nice sleeper: Rosedale on the boulevard. Good and cheap. As for sauce, I crave gates constantly. Found a sauce out here called Stubbs thats basically a poor man's Gates. I make do. As for best sandwich, Oklahoma Joe's by a country mile. Best feature of KC cue? Burndt ends son! New Yorkers don't even know what those are.
Screwed up, I meant they toss the tray at you at Aurthur Bryants. If I go to Bryants and they are not rude, I feel like I got cheated. I love it when they are pissed! Did anyone ever have to help an out of towner in line at Gates? "Dude, you gotta grab that tray, last week I saw them reach over the counter and slap a lady. The foods great, getta tray!"
Nick is right about the atmosphere of Aurthur Bryants. I love the way the guy stoops down to look through the little window and yells at you, "Whaddya want?", then turns and takes a huge steak knife to a loaf of WHITE bread. When the old man was there, he used to close the joint for the month of Feb and go fishing. He wat up high at the cash register next to a HUGE jar of pickles and would ask you. 'Pickles?", then stick his HAND into the jar, grab a bunch and throw them on your plate. Great Bar B Q. I love Gates too and listen up, there is a place on 105th and ROE that just kicks A**!! Its called Brobeckers. Holy mackeral, the food is unbelievable!! Its as good as Aurthur Bryants and Gates too. Its different too and I like that. I mean we all like different kinds of hamburgers etc. Here is a tip---Take som Ham Salad home with you in a container. Best I have EVER had. Something else, I forgot, if you don't grab your tray as they throw it at you, it goes on the floor. Heh, heh...
Ahhh man this is a terrible post!! I live in Denver and can't find a decent BBQ joint. The first "real" job I had was in Shawnee Mission washing dishes for 90 cent an hour at the Hickory Stick BBQ resturant. Mighty fine ribs with a killer sauce. I've been spoiled every since ... there is no place I've traveled, in this great coountry, that can match the greatness of KC Q! No where,no way, no how .. KC is the the best.
my fav place for BBQ out here in san diego CA is a place called KC BBQ and ya randy it is the real deal BBQ like u get in KC man the owner is actually from there and he has a pic of him as a young boy with the hunt there it is a pure KC chiefs place to no matter what u can always go there and watch the games and enjoy the food i havent been in KC in years gawd i miss the food and that place but in KC my fav place was always Athur Bryants on brooklyn ave hope u know the place randy it is the best place but that is just my choice but when i get back there randy i will let ya know we casn go pig out on the BBQ and ill pay
When I used to live there, Rosedale was good, Sneads out by Martin City was good, and Wyandotte had outstanding ribs. Also enjoyed Heyward's every now and then. Also for a while, Bobby Bell's BBQ, by Metcalf South.
My favorite place to eat it is Arthur Bryants Nick. You should meet me there to throw the ball around on game day before they open. LC's is probably better in my opinion but the atmosphere isnt nearly as cool . Ribs better LC's, sandwiches better Arthur Bryants. Also have been liking Gates recently.
Arthur Bryants all the way. I love the vinegary gritty sauce and the atmosphere. GO in there and ask for a to go box, they will point back behind the counter to a roll o butcher paper and tell you "Der papa on tha wall" I love that place.
Owensboro, KY has been an unofficial title of "BBQ capitol of the world". BBQ Chicken, Mutton Sandwiches and Burgoo Soup are the main dishes.
I havnt really been to many barbecue places being young, so ive only really been to the ones in kansas city kansas, but i have 2 favorites one is Bates BBQ because the sauce is the sweet and the way the meat falls off the bone and throw some of there fries in there which is perfect to dip in the sauce it is really good, the other one is 7th street BBQ which i have been going to since i can remember but they have 5 different types of sauce rating on hotness and trust me the first time i tried the hottest sauce i coughed on every bite until i got used to the spicyness and the way they pack it to you is very cool and classic in a newspaper (maybe thats why they dont make the kansan newspaper any more?) and they include some bread in there and on the side these huge fries that can be as long as your foot sometimes that are really soft made so there is no grease on them like most fries and they melt in your mouth along with the BBQ it is a perfect combination them would be my favorite places for straight bbq.
Arrowhead is incredible,as I say week after week ad nauseum! But so is the BBQ. Its not on everyones list because of the regional wars which are especially competitive. Hope you can make it down TREY!
KC is my personal Mecca. I will HAVE to get there some day and watch the Chiefs. I thought KC BBQ was a tall tale, but I am very glad it's true! I've bought the seasoning and sauce from KC, but I can't imagine it fresh! Sucks that KC isn't first on everyone's list.
