Devil's Elbow, MO - Geological Devilish Locations on Waymarking.com

Devil's Elbow, Missouri is one of the prettiest places on Route 66. The community got its start back in 1870 and was named for a particularly bad bend in the Big Piney River. Lumberjacks would float logs down the river and they would seem to always jam at the elbow in the river. There was a large boulder in the river at this point that some lumberjacks swore was put there by the devil himself just to cause them grief.

The historic Elbow Inn Bar and Grill dates back to the 1930s when it was the Munger Moss Sandwich Shop. Built by Nelle & Emmett Moss, the business was moved to Lebanon in 1946 when old Route 66 was realigned through Hooker Cut. This was once the deepest rock cut in America. When Route 66 was realigned in the 1940s through here it bypassed Devil's Elbow. Today, the Elbow Inn continues as a local BBQ joint and biker hangout. Stop by for a rest - but not suitable for children or "sensitive" adults. They have many womens underthings hanging from the ceiling...
