RestaurantBarbecue Restaurant
The roots of this venerable establishment were originally planted by Tennessee native Leroy “Van” Vandegrift, who moved with family to Oklahoma City, where he graduated from Central High. He served in the Army before working as a tool dresser in the oil fields of North Texas and began cooking for fellow roughnecks on rig sites. Around 1928, Van opened his first Pig Stand in a hotel in Wewoka, Oklahoma. It was a small little store serving barbecue such as the Pig Sandwich® and Ribs. The menu also included other types of sandwiches such as Liverwurst, Pimento, Chicken Salad, and Cream Cheese. In 1929 a second Pig Stand opened in Seminole and was then sold in 1935. Pig Stands were later opened in Wichita Falls, Texas and Wichita, Kansas.
On June 5, 1930, Van opened his third Pig Stand Location at 714 Highland in Shawnee. In the same year, Van married Thelma Maree Glenn. In 1935 the Shawnee store moved across the street to its present location.

- JDJustin DurbinFeb 11, 20261.0Fries were soggy, mac and cheese was horrible and ribs/ pulled pork was strange. My drink was all syrup. Do not recommend for my dog.
- JHJade HousleyFeb 8, 20265.0Food was really good and got it pretty quick! They were really kind and the restaurant was very clean!!
- CECraig EdwardsJan 20, 20265.0We had heard and read good things about Van's. We ordered a rack of ribs and a pound of sausage. It was all very good. The ribs were soooo good!
- MKMark KlingerJan 19, 20264.0Came by with the Okie Santas for our quarterly meeting. Look to see the look on people's faces when they see 60 Santas and Mrs. Clauses. Food was good. I ate the Brisket Salad.
- DKDale KightDec 31, 20251.0I ordered sliced brisket, baked beans and coast law when they brought it out to me.The sliced brisket was very thin and very dry and full of grisel. This is probably the worst brisket i've ever seen in a barbecue restaurant.I got my money back.I'm not eating at this place very poor layout on the inside the open sign on the outside of the building. You can hardly see it every time I drive past here. The place looks closed and out of business. They need to get a huge, bright, open sign. But it doesn't matter. I will not be back at this place again. Extremely poor I forgot to mention that the brisket was cold, not freshly cooked
