Honestly, just read all of them.
If I HAD to choose, though, I'd say Slapstick, Cat's Cradle, and Galapagos.
... but then I'd say the rest.

Or, you can go by his own grading of his work:
Player Piano: B
The Sirens of Titan: A
Mother Night: A
Cat's Cradle: A-plus
God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater: A
Slaughterhouse-Five: A-plus
Welcome to the Monkey House: B-minus
Happy Birthday, Wanda June: D
Breakfast of Champions: C
Slapstick: D
Jailbird: A
Palm Sunday: C

Breakfast of Champions is my all time favorite, but Slapstick is really good as well. Player Piano is awesome in a totally different way then the rest of his books, and I'm a sucker for reading about revolution, even if it fails.

i started to read slaughterhouse five but never finished it....eh....thought it was alright. maybe it gets better at the end.
just watched a movie last night (based on a book by vonnegut) about an american that poses as a natzi to spy on the germans....was pretty good.
