean chili, an egg, toast, and bacon or ham."

Heather Riske

"The Mud House's slinger is a rich, hearty and vegetarian meal, which also offers ham and bacon on the dish for meat-lovers as well."
